Superstructure Aerodynamics

Superstructure Aerodynamics is a specialized subfield of fluid dynamics that investigates the aerodynamic behavior and airflow interactions specifically associated with the non-hull, above-deck structures of marine vessels and high-rise architectural forms, distinguishing itself by focusing on drag, turbulence, and wind load characteristics unique to these elevated and often complex geometries.
