Optimizing Glass Design: The Role of Computational Wind Engineering & Advanced Numerical Analysis

Wind induced pressure is a major design consideration for glazing design. However, the effects of façade geometry and urban terrain on wind loading are often difficult to quantify without costly and time-consuming wind tunnel testing. Accurate 3-dimensional data, covering most major cities, is bec...

description	Wind induced pressure is a major design consideration for glazing design. However, the effects of façade geometry and urban terrain on wind loading are often difficult to quantify without costly and time-consuming wind tunnel testing.
