Efficient aerodynamic design can be achieved by applying modern CFD tools. Different deck cross-section was investigated to investigate the optimal candidate and archive possible material savings. The aerodynamic performance was investigated for flutter check, torsional divergence, and galloping instabilities. The guide vanes were analyzed to achieve possible vortex shedding vibration suppression.
The Bjørnafjorden crossing with end cable-stayed bridge offers an aesthetic solution.
The self-excited forces were extracted by the CFD method.
