Texas Tech University. Wind Science and Engineering Research Center
The Wind Science and Engineering (WISE) Research Center at Texas Tech University was established in 1970, following a tornado in Lubbock that caused 26 fatalities and more than $100 million in damage. The WISE Center is focused on research, education and information outreach. The comprehensive and interdisciplinary research program aspires to exploit the useful qualities of wind and to mitigate its detrimental effects. The Center develops information on windstorm disaster mitigation and other wind-related subjects that can be made available to professionals and the public.
