The Wind Engineering and Experimental Aerodynamics (WEEA) Program at Iowa State University focuses on the study of fluid-structure interaction problems that include, mainly the detrimental effects of wind on civil and mechanical structures, and the environment, and a wide range of aerospace-related research. The WEEA program consists primarily of 6 separate tunnels.
- Tornado Micro-burst Simulator
- Icing Tunnel
- Laminar Flow Tunnel
- Blue Tunnel
- Bill James Wind Tunnel
- Aeronautic and Atmospheric Boundary Layer
