Over recent years, the application of performance-based design (PBD) has continually grown in tall buildings and other structures excited by large wind loads. PBD also become a mainstream approach to assess reduce risks rehabilitation existing structures. The significant wind-related economic losses incurred every year around world have prompted researchers develop methods reframe engineering e...

National design guides provide essential guidance for the of building drainage systems, which primarily ensure basic objectives preventing odor ingress and cross-transmission disease through water-trap seal retention. Current system only extend to buildings 30 floors, while modern tall frequently over 100 exceeding predictive capability current in terms operating conditions. However, same are b...

Large eddy simulation (LES) has been widely applied in wind-related problems. A key issue to ensure obtaining accurate results by LES is to generate an appropriate inflow field satisfying the physical wind characteristics in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). The methods adopted in this study for inflow field generation include two statistical methods (the random flow generation method (RFG)...
