Seismic response of floating wind turbines due to seaquakes

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 145-162, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Vertical seismic waves, which are primarily due to pressure waves in the ground, can propagate with the same intensity in the seawater and impact floating bodies such as floating wind turbines (FWTs). Part of this wave can further propagate in the tower and generate large vertical accelerations in the nacelle. This paper presents a methodology

Fault‐tolerant individual pitch control of floating offshore wind turbines via subspace predictive repetitive control

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 1045-1065, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Individual pitch control (IPC) is an effective and widely used strategy to mitigate blade loads in wind turbines. However, conventional IPC fails to cope with blade and actuator faults, and this situation may lead to an emergency shutdown and increased maintenance costs.

Shape Morphing Programmable Systems for Enhanced Control in Low‐Velocity Flow Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2025.
A soft, Lorentz‐force‐driven programmable surface enables rapid, reversible shape morphing for active flow control. Integrating experimental, numerical, and modeling approaches, the system demonstrates effective modulation of near‐wall flow and momentum at low velocities, offering pathways for bio‐inspired aerodynamics and natural locomotion emulation.

Computational modeling of Prandtl‐nanofluid flow using exponentially vertical surface in terms of chemical reaction

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 6, Issue 4, April 2024.
The novelty of this study is due to the analysis of Prandtl nanofluid model with Soret mechanism and chemically responding fluids. This suggested model is beneficial since it can significantly advance the domains of thermal and industrial engineering and this model is solved by EFDM. An important findings of the current investigations can be treated as,

The effect of flow oscillations on cavity drag [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
An experimental investigation of flow over an axisymmetric cavity shows that self-sustained, periodic oscillations of the cavity shear layer are associated with low cavity drag.
