| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A new experimental system to make a sudden drop of atmospheric pressure was constructed and the influence of a pressure difference between the inside and outside of a building on the mechanism of tornado damage was clarified. The magnitude of the differential pressure is affected by the descent speed of the outside pressure and the sealing degree of the building, and the sealing degree is governed by the ratio of the building volume and the clearance area. The differential pressure force on the building due to the rapid pressure drop as well as a overshoot wind force caused by gusts can be reproduced by a numerical fluid analysis. The procedure was applied to actual tornado damage to trace the damage mechanism of the building and showed that the estimated value of the tornado wind speed becomes lower than before. Furthermore, by a statistical analysis of strong wind observation records, the probabilistic model of the occurrence of the overshoot wind force was demonstrated.
