CWE is becoming more relevant with advances in software and hardware technology. Various CFD workflows in high performance computing environment are developed. The main approach is to develop effective CFD based models for each of the elements of the A. G. Davenport Wind Load Chain, for various design topics and wind systems. Efforts to represent the influence terrain include explicit upwind exposure modeling, implicit inflow turbulence generation techniques, topographic effect assessments etc. These are then used as boundary condition to the LES of the aerodynamic forces where the peak pressure coefficients Cp are targeted for generating design wind loads on high- and low-rise buildings. Both synoptic (wind storms, hurricane) and non-synoptic wind systems (such as tornado and downburst) are considered. We are also looking through FSI modeling to assess dynamic effects. The wind load is dependent on both the shape and structural systems which the designer can optimized which in turn can lead to reduced loads. The robustness of CFD and FEM modeling is allowing the aerodynamic and dynamic optimizations. These workflows are also being applied for natural ventilation, air pollution dispersion, pedestrian level wind and building thermal/energy performance applications; pedestrian level wind assessment, complex topography effect on wind (speed-up). Our team is also working on applying these CFD workflows for community level wind (and other climate stressors) effect assessments.
