Downbursts are severe wind systems originating from thunderstorm clouds, and their strong horizontal outflows can pose serious hazards to natural and built environments. In the context of the activities of the European project THUNDERR-Detection, simulation, modelling and loading of thunderstorm outflows to design wind-safer and cost-efficient...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the full-scale behavior of a 50m tall triangular freestanding lattice tower located in Sânnicolau Mare, Romania. The tower has been equipped with an ultrasonic anemometer, a temperature sensor, two triaxial anemometers and six strain gauges to measure both wind as well as structural parameters. The...
