The story of Alan Davenport (1932-2009), the father of modern wind engineering, who investigated how wind navigates the obstacle course of the earth's natural and built environments, and how, when not properly heeded, wind causes buildings and bridges to teeter unduly, sway with abandon, and even collapse.
