The Fifth International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE2010)

Scientists, academics, technologists, architects and engineers from around the world will assemble at the Fifth International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE2010) in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA, May 23-27, 2010. CWE2010 will include technical sessions with presentations and discussions on all topics related to computational wind-engineering development and application.

This symposium seeks to facilitate the exchange of the latest scientific and technical information in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), particularly in its application to wind engineering. It is a multi-disciplinary matter concerning multifold topics. Computational Wind Engineering (CWE) is more than CFD modeling.  CWE2010 includes topics with field and wind tunnel measurements supporting CWE model development and evaluation.

The First International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE1992) was held in Tokyo, Japan. It was initiated by the Japan Association of Wind Engineers to activate and promote research on CFD technology and to develop research fields using CFD in wind engineering. CWE1992 was followed by CWE1996 in Fort Collins, USA, CWE2000 in Birmingham, England, and CWE2006 in Yokohama, Japan.
