WIND engineering

It is with great pleasure that I announce that from mid-May
Prof. Luca Caracoglia (Northeastern University, Boston MA, USA)
will be UniGe Visiting Professor.

During the visiting period, starting from 17 May, Prof. Caracoglia will hold a PhD course entitled
"Probability-Informed Wind Engineering against Synoptic and Non-Synoptic Wind Hazards".
All information is contained in the attached file.

This Virtual Specail Issue deals with papers on CFD simulation of pedestrian-level wind conditions around buildings, published in the Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics (JWEIA).

The laboratory for fluid structure interaction (LIFE) at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) in Tarragona, Spain is looking for a Postdoc candidate to apply for the Beatriu de Pinós scholarship. The candidate will work in a project involving fluid-structure interaction in offshore engineering with applications to wind energy and the dynamics of offshore structures.
