WIND, zephyr, whirlwind, gale, scurvy, storm, tornado. Can such a force be tamed? Not exactly. However, it can be studied in wind tunnels, which makes it possible, among other things, to prevent catastrophes and damage to buildings and structures. Such research has been conducted by dr. Fabio Rizzo, together with co-workers from the Wind Engineering Laboratory at the Krakow University of Technology. The aim of the proposed research project is to study the interaction between wind and flexible roof structures made of cable net and membrane, which are particularly suitable for covering large spans in sports halls, stadiums and conference halls.
