Abstract
An innovative wind chamber study on wind loads induced by tornado-like vortices (TLVs) on a realistic, geometrically complex built community is performed at the WindEEE Dome tornado simulator at Western University, Canada. The pressure distribution induced by the TLVs on the model buildings are quantified and compared to ASCE 7-22 building provisions, revealing that the building code may sometimes be insufficient for side loads, uplift, and appurtenance loads. For each geometric configuration of the community, stationary TLVs with swirl ratio values of S = 0.59, 0.69 and 1.03 are simulated. Flow aerodynamics are assessed by analyzing time-averaged and instantaneous pressure coefficients. The spatial location of pressure minima conform to pressure distribution observed from flow separation, with the roof experiencing the highest pressure deficits. Instantaneous pressures were subjected to extreme value analyses, which identified short return period pressure coefficients for strong pressure deficits.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
