Answer:
Project Navigator - Results provides a special option to evaluate the results of the RWIND Simulation loads: Activate the results of "Distribution of load" and then select the "Wind load using RWIND Simulation" option.

Structures react differently to wind action depending on stiffness, mass, and damping. A basic distinction is made between buildings that are prone to vibration and those that are not.
Computer technology has a firm grip on digital structural analysis and design. With each new development, the planners involved are able to increase the limits of what is feasible.
Structures are naturally three-dimensional. However, because it was impossible to perform calculations on three-dimensional models easily in the past, the structures were simplified and broken down into planar subsystems. With the increasing performance of computers and related software, it is often possible to do without these simplifications. Digital trends such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) and new options for creating realistic visualized models reinforce this trend. But do 3D models really offer an advantage, or are we just following a trend? The following text presents some arguments for working in 3D models.
The building and construction industry is increasingly digitized. Structural engineers, a smaller group in the construction industry, are not always considered to be engineers who follow the latest trends immediately. There is often good reason for this. Many consider this to be the reason that topics such as utilizing the BIM method are not yet the standard in structural engineering. However, the past few years have shown that a process of rethinking has begun, and new digital trends are being picked up and applied.
The results of solid stresses can be displayed as colored 3D points in the finite elements.
In RWIND Simulation, it is possible to divide the model in different zones. This allows for different surface roughness to be assigned to the zones. In addition, local results can be better evaluated.

The number of degrees of freedom in a node is no longer a global calculation parameter in RFEM (6 degrees of freedom for each mesh node in 3D models, 7 degrees of freedom for the warping torsion analysis). Thus, each node is generally considered with a different number of degrees of freedom, which leads to a variable number of equations in the calculation.
This modification speeds up the calculation, especially for models where a significant reduction of the system could be achieved (for example, trusses and membrane structures).

The RWIND Simulation program for generating wind loads based on CFD can be utilized in different languages; for example, in:
- German
- English
- Czech
- Spanish
- French
- Italian
- Polish
- Portuguese
- Russian
When exporting my model from RFEM to RWIND, I get the message "Warning No. 7731 | Reading of logger file failed." What can I do to start the simulation in RWIND?
Is there any way to get a free student version of Dlubal Software (such as RFEM, RSTAB, RWIND Simulation) if I am not attending a university or college, but a high school, for example?
Is it possible to keep the results from RWIND Simulation when deleting the FE mesh if I only adjust materials or support conditions?
I have defined a wind profile for RWIND Simulation up to a height of 100 m. Is the wind profile dependent on the size of the wind tunnel?
How can I import an IFC model into the RWIND Simulation environment?
Why is the surface pressure distribution in RFEM different from the corresponding surface pressure distribution in RWIND Simulation?
