Review of Wind Field Characteristics of Downbursts and Wind Effects on Structures under Their Action

open access: yesBuildings
Downbursts belong to sudden, local, and strong convection weather, which present significant destruction for structures. At any given time, there are approximately 2000 thunderstorms occurring on the Earth.

Numerical study on moving downburst with inclusion of the environmental wind

open access: yes
Thunderstorm downbursts can impose critical wind loads on long-span transmission line structural system. Existing research has predominantly focused on stationary downbursts, with limited attention given to the analysis of travelling downbursts ...

CFD and experimental modelling of an impinging jet for thunderstorm downburst simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A thunderstorm downburst in its simplest form can be modelled as a steady flow impinging air jet. Although this simplification neglects some important atmospheric and physical parameters it has proven to be a useful tool for understanding the kinematics ...
