Background and MotivationDownbursts are localized, intense downdrafts produced by convective storms that generate strong, transient, and highly non-uniform wind fields near the ground. Unlike synoptic winds, downbursts exhibit rapid temporal variation and complex spatial characteristics, posing a significant challenge to conventional wind engineering assumptions. Slender structures such as transmission towers, chimneys, masts, long-span bridges, and
