"Computational Fluid Dynamics for Wind Engineering give readers a detailed understanding of the use of CFD in understanding the wind loading on structures. The reader will gain knowledge of fluid mechanics, turbulence in fluid mechanics, turbulence modelling, mathematical modelling of wind engineering problems, the finite difference method for CFD, solutions to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, visualization and animation in CFD, and the application of CFD to building and bridge aerodynamics. In addition, the book will be written with a strong emphasis on the application of CFD to practical problems in wind loading to ensure the reader is able to apply CFD to real problems of turbulent flow around buildings and bridges, and can compare CFD analysis with wind tunnel measurements, field measurements and the ASCE-7 pressure coefficients."-- Provided by publisher
