Numerical simulation of terrain-induced vortex/wave shedding at the Hong Kong International Airport

The present study aims at simulating the shedding of vortex/wave from a mountain nearby the Hong Kong International Airport using a computational fluid dynamics model by employing high resolution terrain data without smoothing. The successful simulation of this shedding would have an important appl...
