ICWE 2015 - 14th International Conference on Wind Engineering

The International Conference on Wind Engineering (ICWE14) is the forum to present new knowledge of wind engineering and wind energy and to exchange experiences. Scientists, academicians, technologists, architects and engineers from all over the world will meet to tackle new challenges regarding sustainability and wind climate. Important themes for the conference include wind climate assessment, safety of structures, wind siting to harvest the wind and environmental issues. For a broader overview see scope.
