This essay examines the effect of wind on different high-rise buildings. By using RANS modeling in order to compute the flow of wind on a given structure, one can better understand how a design will perform in extreme situations. The use of computer modeling can help replace wind-tunnels, allowing for cheaper, faster testing of high-rise designs.
