🌾 Wheat Field in Wind — 2D Side-View Stalk Dynamics, Gust Waves and Wind-Load Response

2D companion of the wheat field in wind: a row of 64 coupled stalks, each a damped bending spring with aerodynamic drag, shows how gusts travel across the field and how steady lean grows with the square of wind speed.
