ASCE705W is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of wind loading analysis for buildings and structures per the ASCE 7-05 Code. Specifically, wind pressure coefficients and related and required parameters are selected or calculated in order to compute the net design wind pressures.
2. In the worksheet for Simplified analysis, the design MWFRS wind load is calculated for each direction. The design MWFRS load is assumed to be the total wind load on either the width or the length of the building respectively.
Wind energy researchers at NREL's Flatirons Campus develop modeling and simulation capabilities that help inform wind industry research and design to drive down the cost of wind energy. Created using Nalu-Wind simulation code, this visualization of two NREL 5-megawatt wind turbines demonstrates a turbine wake interaction flow field, which can improve understanding of wind plant performance.

The first open-source software tool of its kind, OpenOA helps wind industry professionals make more accurate predictions and more informed decisions in their work, thereby reducing investment risk.
The REopt web tool allows users to evaluate the economic viability of distributed wind energy and other renewable energy sources, identify system sizes and dispatch strategies to minimize energy costs, and estimate how long a system can sustain critical load during a grid outage.
The Renewable Energy Potential (reV) model model is a first-of-its-kind detailed spatiotemporal modeling assessment tool that empowers users to calculate renewable energy capacity, generation, and cost based on geospatial intersection with grid infrastructure and land-use characteristics. Available as open source since February 2020, the reV model currently supports wind turbine technologies.
The Stochastic Soaring Raptor Simulator (SSRS) is designed to predict movements of soaring raptors (such as golden eagles) with the goal of determining potential negative interactions between soaring raptors and wind turbines. SSRS uses a stochastic agent-based model for simulating a large number of wind- riding eagle paths at turbine-scale resolution using the atmospheric conditions at a specific time and the ground features (altitude, slope, aspect) at a particular site. SSRS can be applied to any rectangular region within the United States without the need for any eagle-centric or atmosphere-related data collection efforts, using only publicly available data sources. SSRS outputs a presence density map, which could be used to design tailored collision-mitigation measures or for future plant siting.
