Wind flow and sediment flux profiles for vegetated surfaces in a wind tunnel and field-scale windbreak

Catena, 2021
Despite many studies describing wind speed and sediment flux profiles in various situations, wind tunnel observations in the presence of live vegetation are infrequent and rarely combined with field measurements.

An experimental study on smoke back-layering and critical velocity in tunnel fires with canyon cross wind

, 2021
This paper investigated experimentally the thermal smoke back-layering and critical velocity of the highway tunnel in alpine gorge area with canyon cross wind. A series of small-scale tests were performed using a pool fire as the fire source.

The virtual wind tunnel

IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 1992
The design and implementation of a virtual environment linked to a graphics workstation for the visualization of complex fluid flows are described. The system user wears a stereo head-tracked display, which effectively displays 3-D information, and an instrumented glove to intuitively position flow-visualization tools.

A hybrid methodology for wind tunnel testing of floating offshore wind turbines

, 2020
This paper is intended to present the authors’ know-how about hybrid/hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) wind tunnel testing of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs), that was acquired in the last decade through a very intense activity. Numerical codes commonly

Portable wind tunnel experiments to study soil erosion by wind and its link to soil properties in the Fars province, Iran

Geoderma, 2019
Soil erosion controlled by the wind effect on the surface, has been largely studied by field in-situ measurements as well as laboratory or numerical simulations.

Wind flow and sedimentation in artificial vegetation: Field and wind tunnel experiments

Geomorphology, 2019
The flow dynamics within and immediately above an artificial plastic vegetation canopy are measured in the field and wind tunnel. Artificial plants created from wooden dowels and cable (zip) ties were arranged in a variety of arrays on pegboards where ...
