... as the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), including dispersion, wind catchers, the aerodynamics of buildings and structures, and wind energy [ 21 – 28 ]. Several studies in the literature used Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations to model the ABL [ 29 – 33 ], allowing the calculation of aerodynamic forces...
