ME5303 Industrial Aerodynamics

 

In this module, students will learn to analyze wind loading on buildings under steady and unsteady wind conditions. It covers wind data, atmospheric boundary layer, atmospheric turbulence, static wind loading, dynamic wind loading, wind environment, and wind tunnel studies; also included is atmospheric dispersion. This module further develops students' knowledge on various aspects of fluid mechanics covered in their undergraduate modules. There is a compulsory Term Paper project for this module. This module is intended for graduate students and engineers interested in the analysis and design of buildings to withstand wind loading.
