Aerodynamics
The wind effect everyday life and designers try to minimise the impact when constructing a new vessel, building, bridge or offshore structure. With a wind tunnel test you can predict the wind loads and pressure and thereby optimise the design regarding the wind forces.
Our services
Aerodynamic assessment of bridges
/Service
Test of components, sections and scale models of bridges.
Aerodynamic assessment of vessels
/Service
Wind tunnel test can ensure that the vessel meets the operational and class requirements.
Aerodynamic assessment of wind turbine wings
/Service
Aerodynamic services related to wind energy, e.g. sitting in complex terrain or icing on blades.
Aerodynamic tests for offshore structures
/Service
We perform wind tunnel studies for the offshore industry on numerous types of offshore structures.
Aviation aerodynamics
/Service
Aerodynamic services related to the operation of aircrafts and planning of related facilities.
Wind loads on buildings and structures
/Service
A good wind environment around a structure or area is central to usability and financial success.
