...Sandip D. Kulkarni; Mark W. Deaver; Eric R. Pardyjak; Mark A. Minor; John M. Hollerbach We present the methods, design and development of a unique atmospheric wind flow simulator that ultimately aids in adding atmospheric wind display to a virtual environment (VE). Iterative design, in synergy...

...Sue Ellen Haupt; Frank J. Zajaczkowski; L. Joel Peltier Modeling high Reynolds number (Re) flow is important for understanding wind loading on structures, transport and dispersion of airborne contaminants, and turbulence patterns in urban areas. This study reports a high fidelity computational...

...Christopher J. Baker; Mark Sterling This paper describes the results of wind tunnel tests that were carried out to measure the aerodynamic characteristics of an electrical multiple unit (EMU) vehicle in a cross wind. The measurements were made on a 1/30 scale model of the Class 365 EMU...

...) simulation model for urban CT and focuses on critical validation issues that need to be addressed to achieve practical predictability. Progress in validation studies benchmarking with flow data from wind-tunnel urban model simulations and actual urban field studies are reported. Despite inherent physical...
