58,000 wind velocity samples with 1-hour duration are classified by maximum sustained wind speed and 3-second gust speed. The repository also includes 110,847 2-minute and 87,257 10-minute samples. Mohanad Khazaali and colleagues created this database in 2022 to support structural analysis and risk assessment.
Use Cases
- Simulating wind loads on structures based on correlated wind velocity time histories.
- Assessing structural risk based on maximum sustained wind speed intensity measures.
- Selecting representative wind samples for engineering analysis based on 1-hour, 2-minute, or 10-minute durations.
Strengths
- 58,000 wind samples with a 1-hour duration.
- 110,847 samples with 2-minute and 87,257 samples with 10-minute durations.
- Samples are classified by two industry-standard intensity measures for structural analysis.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
