New Approach Enhances Wind-Resistant Design of High-Rise Buildings Using Improved Particle Swarm Optimization
Researchers have introduced a more efficient approach to designing wind-resistant high-rise buildings by combining particle swarm optimization (PSO) with an enhanced penalty function to dynamically ...
Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...
In a long-awaited, historic step toward “real" not cookbook wind engineering, the Structural Engineering Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers recently issued a recommended alternative ...
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) reported on Sept. 17 that it has done additional analysis of the wind "loads" that the World Trade Center (WTC) towers were originally ...
Prompt site assessment of wind damage from major storms such as hurricanes and tornadoes is a crucial step in determining the extent of property loss. The assessment of wind damage is important for ...
