Abstract
The quasi-steady theory of galloping oscillations is applied to the prediction of galloping behaviour of tall towers of square section, in a turbulent boundary layer flow simulating the natural wind. Two theoretical models are used, one employing measured forces averaged over the tower height, and the other employing local sectional forces. Predictions from the model using local forces are said to be in good agreement with measured galloping characteristics. (A)
