Resumen
Wind loads have become one of the key influencing factors for the running safety of vehicles and comfort of passengers. The investigation of the wind speed spectrum characteristics of a moving vehicle under turbulent crosswinds is of great importance. Expressions of the wind speed spectrum of a moving vehicle were obtained from the von Kármán spectrum, based on Taylor?s frozen flow hypothesis. The influencing factors, including the ratio of the vehicle speed to the wind speed and wind yaw angles, were analyzed. The change rules of the wind speed spectrum peak and its corresponding frequency were also studied. The results show that the wind speed spectrum peak values of the moving vehicle were larger than those of the static vehicle. The wind speed spectrum peak values corresponding to the moving vehicle were first increased and then decreased, as the wind yaw angles increased. Some of the frequencies corresponding to the longitudinal wind speed spectrum values of the moving vehicle were smaller than those of the static vehicle. Therefore, the energy had been transferred to the lower frequency. For the moving vehicle, the frequency values corresponding to the longitudinal wind speed spectrum peak were first increased and then decreased, as the ratio of the vehicle speed to the wind speed and the wind yaw angle increased.
