Wind Loading on Scaled Down Fractal Tree Models of Major Urban Tree Species in Singapore
Estimation of the aerodynamic load on trees is essential for urban tree management to mitigate the risk of tree failure. To assess that in a cost-effective way, scaled down tree models and numerical simulations were utilized. Scaled down tree models reduce the cost of experimental studies and allow...
