AIJ guidelines for practical applications of CFD to pedestrian wind environment around buildings

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present guidelines for using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques for predicting pedestrian wind environment around buildings in the design stage, based on cross-comparison between CFD predictions, wind tunnel test results and field measurements.

CFD Prediction of Wind Environment around a High-rise Building Located in an Urban Area

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-rise building surrounded by low-rise urban blocks in a turbulent boundary layer was calculated, and the results were compared with those of the wind tunnel experiments conducted by the present authors.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

LES of Fluctuating Pressures on a High-Rise Building Influenced by Windward Building

TL;DR: In this paper, the accuracy of LES to predict the fluctuating pressures on a high-rise building influenced by windward building is examined by comparison with experimental results, focusing on the case that local peak pressure occurs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recommendation of Gust Factor for Assessment of Pedestrian Wind Environment Based on Probability of Exceedance of Daily Maximum Gust Wind Speed

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a model equation of the gust factors based on field observation data at 152 sites, and confirmed the applicability of it to the assessment of pedestrian wind environment.
