Wind Engineers, JAWE, 1985 Downbursts can be a significant hazard to aviation safety as well as to agricultural activities, structures and buildings on the ground. Major damages on the surface, airline incidents in the past, worns on the mechanism of the downburst occurrence and recent efforts to detect eho downburst are reviewed.

Automated Recognition of Macro Downburst Using Doppler Weather Radar
Atmosphere, 2022 In light of the macro downburst’s ground divergent flow field characteristics and high reflectivity, this paper proposes an algorithm for identifying the downburst area using a Doppler weather radar low-level radial velocity and reflectivity factor ...

Semiempirical Models of Speedup Effect for Downburst Wind Field over 3-D Hills
Atmosphere, 2023 Downbursts occur frequently in mountainous regions, such as the southwest of China, and causing extensive damage to engineering structures. While some researchers have developed semiempirical models for the speedup effect, most are based on the wind ...

Oklahoma Downbursts and Their Asymmetry
Journal of Climate and Applied Meteorology, 1987 Abstract Doppler radar data collected each spring in 1979–1984 with the two Doppler radars operated by the National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) are used to investigate the asymmetry of low-altitude divergent outflows of convective storm downbursts in central Oklahoma.

Using crop fall patterns to provide an insight into thunderstorm downbursts [PDF]
, 2023 This paper examines whether crop fall patterns due to thunderstorm downburst-like events can provide an insight into the flow structure of a downburst. To explore this phenomenon, a novel three-dimensional analytical model for the velocity flow field is ...

Thunderstorm Downbursts and Wind Loading of Structures: Progress and Prospect
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020 In 1961, Davenport published a paper, considered by most to be a critical work in the study of wind engineering, in which meteorology, micrometeorology, climatology, aerodynamics, and structural dynamics were embedded in a homogeneous framework of the ...

Computational simulation of thunderstorm downbursts and associated wind turbine loads [PDF]
, 2013 textWind turbines operate in a constantly changing wind environment. This requires modeling and simulation of extreme events in which the wind turbine operates and a study of associated turbine loads as part of the design practice and/or site assessment.
