Design and construction of a simple blade pitch measurement system for small wind turbines
, 2009 For small wind turbines to be reliable they must have in place good mechanisms to protect themselves against very high winds or sudden removal of load. One common protection method in small wind turbines is that of blade feathering.

Predicting the wake structure of the HART II rotor using the vorticity transport model [PDF]
, 2008 Brown’s Vorticity Transport Model has been used to predict the wake structure and resultant blade loading of the rotor that was studied during the HART II experimental programme. The descending flight condition of the experiment yields significant high-

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

An investigation of secondary flow in a turbine blade with end wall profiling [PDF]
, 1999 Secondary flows have been long recognised as a significant form of loss mechanism in turbomachinery. They have a major influence over the performance of the blade rows since they cause unsteadiness in the mainstream flow.
