The research that defines our work
Nassu: A high performance LES solver for computational wind engineering
Oliveira Jr., W., et al.
Our peer-reviewed solver paper. Introduces Nassu - the GPU-accelerated LES/LBM engine behind AeroSim - and its validation for computational wind engineering. The lead reference for how and why our results can be trusted.

Instantaneous velocity and streamlines for the PIV-validated case (k/h = 0.045). Detail of Fig. 7 from Almeida et al., JWEIA 278 (2026) 106596, CC BY 4.0.
Journal articleExperimental and numerical investigation of upstream terrain roughness effects on atmospheric boundary layer flow around a cubical building
Almeida, M., Taouil, N., Bakar, N., Jadidi, M., Azarpeyvand, M.
Independent, peer-reviewed validation by a University of Bristol group, which credits AeroSim for software access. LES via the lattice Boltzmann method, with immersed-boundary roughness elements and a synthetic-eddy inlet, is measured against PIV data from Bristol's boundary layer wind tunnel: mean streamwise velocity reaches FAC2 and LCC above 0.90, and turbulence intensity reaches FAC2 = 0.85, LCC = 0.91 and NMSE = 0.32. Each 98.7-million-cell case ran in roughly 8 hours on a single NVIDIA RTX A5500.

Conference paperA viable framework for wind load assessments with Large Eddy Simulations
Oliveira Jr., W., et al.
Presented at the field's flagship conference (ICWE). Lays out a practical LES-based framework for wind load assessment - the foundation our consulting methodology is built on.
