This paper summarizes the state-of-the-art techniques used to simulate hurricane winds in
atmospheric boundary-layer (ABL) for wind engineering testing. The wind tunnel simulation …

This study investigates the impact of complex heterogeneous terrain on mean wind speed
and turbulence intensity, highlighting the significance of terrain configuration in the wind …

Natural ventilation is generally preferred to mechanical ventilation because it saves energy
and protects the outdoor atmospheric environment. The present work focuses on the air …

Wind loads on tall buildings with porous double-skin façade (PDSF) systems were studied
for various wind characteristics. Experiments were performed on a small-scale building …

A computational model was proposed to simulate the homogeneous atmospheric boundary
layer (ABL) above rural, suburban and urban flat terrains for the neutral thermal stratification …

A novel approach, which focuses on the Reynolds stress in computational simulations of the
atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flow in an empty domain using the k–ε turbulence model …

Wind-tunnel modeling of Atmospheric Boundary Layer flows has primarily consisted of
simplified (purely uniform) upwind terrain conditions. This approach is easier to carry out but …

A modified design of the 'Counihan'vortex generator was proposed for purposes of part-
depth atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) wind-tunnel simulations. Three redesigned vortex …

The Amazon region stands out as Earth's largest and most prominent terrestrial convective
center, significantly influencing precipitation patterns through the substantial net radiation at …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and wind-tunnel (WT) tests can be
considered as boundary-value problems, where the inlet boundary condition, which is …
