The consideration of uncertainties in the model quality becomes more and more important with the development of new construction methods and design requirements. In addition to the traditional forced-based approaches, experiences and observations about the deformation behavior of components and the overall structure under different exposure conditions allow the introduction of novel detection and evaluation criteria. The proceedings at hand are the result from the Bauhaus Summer School Course: Forecast Engineering held at the Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar, 2017. It summarizes the results of the conducted project work, provides the abstracts of the contributions by the participants, as well as impressions from the accompanying programme and organized cultural activities. The special character of this course is in the combination of basic disciplines of structural engineering with applied research projects in the areas of steel and reinforced concrete structures, earthquake and wind engineering as well as informatics and linking them to mathematical methods and modern tools of visualization. Its innovative character results from the ambitious engineering tasks and advanced modeling demands.}, subject = {Proceedings}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AbrahamczykSchwarz, author = {Abrahamczyk, Lars and Schwarz, Jochen}, title = {Forecast Engineering: From Past Design to Future Decision 2018}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4036}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20191126-40364}, pages = {112}, abstract = {Institute of Structural Engineering, Institute of Structural Mechanics, as well as Institute for Computing, Mathematics and Physics in Civil Engineering at the faculty of civil engineering at the Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar presented special topics of structural engineering to highlight the broad spectrum of civil engineering in the field of modeling and simulation. The summer course sought to impart knowledge and to combine research with a practical context, through a challenging and demanding series of lectures, seminars and project work. Participating students were enabled to deal with advanced methods and its practical application. The extraordinary format of the interdisciplinary summer school offers the opportunity to study advanced developments of numerical methods and sophisticated modelling techniques in different disciplines of civil engineering for foreign and domestic students, which go far beyond traditional graduate courses.

This material summarizes the results of the project work done throughout the semester, provides an overview of the topic, as well as impressions from the accompanying programme. Wind Engineering is a particular field of Civil Engineering that evaluates the resistance of structures caused by wind loads. Bridges, high-rise buildings, chimneys and telecommunication towers might be susceptible to wind vibrations due to their increased flexibility, therefore a special design is carried for this aspect. Advancement in technology and scientific studies permit us doing research at small scale for more accurate analyses. Therefore scaled models of real structures are built and tested for various construction scenarios. These models are placed in wind tunnels where experiments are conducted to determine parameters such as: critical wind speeds for bridge decks, static wind coefficients and forces for buildings or bridges. The objective of the course was to offer insight to the students into the assessment of long-span cable-supported bridges and high-rise buildings under wind excitation. The participating students worked in interdisciplinary teams to increase their knowledge in the understanding and influences on the behaviour of wind-sensitive structures.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} }
