Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

Large Tip Clearance Flows in High Pressure Stages of Axial Compressors [PDF]
, 2009 This thesis investigates over tip leakage where the tip clearance is large. In the high pressure stages of axial compressors the tip clearance can be typically 6% of span and the total blockage due to tip clearance can consume in excess of forty percent ...
