Abstract
Two-dimensional viscous incompressible ßow past Þve generic bridge deck cross sections are
investigated by means of the discrete vortex method. The analyses yields root mean square lift
coe¦cients and Strouhal numbers for Þxed cross sections and aerodynamic derivatives for the
cross sections undergoing forced oscillatory cross wind and twisting motion. Fair agreement is
established between the present simulations and wind tunnel test results reported in the
literature.
