One‐Dimensional Finite Elements With Arbitrary Cross‐Sectional Displacement Fields

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces an unprecedented unified approach for developing structural theories with an arbitrary kinematic variable over the beam cross‐section. Each of the three displacement variables can be analyzed using an independent expansion function. Both the order of the expansion and the number of terms in each field can be any. That is,

Full-Field Displacement Measurements of Helicopter Rotor Blades Using Stereophotogrammetry

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2021
This study presents a stereophotogrammetry approach to achieve full-field displacement measurements of helicopter rotor blades. The method is demonstrated in the wind tunnel test of a 2 m diameter rotor, conducted at the 5.5 m×4 m Aeroacoustic Wind ...

Effect of Airfoil's Attack Angle and Airfoil‐Cylinder Configuration on Turbulence Parameters and Airfoil's Aerodynamic Efficiency

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 11, Page 5432-5450, November 2025.
The increasing demand for energy in daily life and the finite nature of fossil fuel reserves have driven researchers worldwide to explore renewable energy sources such as wind energy. To optimize the performance and minimize energy losses in vertical wind turbines, parameters such as the airfoil's angle of attack, as well as the horizontal and vertical

Dynamic Stall Characteristics of Thick Wind Turbine Airfoils

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper studies the dynamic stall characteristics of thick flatback and nonflatback wind turbine airfoils. Two airfoils with a maximum thickness of 35%$$ 35\% $$ were studied, with trailing edge thicknesses of 2%$$ 2\% $$ and 10%$$ 10\% $$, respectively.

Main rotor-body action for virtual blades model

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
This research aims to investigate a virtual blade model and assess rotor influence on helicopter fuselage aerodynamics. The rotor disk is discretized in the azimuthal direction, and a time-varied pressure jump is applied in regions occupied by the blades.

Rotorcraft thickness noise control

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2021
The paper describes an innovative idea of Thickness Noise Control (TNC) based on adoption of a flow control strategy (i.e. surface ventilation) for acoustic attenuation of helicopter rotor periodic noise.

The Effect of Rotor Size on the Teeter Behavior of Two‐Bladed Wind Turbines

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The rotor of a two‐bladed turbine allows the implementation of an additional degree of freedom around the rotating hub y‐axis. This idea is over 60 years old, and various research and commercial turbines have had a teeter hinge. Fatigue and extreme loads can be reduced significantly with a teeter hinge. Teetered turbines have been mainly below

Mitigation of infusion and cure‐induced defects for thick thermosetting composites: Current challenges and future trends

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 46, Issue S1, Page S9-S25, 10 September 2025.
Typical manufacturing defects and mitigation strategies in thick thermosetting composites. Abstract The composite part industry is currently dominated by thin‐section geometries. However, thick composites gain interest in many applications where monolithic parts are required, such as foils, wind mill root blades, and so forth.
