Research activity in wind engineering (or environmental aerodynamics) has expanded rapidly throughout the United States. The Wind Engineering Research Digest keeps track of this far flung research effort, and publishes a summary of on-going research projects at annual intervals. Topic areas discussed include the following: Structure of wind; wind-wave effects; effects on urban areas; wind loading on structures; severe storms; design for hurricanes and tornadoes; full-scale testing; model testing; environmental factors; psycho-physical factors; legal factors; special problems; wind considerations in urban planning; building codes and regulations; socio-economic effects; international cooperation; and wind energy.
