This book brings together the peer-reviewed extended papers from the Third National Conference on Wind Engineering (3NCWE), held in Bucharest, Romania, on September 11-13, 2024. The conference was jointly organized by the Romanian Association for Wind Engineering (ARIV), the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest (UTCB), and the Faculty of Geography, University of Bucharest, and welcomed participants from ten countries across four continents.

The contributions showcase the diverse directions of current research in wind engineering, spanning structural response under wind and combined loads, computational and experimental aerodynamics, and atmospheric and coastal meteorology. Topics include wind-induced fatigue in steel structures, torsional flutter energy harvesting, CFD analyses of interference effects on buildings, seismic-wind interaction in tall buildings, full-scale damping estimation of towers, and the historical evolution of wind design codes. In addition, several studies examine wind phenomena in the Black Sea basin, such as sea breeze occurrence, storm boundary layer evolution, and comparisons between satellite data and numerical model simulations. This book also features laboratory investigations of velocity distributions in boundary layer wind tunnels, providing valuable experimental insights.

By combining structural engineering, computational modeling, meteorology, wind tunnel testing, and full-scale measurements, this book provides a valuable resource for both researchers and practicing engineers seeking deeper understanding of wind-structure-atmosphere interactions.
