In this article we will discuss about the primary features and historical development of bluff body aerodynamics. Primary Features of Bluff Body Aerodynamics: The term "bluff body aerodynamics" is intended to cover the study of flow fields around, and force on, a body from which boundary layers are separating to form unsteady vortex flows in a wake region. The great [...]
Recent studies have concentrated on the effects of relatively minor aerodynamic modifications of building shape in reducing wind induced response of tall buildings. Effects of Aerodynamic Modifications of Building Shapes on Wind Induced Response of Tall Buildings: Wind tunnel experiments were conducted by Kwok and Bailey (1987), Kwok et al (1988), and Kwok (1988) to investigate the effects of aerodynamic [...]
