Wind tunnel
Our wind tunnels are well-suited for experimental investigations of issues related to civil engineering, including bridges and buildings, and maritime vessels and structures, including ships and offshore structures.
In our wind tunnels, various structures such as bridges, buildings, ships and maritime structures, as well as wind turbines and other offshore installations, can undergo extensive testing.
