Infrasound and the Dynamical Stratosphere: A new application for operational weather and climate prediction

Infrasound is low-frequency inaudible sound (< 20Hz), used as a waveform verification technique for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). In this thesis, it is shown that infrasound can provide useful additional upper atmospheric observations in a region where data coverage is sparse; beyond the middle stratosphere direct...

Super elements in high-rise buildings under stochastic wind load

The design of tall and irregularly shaped buildings becomes more and more usual. A profound understanding of the force transfer and the serviceability conditions in these types of structures is needed. The considered buildings have a building plan that is not constant along the height and the effects of the in-plane floor stiffnesses coupling...
