Baniotopoulos C.C., Borri C., Stathopoulos T. (eds.) Environmental Wind Engineering and Design of Wind Energy Structures (CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences)

Springer, 2011. 358 p. ISBN:3709109523The book presents a state-of-the-art in environmental aerodynamics and the structural design of wind energy support structures, particularly from a modern computational perspective. Examples include real-life applications dealing with pollutant dispersion in the building environment, pedestrian-level winds, comfort levels, relevant legislation and remedial measures. Design methodologies for wind energy structures include reliability assessment and code frameworks.
