Book Wind Effects on Structures

Download or read book Wind Effects on Structures written by Emil Simiu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides structural engineers with the knowledge and practical tools needed to perform structural designs for wind that incorporate major technological, conceptual, analytical and computational advances achieved in the last two decades. With clear explanations and documentation of the concepts, methods, algorithms, and software available for accounting for wind loads in structural design, it also describes the wind engineer's contributions in sufficient detail that they can be effectively scrutinized by the structural engineer in charge of the design. Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is organized in four sections. The first covers atmospheric flows, extreme wind speeds, and bluff body aerodynamics. The second examines the design of buildings, and includes chapters on aerodynamic loads; dynamic and effective wind-induced loads; wind effects with specified MRIs; low-rise buildings; tall buildings; and more. The third part is devoted to aeroelastic effects, and covers both fundamentals and applications. The last part considers other structures and special topics such as trussed frameworks; offshore structures; and tornado effects. Offering readers the knowledge and practical tools needed to develop structural designs for wind loadings, this book: Points out significant limitations in the design of buildings based on such techniques as the high-frequency force balance Discusses powerful algorithms, tools, and software needed for the effective design for wind, and provides numerous examples of application Discusses techniques applicable to structures other than buildings, including stacks and suspended-span bridges Features several appendices on Elements of Probability and Statistics; Peaks-over-Threshold Poisson-Process Procedure for Estimating Peaks; estimates of the WTC Towers’ Response to Wind and their shortcomings; and more Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is an excellent text for structural engineers, wind engineers, and structural engineering students and faculty.

Book A Computational Wind Engineering Framework for Studying Climate Change on High rise Buildings in Dense Urban Areas

Download or read book A Computational Wind Engineering Framework for Studying Climate Change on High rise Buildings in Dense Urban Areas written by Alfonso Sebastian Teran and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structures in the built environment that are safe and serviceable under current wind loading conditions may experience problems in the coming decades as wind load characteristics get affected by rapidly changing climate. Given the high uncertainty in predicting future wind environment conditions, there is a need to formulate flexible adaptation strategies that mitigate climate change effects in urban regions. The present work proposes a multi-disciplinary framework to investigate and address the impact of climate change and the associated wind load effects on the built environment. As an example application of this framework, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are performed on a building located in downtown Toronto, under current and projected wind conditions to evaluate its response. The framework seeks to translate the range of predicted effects of climate change into actionable knowledge useful in the area of urban building design.

Book Computational Fluid Dynamics for Built and Natural Environments

Download or read book Computational Fluid Dynamics for Built and Natural Environments written by Zhiqiang (John) Zhai and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-24 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of simulating and analyzing built and natural environments using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. CFD offers a powerful tool for dealing with various scientific and engineering problems and is widely used in diverse industries. This book focuses on the most important aspects of applying CFD to the study of urban, buildings, and indoor and outdoor environments. Following the logical procedure used to prepare a CFD simulation, the book covers e.g. the governing equations, boundary conditions, numerical methods, modeling of different fluid flows, and various turbulence models. Furthermore, it demonstrates how CFD can be applied to solve a range of engineering problems, providing detailed hands-on exercises on air and water flow, heat transfer, and pollution dispersion problems that typically arise in the study of buildings and environments. The book also includes practical guidance on analyzing and reporting CFD results, as well as writing CFD reports/papers.
