A Sequential Quadratic Numerical Optimization Technique to Compute Critical Flutter Speeds
ABSTRACT A stable sequential quadratic numerical optimization technique is proposed to compute critical flutter speeds without resorting to complex algebra. The solution of the traditional eigenproblem stated in the frequency domain, and whose complex conjugate eigenvalues provide insights on the stability of the dynamic aeroelastic response, is ...

Finite Element Approximation for a Reformulation of a 3D Fluid–2D Plate Interaction System
ABSTRACT We study a finite element approximation of a coupled fluid‐structure interaction consisting of a three‐dimensional incompressible viscous fluid governed by the unsteady Stokes equations and a two‐dimensional elastic plate. To avoid the use of H2−$$ {H}^2- $$conforming or nonconforming ℙ2$$ {\mathbb{P}}_2 $$‐Morley plate elements, the fourth ...

Ocean Wave Modulation of Offshore Wind Turbine Loads and Wake
ABSTRACT This study examines how wave‐induced modulation affects the operational performance and structural dynamics of fixed‐bottom offshore wind turbines operating under a neutral atmospheric boundary layer profile. To capture these effects accurately while maintaining computational efficiency, unsteady RANS modelling techniques are employed.

Encoding Cumulation to Learn Perturbative Nonlinear Oscillatory Dynamics
Weak nonlinearities critically shape the long term behavior of oscillatory systems but are difficult to identify from data. A data‐driven framework is introduced to infer governing equations of weakly nonlinear oscillators from sparse and noisy observations.
