Variable effects of blade black‐and‐white designs on detection of turbine rotation by birds
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.Although no clear consensus emerged, striped patterns appeared to be the most promising for enhancing blade motion detection by several bird species. Field experiments are now required to validate these results in situ. Abstract Wind turbines can negatively impact biodiversity, particularly through bird collisions with blades.

Vibration analysis of compressor blade tip-rubbing [PDF]
, 2011 There has been a significant increase in air traffic volume, particularly over the past twenty years. In order to cope with this increase in demand, it has been necessary to increase the efficiency of aircraft engines.

Contact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 65-73, July 2026.Epoxy resin sensitisation remains a relevant occupational risk in wind turbine blade manufacturing, confined to high‐exposure tasks and often presenting as hand dermatitis. Accurate diagnosis requires epoxy‐specific patch testing, and prevention must go beyond personal protective equipment.

Development of Vertical Wind Turbine Blades Using 4D Printing of Composites
Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 10966-10975, 20 June 2026.Vertical axis wind turbine: White blade: Commercial. Black blade: Composite. ABSTRACT This paper presents the procedure to make vertical wind turbine blades using the technique of 4D printing of composites (4DPC). The blades are made using carbon/epoxy composite materials with a fiber volume fraction of about 60%.

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 12, 17 June 2026.This study investigates the effects of milling parameters, including rotational speed, milling duration, and ball‐to‐powder ratio, on TiAl particle size and morphology in an XHV‐equivalent atmosphere. The creation of oxide‐free surfaces enhances the mechanical properties of green bodies.

Novel methods for fatigue data editing for horizontal axis wind turbine blades
Wind turbine blades are the most critical components of wind turbines. Full-scale blade fatigue testing is required to verify that the blades possess the strength and service life specified in the design.
