Comparative study of tall building response to synoptic and non-synoptic wind action

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal
Until the beginning of the 21st Century, the characteristics of wind for purposes of structural analysis and design, as reflected in wind codes worldwide, were based on the behavior of wind currents in the vicinity of the ground surface observed in so ...

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.

An empirical model of a downburst

Engineering Structures, 2000
Abstract A “downburst” was defined as a strong downdraft which induces an outburst of damaging winds on or near the ground. Such events normally occur during thunderstorms. It has been well documented that downbursts cause frequent failures of high voltage electricity transmission towers in Australia, and several other countries.

Numerical simulation of downburst winds

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2009
The wind field of an intense idealised downburst wind storm has been studied using an axisymmetric, dry, non-hydrostatic numerical sub-cloud model. The downburst driving processes of evaporation and melting have been paramaterized by an imposed cooling source that triggers and sustains a downdraft.
