Reliability of floating foundation concepts for vertical axis wind turbines [PDF]
Offshore wind turbines are developing at a rapid pace. By far the most common turbine configuration is the HAWT (Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine) and development of these machines is largely centered about drive train and blade issues with some work ...

Dry sand as a specialized layer to improve the acoustic insulation between rooms one above another
This work presents and analyses the experimental field results of the sound insulation from airborne and impact noise of the horizontal separating elements commonly used in the past, in which a uniform layer of sand was placed on top of the floor ...
