Multi‐Strategy Synergy‐Based Differential Evolution for Large Wind Farm Layout Optimization

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploring clean energy alternatives to fossil fuels has become a major research focus worldwide. Wind energy is regarded as one of the most promising renewable energy sources due to its clean and sustainable nature. However, wake interactions among turbines significantly reduce power conversion efficiency, making wind farm layout optimization (

Green Developmentalism? The Political Economy of Hydropower in India in the 21st Century

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article critically examines the political economy of hydropower in India since its global reconfiguration as ‘green energy’ in the early 2000s. While an opportune convergence of interests among key global, national and subnational stakeholders contributed to the greening of hydropower in India, this reframing did not produce the expected ...

Monopile-induced turbulence and sediment redistribution form visible wakes in offshore wind farms

Frontiers in Earth Science
Offshore wind farms are becoming an increasingly common feature in the marine environment as a renewable energy source. There is a growing body of evidence on the effects of wind farms on the seabed and its organisms.

Spatial development of planar and axisymmetric wakes of porous objects under a pressure gradient: a wind tunnel study [PDF]

Wind Energy Science
We report an experimental study on the effect of a constant adverse pressure gradient on the spatial evolution of turbulent wakes generated by different objects.

Quantifying Fiber Bridging in Mode I Fatigue Delamination of CFRP/GFRP Hybrid Laminates Using a Superposed Traction–Separation Model

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hybrid CFRP/GFRP laminates offer an attractive balance between mechanical performance, damage tolerance, and cost efficiency. However, fiber bridging during mode I delamination increases crack‐growth resistance while masking the intrinsic fatigue behavior of the material. This study applies a traction–separation‐based superposition approach to

Mergers and Acquisitions as Navigators of Climate Policy Shocks: Evidence from the NOx Budget Trading Program

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how mergers and acquisitions (M&As) enable firms to adapt to climate policy shocks. Exploiting the adoption of the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Budget Trading Program (NBP) across US states as an exogenous shock, we find that firms with NOx‐emitting plants subject to the NBP are more likely to engage in M&As, particularly through vertical ...

Estimating Wind‐Power Capacity Time Series From Production Data Using a Power Curve Model and Quadratic Optimization

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate, time‐resolved installed capacity data are crucial for forecasting and analysing wind‐power production. The time series of installed capacity is often only approximately known in regions with rapid wind power development. Public wind power databases may only be updated yearly and installation dates may not be differentiated within ...

Sparsity Applications for Gradient‐Based Optimization of Wind Farms

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Optimizing wind farms is essential for designing efficient energy systems, especially as farms grow larger and span multiple sites. However, this optimization becomes increasingly challenging due to the rising computational cost associated with more turbines.

Assessing the Underwater Impact of Aerodynamic Noise From Offshore Wind Turbines

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for offshore wind energy has led to a significant increase in wind turbine size and to the development of large‐scale wind farms, often comprising 100–150 turbines. However, the environmental impact of underwater noise emissions remains largely unaddressed.

Optimizing Wind Power Plant Locations: A GIS‐Based Approach With Interval Type‐2 Fuzzy Risk Deviation Performance Index

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops an integrated GIS and multicriteria decision making (MCDM) approach supported by the Interval Type‐2 Fuzzy Risk Deviation Performance Index (IT2F‐RDPI) method to assess the wind energy potential in Diyarbakır Province. Fifteen criteria, including wind speed, slope, land use, elevation, soil structure, and proximity to ...
