Application of a system modification technique to dynamic tuning of a spinning rotor blade [PDF]

open access: yes
An important consideration in the development of modern helicopters is the vibratory response of the main rotor blade. One way to minimize vibration levels is to ensure that natural frequencies of the spinning main rotor blade are well removed from ...

Modeling, Validation, and Control of the IEA‐15 MW Reference Wind Turbine and VolturnUS‐S Platform

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the acausal modeling, validation, and control of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs). The model simulates the IEA‐15 MW reference turbine and the semi‐submersible VolturnUS‐S platform utilizing a Control‐oriented, Reconfigurable, and Acausal Floating Turbine Simulator (CRAFTS), which integrates the key coupled aero ...

Improvements to tilt rotor performance through passive blade twist control [PDF]

open access: yes
A passive blade twist control is presented in which the twist distribution of a tilt rotor blade is elastically changed as a function of rotor speed. The elastic twist deformation is used to achieve two different blade twist distributions corresponding ...

An Engineering Model for Static Yawed Wind Turbines Based on Actuator Line Simulations and Symbolic Regression

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Yaw engineering models are commonly used as add‐ons to the industrial blade element momentum (BEM) framework to improve load and power predictions by accounting for the skewed wake effect. However, existing yaw engineering models show noticeable limitations in accurately predicting the induced velocity distribution across the blade span.

Wind Turbine Model Validation Is Improved by High‐Resolution, Measurement‐Derived Inflows

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT There is an increased need for accurate validation of turbine models used by original equipment manufacturers to fine‐tune prototypes and predict power performance and maintenance needs while avoiding costly warranty payouts. Perhaps the most substantial source of uncertainty in typical wind turbine model validation procedures is the use of ...

The Trajectory and Structural Integrity of Aerially Deployed Manufactured Baits for Canid Control

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In Australia, poison baits are aerially deployed in remote and inaccessible areas to mitigate invasive animal impacts. Program efficacy and compliance with mandated distance restrictions require accurate bait distribution but deployment accuracy and precision have not been evaluated for Doggone manufactured baits.
