Common Crystal Structures in Metals | Metallurgy

In this article we will discuss about the most common crystal structures in metals:- 1. Body Centred Cubic (BCC) Crystal Structure 2. Face Centred Cubic Crystal Structure 3. Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP) Crystal Structure. Metals are normally crystalline, or rather in solid state, they are almost synonymous to crystalline state. But their crystalline nature is seldom apparent (from the surface outlook) [...]

Interference Excitation of Tall Buildings | Wind Engineering

In a typical city environment where many tall buildings and structures are grouped closely together, the proximity of one building to another can influence the flow field around and the wind forces acting on the buildings. Such interference effects are particularly marked for a group of identical structures such as a line of chimneys. The interactions of neighbouring tall buildings, [...]
