Some Statistical Characteristic of Malaysian Wind Direction Recorded at Maximum Wind Speed: 1999-2008

The statistical characteristics of wind direction that was recorded at maximum wind speed in Peninsular Malaysia for two monsoons from 1999 to 2008 for seven stations were analyzed in this study. Modeled by von Mises distribution, the change in parameters values namely mean direction and concentrati...
