<p class="MsoNormal">The target audience for this seminar includes faculty and graduate students with an interest in wind hazard research. No prior wind engineering background is necessary. The seminar will include a broad overview of ground level atmospheric
wind and its interaction with infrastructure, quantification and statistical characterization of wind loads, and current trends in experimental and computational methods. Major wind research facilities will be introduced, including the NHERI experimental facilities
at the University of Florida and Florida International University.</p>
