Innovative Fluid Mechanics Education Through Augmented Reality and Interactive Learning

PAMM, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Traditional pedagogical setups in laboratories are often outdated and do not provide the necessary support for effective learning. Teaching fluid mechanics poses additional significant challenges, particularly due to the need to visualize invisible properties, like velocity vector fields (velocity) or scalar pressure fields in time‐dependent ...

Segmented Gurney Flaps for Improved Wind Turbine Wake Recovery

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT When wind passes through the rotor of a wind turbine, the velocity is decreased while turbulence is increased. The region of decreased wind speed behind the rotor is known as the wind turbine wake and is bounded by a complex structure of helical vortices. This structure occurs to be more stable in low ambient turbulence and low tip speed ratio

Failure Criterion‐Based Bead Optimization of a Wind Turbine Blade Root Section

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a bead‐based optimization framework for fiber composite wind turbine blades, employing the Tsai–Wu failure criterion as the structural performance measure. The objective is to design an optimal transition geometry between an existing blade and a root section with 20% smaller diameter, while preserving the original material ...

Shrouded Wind and Water Turbine Analytical Model Extensions for Tip Gaps, Center Bodies, and Flow Blockage

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper provides improvements to a previously presented simple, accurate, lower order analytical model for predicting the performance of horizontal‐axis shrouded turbines for a wide range of shroud airfoil shapes varying in length, camber, and thickness. The new, extended model incorporates explicit quantitative predictions of those effects
