文摘The strong wind characteristics of the Runyang Suspension Bridge( RSB) including the wind speed and direction, the turbulence intensity, the turbulence integral length and power spectrum are analyzed based on measurement data from the wind environment monitoring subsystem of the structural health monitoring system (SHMS)of the RSB and field tests during strong winds.

It is found that the mean wind speed of the strong northern wind is a little smaller and the mean wind direction is more stable than that of the typhoon.
