Assessment of Wind Engineering Issues in the United States Committee on Natural Disasters

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The Committee on Natural Disasters, National Research Council, is establishing a panel of experts in wind engineering who will represent the private sector, standard setting organizations, and federal, state and local government agencies. The purpose is to assess the current status of the field of wind engineering research and applications, and to develop recommendations for future activities. The panel will deliberate on issues related to research performed during the past two decades; the interaction between diverse disciplines, e.g., meteorology, structural engineers, designers, economists and others; undergraduate and graduate education in wind engineering; and international wind engineering research activities among other concerns. A report will be produced and disseminated throughout private and public organizations and professional groups specializing in wind engineering.
