Wind load analysis on low-rise structures encompasses the assessment of external and internal pressures induced by atmospheric flows on buildings up to approximately two storeys high. Such analysis ...

Simulation of wind flows around the model of Austin’s 321 West 6th Street illustrates the E-SE wind direction that resulted in the largest cross-wind response on the 58-story high-rise. The hotter the ...

Recently, there has been advancement in tall building design to achieve lighter structures, which led to an increase in the challenges that are related to wind resistance and cost efficiency. This ...

Scientists in China have developed an optimized energy management strategy for a wind-PV hybrid heat pump system that uses both thermal and electric energy storage. Using different seasonal ...

Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...
