The International Advanced School (IAS) will cover synoptic, mesoscale and thunderstorm meteorology, wind storms and climate changes, wind monitoring and thunderstorm detection, downburst modelling and signal analysis, laboratory and CFD simulation of downbursts, Monte Carlo simulation of wind velocity fields, fundamentals of bluff-body aerodynamics, wind loading and response of structures to thunderstorm outflows, full-scale monitoring of structures, damage induced by local storms, research and codification perspectives. Researchers and students in universities and research and educational institutes, relevant engineers and governors are all very welcome to join the IAS.The IAS is part of the ERC-funded project THUNDERR – Detection, simulation, modelling and loading of thunderstorm outflows to design wind-safer and cost-efficient structures.
