Wind Extremes over Built Terrain: Characterization and Geometric Determinants

Jing Wang,
Maider Llaguno-Munitxa,
Qi Li
et al.

Abstract: Cities feature complex and heterogeneous topographies that create highly-variable airflow patterns and dynamics. The resulting extreme high and low winds challenge urban design's quest for maintaining a safe and comfortable environment. This study investigates these urban wind extrema by conducting large-eddy simulations (LESs) in four American cities with distinct topographic features and links the resulting winds to geometric indicators. By analyzing the profile and spatial variation of the wind extrema, the… Show more
