Study on wind load characteristics of gable roof under tornado

Abstract This research simulates the behavior of a tornado on a double-slope roof using the Ward tornado generator and the $$SS{T_{k - \omega }}$$ turbulence model. The effects of different ground roughness, slope angle, and wind field position on the tornado load characteristics of gable roofs were...
