Hi,


I run the example windAroundBuildings. I now have the U (x, y, z) and p.


My question is simple : how can I have the pressure on the wall ? I try to use the x projection of the pressure. But on the wall, the pressure is vertical so I don't have any horizontal effort.


Can you explain me how can I compute the pressure on the wall ?


I'm civil engineering, not a physician so maybe it's a formula I don't know.


Thanks for any advice,


Vincent
