Every year, hurricanes hit different regions of the world, causing significant economic and human losses. Climate change also has a great influence on these natural phenomena, which are becoming more frequent and intense. The large wind gusts that accompany this natural phenomenon are damaging to all types of areas, especially low-rise structures such as residential, commercial and industrial buildings. As a response, researchers and government agencies around the world have taken the lead in developing strategies to understand and improve the stability of structures in the presence of extreme winds. This article reviews the most recent work on various strategies for mitigating wind loads produced by hurricanes. Mitigation strategies in the coastal zone of the Mexican Republic are discussed in this study as well as the different methodologies used to better understand the effects caused by extreme winds (wind tunnel, full-scale experiments and computational fluid dynamics).< Réduire
