Description and Table of Contents

Description

This volume contains wide-ranging and authoritative contributions on the following aspects of wind engineering research: wind - characteristics, exposure, simulation and environment; building aerodynamics, external and internal pressures; full-scale experiments; vehicle aerodynamics and dynamic response; mathematical modelling; aeroelastic instabilities; computational fluid dynamics, and design codes and standards.

Table of Contents

Evolution of turbulence structures affected by disturbances generated in near-ground part of atmospheric boundary layer On surf zone wind/wave interactions: offshore winds Experimental study of wind flow over model of valley Ground level winds and pedestrian comfort Design wind loads for low-rise buildings Use of gust speeds in wind hazard analysis High reyolds number simulation techniques and their application to shaped structures model test Investigation into the simulation priorities for wind tunnel tests on low-rise buildings Wind effect of dominant openings and porosity of internal pressures Drainage flow - model scale simulation and comparison with field measurements and theoretical modellingThese are just some of the contents
