The number of tall buildings has significantly increased in all around the world due to rapid
technology and urbanization advancements. However, the wind-induced response has …

Bridging the gap between wind and structural engineering, Wind Loading of Structures
demonstrates the application of wind engineering principles to ensure maximum safety in a …

Globalization of construction industry, burgeoning growth of tall buildings, and the recent
focus on the development of unified international codes/standards has increased the need …

In comparison with atmospheric boundary layer winds, which are customarily treated as
stationary, winds associated with gust fronts originating from a thunderstorm/downburst …

Wind loads on structures under the buffeting action of wind gusts have traditionally been
treated by the “gust loading factor”(GLF) method in most major codes and standards around …

This paper reviews the basic ideas, developments, and codification practices of different
calculation methods for equivalent static wind load (ESWL) in the past about sixty years …

This paper presents the results of wind tunnel studies and numerical studies on a '+'plan
shaped tall building. The experiment was carried out in an open circuit wind tunnel on a 1 …

Due to the continuous urban development, it becomes necessary to investigate the complex
aerodynamic interactions within the built environment. These interactions lead to a …

In this study an analytical procedure is developed based on the Kalman filtering approach to
estimate modal loads applied on a structure using limited measured response of the …

Modern super-tall buildings are highly sensitive to wind-induced vibrations due to their high
flexibility and low inherent damping. Tapering the cross-section of buildings is an …
