Effects of blade section on performance of butterfly wind turbines as double-blade VAWTs
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2015 A butterfly wind turbine (BWT) is a kind of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with closed-loop blades. These blades form a double-blade structure, which is expected to improve self-starting properties and reduce energy costs because of their simple ...

The Past, Present and Future of Structural Health Monitoring: An Overview of Three Ages
Strain, Volume 61, Issue 1, February 2025.ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of the discipline of structural health monitoring (SHM), organised in terms of three proposed ages. The first age is delineated by the prehistory of SHM and the period where nondestructing testing methods evolved into an organised set of principles built upon physics‐based models; this age ended when the model ...
