Description:

Participated in research at Florida International University (FIU) Wall of Wind (WOW) Experimental Facility and worked with a team to analyze the pressure distribution on several different irregular shaped one-story houses at different wind directions. The paper reports the pressure distributions on scaled models comparing different shapes.
