Published in 2017 at "Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jweia.2017.03.015

Abstract: Due to the increasing windage area of container ships, wind loads are playing a more important role in navigating the ship at open sea and especially through harbor areas. This paper presents 3D steady RANS… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jweia.2018.11.034

Abstract: Abstract Downburst produces strong winds near the ground and causes severe damage to buildings and people. The non-stationarity of downburst is characterized by moving downdraft and pulsed jet to the ground. In practice, both characteristics… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Physics of Fluids"

DOI: 10.1063/5.0223286

Abstract: The existing theories for along-wind loads on slender structures, based on the “strip assumption” overlook the three-dimensionality of turbulence. However, numerous experimental phenomena contradicting the “strip assumption” highlight the need to consider the effects of… read more here.
