Abstract
With the actual record of typhoon being inadequate, how to assess the long-term level typhoon wind risks in regions dominated by typhoon such as Hong Kong more accurately is still arguable. In this paper, an alternative method is proposed with two aspects of improvements in the typhoon hazard analysis for Hong Kong. One is The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (CE) wind field model which is well demonstrated through comparison with observed typhoon wind speed records. Additionally, the new formula for Holland B parameter is introduced. There is reasonable agreement between the wind speed with various return periods in [Code (2004)] and those predicted by this paper, indicating that the method proposed tin this paper is suitable for the typhoon wind hazard and the risk analysis for Hong Kong of China in the future.
