Idealized Offshore Low‐Level Jets for Turbine Structural Impact Considerations
Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Low‐level jets (LLJs) describe conditions in which the wind speed reaches a local maximum with respect to altitude near the surface; they have been observed intermittently in the US mid‐Atlantic offshore environment. LLJs pose unique operating conditions for future wind turbines operating in the region, such as negative shear and locally ...

Non‐Linear Reduced Order Modelling of Transonic Potential Flows for Fast Aerodynamic Analysis
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 2, 30 January 2026.ABSTRACT This work presents a physics‐based reduced order modelling (ROM) framework for the efficient simulation of steady transonic potential flows around aerodynamic configurations. The approach leverages proper orthogonal decomposition and a least‐squares Petrov‐Galerkin (LSPG) projection to construct intrusive ROMs for the full potential equation ...

Hierarchical Response Control Method for Voltage Support in DFIGs Considering Fatigue Loads
IET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.This paper proposes a hierarchical response control (HRC) method to address the increased fatigue load on wind turbines during reactive power support for grid voltage stability. By establishing a fatigue sensitivity model and dynamically adjusting control parameters, the method optimally allocates reactive power while avoiding critical shaft ...

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Double‐layer truss bridges are widely used in long‐span crossings due to their high load‐carrying capacity and structural efficiency. However, their complex truss configurations significantly alter the wind field around the deck, posing potential challenges to driving safety and comfort.
