Aerodynamic Behavior of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine [PDF]

open access: yesAIAA Journal, 2019
The flowfield around the rotor blades of a wind turbine may be quite complex due to the occurrence of several aerodynamic phenomena. It is all the more true for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT), for which the six rigid-body motions of the floating platform can induce blade/wake interactions.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Effect of the number of blades and solidity on the performance of a vertical axis wind turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two, three and four bladed phgr-shape Vertical Axis Wind Turbines are simulated using a free-wake vortex model. Two versions of the three and four bladed turbines are considered, one having the same chord length as the two-bladed turbine and the other ...

Superelastic High‐Entropy Oxide Ceramic Aerogels for Thermal Superinsulation and Sealing at Extreme Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A high‐entropy oxide ceramic of (Gd1/2Lu1/2)2(Ti1/3Zr1/3Hf1/3)2O7 is prepared through a molecular synthesis route of pyrolytic solid‐solution reactions. The architectured nanofiber aerogel manifests unprecedented thermomechanical properties, including superelastic compressibility of 98% from −196 to 1500 °C, and thermal superinsulation capacity (24.14 ...

Transforming Grain‐Boundary Brittle Precipitates to Ductility Pathways in Complex Concentrated Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By engineering graded BCC/L12 interfaces, brittle precipitates in a complex concentrated alloy enable sequential deformation, realizing gigapascal strength with >20% elongation to solve the strength‐ductility trade‐off. ABSTRACT Conventional wisdom holds that hard grain‐boundary (GB) precipitates embrittle structural alloys by acting as crack ...

Outstanding 1200 °C Oxidation Resistance in a Novel Multi‐Principal Element Alloy via Lattice Distortion‐Induced Diffusion Suppression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The unique lamellar structure of the eutectic alloy promotes selective oxidation of Al initially, while lattice distortion‐induced diffusion suppression slows oxide growth during steady state. Combining these strategies, a Multi‐Principal Element Alloy with excellent oxidation resistance at 1200℃ was designed.
