Dynamic Stall Characteristics of Thick Wind Turbine Airfoils

open access: yesWind Energy
This paper studies the dynamic stall characteristics of thick flatback and nonflatback wind turbine airfoils. Two airfoils with a maximum thickness of 35% were studied, with trailing edge thicknesses of 2% and 10%, respectively.

Near Stall Unsteady Flow Responses to Morphing Flap Deflections

open access: yesFluids, 2021
The unsteady flow characteristics and responses of an NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a bio-inspired morphing trailing edge flap (TEF) at near-stall angles of attack (AoA) undergoing downward deflections are investigated at a Reynolds number of 0.62 × 106 ...

Fully 3D‐Printed Wave‐Wound Electromagnetic Motors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents the first fully 3D‐printed wave‐wound electromagnetic motors, which are created using conductive nanoparticle inks, carbon‐filled nylon polymers, and surface mount components. These motors can achieve a stall torque of 7.62N·mmA−1$7.62 \nobreakspace N{\cdot }mm A^{-1}$ and efficiency of 28.2 %, which approaches the performance of ...

Effect of blade geometry on the aerodynamic loads produced by vertical-axis wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Accurate aerodynamic modelling of vertical-axis wind turbines poses a significant challenge. The rotation of the turbine induces large variations in the angle of attack of its blades that can manifest as dynamic stall.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Characterization of Aeroelastic Behavior in a High Aspect Ratio Wing Using Computational and Wind Tunnel Experiments

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
The objective of this article is to characterize an aeroelastic system in terms of its dynamical behavior, which could be either chaotic or periodic before, during, and after achieving the flutter velocity.

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.
