Unresolved issues in wind shear encounters [PDF]
Much remains to be learned about the hazards of low altitude wind shear to aviation. New research should be conducted on the nature of the atmospheric environment, on aircraft performance, and on guidance and control aids. In conducting this research, it

Integrated SWCNT sensors in micro-wind tunnel for air-flow shear-stress measurement
We have developed SWCNT sensors for air-flow shear-stress measurement inside a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) “micro-wind tunnel” chip. An array of sensors is fabricated by using dielectrophoretic (DEP) technique to manipulate bundled single ...

An Analytical Model of Wake Deflection Due to Shear Flow
The main motivation behind this work is to create a purely analytical engineering model for wind turbine wake upward deflection due to shear flow, by developing a closed form solution of the velocity field due to an oblique vortex ring. The effectiveness

Pedestrian level wind environment around isolated buildings resulted from twisted wind profiles
The pedestrian-level wind environment influenced by twisted wind profiles were evaluated through a series of wind tunnel tests. In the tests, more than 200 Irwin sensors were installed to measure the wind speeds at pedestrian level around five isolated ...
