Tornadoes disaster in India and their impacts
, 2023 A tornado is a natural disaster that keeps on coming in India and other countries. Many people have lost their lives in India due to this disaster. The history of Tornadoes in India dates back from 1838 to 2021.

Simulated tornado optimization [PDF]
2016 2nd International Conference of Signal Processing and Intelligent Systems (ICSPIS), 2016 We propose a swarm-based optimization algorithm inspired by air currents of a tornado. Two main air currents - spiral and updraft - are mimicked. Spiral motion is designed for exploration of new search areas and updraft movements is deployed for exploitation of a promising candidate solution.

Vulnerability due to Nocturnal Tornadoes [PDF]
, 2021 This study investigates tornado fatalities that occurred between sunset and sunrise from 1985 to 2020. Previous literature has suggested that nocturnal tornadoes are associated with enhanced vulnerability because they are difficult to spot and occur when

Design of stick-framed wood roofs under tornado wind loads
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2022 Light-frame wood construction comprises nearly 90% of the housing industry in Canada and the United States. The roofs of these houses can be constructed either entirely on site or using prefabricated trusses.

Axisymmetric Tornado Simulations with a Semi-Slip Boundary
Fluids, 2017 The structure of natural tornadoes and simulated analogs are sensitive to the lower boundary condition for friction. Three-dimensional numerical simulations of storms require a choice for turbulence parameterizations and resolution of wind near the lower
