URBAN AERODYNAMICS: WIND ENGINEERING FOR URBAN PLANNERS AND DESIGNERS
Book ID/图书代码： 11724012B53568
English Summary/英文概要： Prepared by the Task Committee on Urban Aerodynamics of the Environmental Wind Engineering Committee of the Technical Council on Wind Engineering of ASCE. Urban Aerodynamics: Wind Engineering for Urban Planners and Designers introduces the basic tools and technology used by engineers to determine the effects of wind on city streets and structures. Familiarity with the fundamentals of urban aerodynamics offers many advantages to city planners and urban designers, most especially the opportunity to incorporate quantitative techniques into the design and development process. This volume traces the historical development of wind engineering techniques leading up to today’s use of boundary layer wind tunnel studies and computational fluid dynamics assessments. Examples show the application of wind engineering to address urban issues such as pedestrian-level wind control, design for hurricane shelter, urban summer breeze penetration, winter wind shielding, the natural ventilation of buildings, and dispersion of airborne pollutants. Current tools and techniques for both qualitative and quantitative assessment of urban wind effects are reviewed, and an extensive list of references is included. This book is a compact essential reference for city planners, urban designers, and architects, as well as structural and wind engineers.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 由ASCE(美國土木工程師協會)的風力工程學技術委員會旗下環保風力學工程委員會的城市空氣動力學工作委員會所編著。《城市空氣動力學：城市規劃者和設計師的風力工程學》介紹了工程師們用於確定城市街道和建築結構對風力的影響所需的基本工具和技術。熟悉城市的空氣動力學的基本原理，向城市規劃和城市設計師們，提供了這方面的許多優勢，最特別的是，造就了將量化技術納入設計和開發過程的機會。這一系列追溯了風力工程技術的發展歷史引領今日邊界層風洞研究和計算流體動力學評估的使用方法。
示例顯示風工程如行人級風控制、 處理城市問題的應用設計颶風住房、 城市夏季微風滲透、 冬風遮罩，屋宇署的自然通風和空氣污染物的分散。檢討的定性和定量評價的城市風力影響當前的工具和方法，並且包括廣泛的引用列表。這本書是城市規劃師、 城市設計師、 建築師、 以及結構和風工程師緊湊的重要參考。
