Influence of Turbulence, Orientation, and Site Configuration on the Response of Buildings to Extreme Wind
Atmospheric turbulence results from the vertical movement of air, together with flow disturbances around surface obstacles which make low- and moderate-level winds extremely irregular. Recent advancements in wind engineering have led to the construction of new facilities for testing residential home...
