Abstract
It is well known that cylinder steel stacks are heavily impacted by vortex-induced vibration. However, the wind-induced vibration behaviors of tower-supported steel stacks are not clarified due to a lack of observation. We studied a stack
Key Words
tower-supported steel stack; strong wind observation; vortex-induced vibration; damping ratio.
