Experimental Investigation on Aerodynamic Characteristics for 3D Bluff Bodies: Pentagon, T, C and L-Shape Buildings

Tall buildings are mostly sensitive to wind loads and the effect of wind varies in accordance with the location, shape and height of the building. It is of utmost importance to have an aerodynamically modified building in order to reduce the wind loads on tall buildings. For the present study, a seq...
