Fundamentals of Wind Engineering

9352265里德这个项目的目的是将实验组件在一个新的选修课程风工程的基础知识。 这是一门跨学科的高级课程，结合了环境和结构工程的风工程方面，以及工程气象学。具体而言，利用声波风速计来教授基本的测量和分析技能，这些技能对于环境和结构工程中与风相关的分析至关重要。解释和评估风速，强度和积分尺度的湍流不同的曝光和平均时间是课程的一部分。由于声波风速计可以连接到笔记本电脑，并很容易地运送到不同的地点，学生可以把风速计和计算机到附近的市区评估空气质量和行人水平风的影响。

9352265 Reed The aim of this project is to incorporate an experimental component in a new elective course on the fundamentals of wind engineering. It is an interdisciplinary senior-level course that combines the wind engineering aspects of environmental and structural engineering, and engineering meteorology. Specifically, a sonic anemometer is utilized for teaching basic measurement and analysis skills that are essential for wind-related analyses in environmental and structural engineering. Interpretation and evaluation of wind speeds, intensities and integral scales of turbulence for different exposures and averaging times are a part of the course. Because the sonic anemometer can be attached to a lap-top computer and easily transported to various locations, students can take the anemometer and computer to nearby urban areas for evaluating air quality and pedestrian level wind effects.
