A digital mapping of the literature on vehicle-bridge-wind systems

This dataset is the result of a systematic search and mapping of the literature relevant to the vehicle-bridge-wind system. The search phrase used to search the databases listed below can be found in tabulated form in one of the spreadsheets. The core component to this search phrase is that the title, abstract or keywords should include all three of the words vehicle, bridge and wind. Using one possible syntax for the boolean operators, the search phrase might look like:

("numerical analysis" OR model OR modelling OR modeling OR experiment OR field OR "wind tunnel" OR parameter OR "case study" OR coupled OR interaction OR analysis OR vbi OR safety) AND (("bridge" AND "vehicle" AND "wind")) AND ("long span" OR "long-span" OR floating OR "cable stayed" OR "cable-stayed" OR suspension OR long OR "floating tunnel") NOT ("short span" OR "short-span" OR rail OR train)

Note that the search is specific to long-span bridges and road vehicles. The phrase was used to search the following databases:

Scopus

Engineering Village

Web of Science

Science Direct

Oria/NTNU

Following a screening process, data of interest was extracted from the articles through structured searches and readings. A description of this process and a succinct presentation of the findings of the search and mapping will follow in the form of a published journal article.

The "Database" sheet gives a structured list of the main contributions from all texts considered relevant for the mapping process. The citation keys used in the spreadsheet can be mapped to the referenced texts through the .bib file. Each text is pre-categorized based on readings of the abstract/conclusion into one of the following areas, describing the main contribution of the piece:

Vehicle Dynamics

Bridge Dynamics

Vehicle Aerodynamics

Bridge Aerodynamics

Vehicle-bridge Aerodynamics

Vehicle-bridge Interaction

Texts are also classified by research level:

Evaluation: development/demonstration of a novel modelling method

Lab Validation: validation of models by experimental data or advanced numerical models in a virtual lab (e.g. computational fluid dynamics)

Field Validation: the use of field experiments to verify, validate and/or calibrate existing models

Each column can be filtered by entering a phrase in the appropriate cell in the table at the top of the sheet. Enabling macros will allow the sheet to update each time the content of said cell changes. The "Filtered List" is then a list of all texts that satisfy the filters.

This is intended as a living document and any and all comments, concerns and questions are warmly welcomed.
