Wind catchers are structures used for natural ventilation using the two basic principles of stack effect and wind induced natural ventilation and has recently attracted a lot of attention due to relying only on the free sustainable energy of wind and hence being able to reduce energy expenditure and greenhouse gas emission to a considerable amount. Even though this structures have been used for thousands...
Wind loads on buildings in realistic environments may be considerably different from those measured on isolated buildings. Neighboring structures may either decrease or increase the flow-induced forces on the building being considered. In this paper a rigid model wind tunnel test under conventional terrain C wind field was performed to the 1:250 reduced-scale model of a high-rise building with three...
