Estimation of debris flight trajectories of roof cover from low-rise buildings

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: Taking inspiration from the use of the simplified uniform model of Peterka et_al and Cochran et_al , which can work well with probabilistic models (e_g, Grayson et_al, 2012), the authors investigate the use of multiplication factors to capture the local wind field effects above the roofs and in the wakes of source buildings. The aim of this paper is to develop an equivalent uniform wind speed that will capture the trajectories of debris elements originating on roofs of low-rise buildings considering the factors that affect the flight, viz., the speed of flow near the roof, the . . .
