Numerical simulation of the wind flow around a tall building and its dynamic response to wind excitation

Wind action is particularly important for tall buildings, both in providing a significant contribution to the dynamic overall loading on the structure and by affecting its serviceability. Whereas low and medium-rise buildings are fairly rigid, tall structures are characterized by a greater flexibili...
