Influence of soil plasticity models on offshore wind turbine response
Wind EnergyWhile recent numerical modelling advances have enabled robust simulation of foundation hysteresis behaviour, uptake of these models has been limited in the offshore wind industry. This is partially due to modelling complexity and the unknown influence of

Brief communication: Real-time estimation of the optimal tip-speed ratio for controlling wind turbines with degraded blades [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceRotor performance is adversely affected by the wear and tear of blade surfaces caused, for example, by rain, snow, icing, dirt, bugs and aging. Blade surface degradation changes the aerodynamic properties of the rotor, which in turn changes the optimal ...
