title = "Particle image velocimetry measurements of wake flows of various bridge sections",
abstract = "Using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) we investigate the influence of leading and trailing edge geometry on the wake flows of various elongated cylinders in smooth uniform flow. The results present a comparison between the mean wake flows, as well as the vortex shedding activity found to occur in each case. Pressure measurements were recorded on the surface of the cylinders to examine the corresponding fluctuating and mean forces exhibited by each model tested. Significant variations in the wake topology and aerodynamic behaviour of the four cylinder geometries tested were observed.",
