Integrating Wind Engineering Research To Curriculum Through Multimedia

A courseware development project, which aims to transfer the research results to curriculum through the multimedia technology in the multi-disciplinary area of wind cngineenng, is discussed in this article. This courseware, containing four modules, is designed to supplement certain senior undergraduate-level and introductory graduate-level courses in Civil Engineering, Atmospheric Science, and Architecture. The contents of the modules are based upon the research accomplishments in wind engineering at Texas Tech University. The purpose of this courseware is to enhance classroom instruction in universities which offer regular or short courses in wind-related subject areas.
