Abstract
The rise in urbanization has led to an increase in high-density communities. Our study drew inspiration from the fishbone structure and applied a bionic architectural layout to optimize the wind environment within the pedestrian areas of these communities. Additionally, our study delved into the intrinsic principles and simulation-based optimization methods for the wind environment in the pedestrian areas of the fishbone bionic architectural complex. Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation technology, our study simulated the building models both before and after the community renovation. Furthermore, our study simulated nine architectural complex models proposed by our study, considering the architectural layout and facade height within the community. By verifying and comparing the simulation results, our study observed that the fishbone bionic architectural form significantly improved the wind environment within the community’s pedestrian areas. Regarding the facade height, our study discovered that taller architectural units should be positioned away from the prevailing wind direction to enhance the airflow within the architectural complex. This research carries substantial implications for the renovation and planning of residential communities, particularly in large urban settings with a substantial population.
