Comparisons of the accuracy of different wake models in wind farm layout optimization

open access: yesEnergy Exploration & Exploitation, 2020
Accurate wake model in wind farm layout optimization can help extracting maximum power generation, minimizing cost of energy and prolonging wind turbines’ lifetime as well.

On the wake of a Darrieus turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The theory and experimental measurements on the aerodynamic decay of a wake from high performance vertical axis wind turbine are discussed. In the initial experimental study, the wake downstream of a model Darrieus rotor, 28 cm diameter and a height of ...

Primordial Non-Gaussianity: Baryon Bias and Gravitational Collapse of Cosmic String Wakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
I compute the 3-D non-linear evolution of gas and dark matter fluids in the neighbourhood of cosmic string wakes which are formed at high redshift ($z\simeq 2240$) for a ``realistic'' scenario of wake formation.

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

A New Analytical Wake Model for Yawed Wind Turbines

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
A new analytical wake model for wind turbines, considering ambient turbulence intensity, thrust coefficient and yaw angle effects, is proposed from numerical and analytical studies.

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high‐magnitude stress.

The velocity field of a system of unsteady cycloidal vorticies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
An essential difference between two-dimensional and three-dimensional models of cycloidal rotors, the presence of unsteady trailing cycloidal vorticies in the wake, was studied.

Modelling and assessing the near-wake representation and turbulence behaviour of control-oriented wake models

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract Due to the interaction between the wake of an upstream turbine on a downstream turbine, power losses and increased fatigue loads occur. By yawing the upstream turbine with regard to the wind direction, one can potentially reduce the power losses of the downstream turbine and reduce the fatigue loads.

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

A Simplified Free Vortex Wake Model of Wind Turbines for Axial Steady Conditions

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
A simplified free vortex wake (FVW) model called the vortex sheet and ring wake (VSRW) model was developed to rapidly calculate the aerodynamic performance of wind turbines under axial steady conditions.
