“…In addition, isolated high values are estimated between 32 and 36 m s −1 for RV 20a and between 36 and 40 m s −1 for RV 50a . High return values of up to 50 m s −1 for RV 50a as estimated by Lombardo (2012) for the West Texas region (United States) cannot be estimated for Germany. Note, however, that a value above 50 m s −1 has already been observed (see Fig.…”

“…New technologies, ranging from sensor-based systems (Committee on Developing Mesoscale Meteorological Observational Capabilities to Meet Multiple Needs 2009, Schroeder & Weiss 2008) to predictive models (Lombardo 2012), seek to reduce uncertainty concerning risks associated with the first factor (Smith 2009). The second factor relates directly to the concepts of adaptive capacity and resilience (see (Lorenz 2010) for a discussion).…”

“…Letchford (2015) discusses the possibility of including in wind codes guidelines for designing structures subjected to downbursts, as proposed already by Gomes & Vickery (1978), who are among the firsts researchers that recognized the need to separate wind velocity records according to the causative meteorological phenomenon. Moreover, recent studies confirm that the wind loads that control structural design in most areas of the continental USA are due to TS event (Lombardo, 2012;De Gaetano et al, 2014). These developments led to the consideration of TS winds in the revised map of wind velocities of ASCE Code 7 (2016), following previous advances of the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS / NZS 1170.2.…”

“…Letchford (2015), após uma revisão histórica do desenvolvimento do conhecimento sobre o assunto, examina a possibilidade de estabelecer normas de projeto para ventos ocasionados por correntes descendentes. Segundo Letchford (2015), Gomes e Vickery (1978) foram possivelmente os primeiros pesquisadores que reconheceram a necessidade de separar os registros de velocidades extremas do vento atendendo ao tipo de fenômeno meteorológico, sublinhando que analises posteriores confirmaram que as cargas devidas ao vento que dominam o projeto estrutural na maior parte do território dos EUA são devidas a eventos TS (Lombardo, 2012;De Gaetano et al, 2014). Ditos desenvolvimentos resultaram finalmente na inclusão dos efeitos de eventos TS na versão atualizada do mapa de velocidades do vento na norma ASCE 7 (2016), seguindo avanços já incorporados na Norma de Australia/Nova Zelandia AS / NZS 1170.2.…”
