The Wind of Change: Mapping Wind Energy Growth and Multi‐Species Vulnerability in Sardinia, Mediterranean

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 285-297, June 2026.
The rapid expansion of wind energy across the Mediterranean region calls for more advanced tools to assess and mitigate its impacts on biodiversity. In this study, we present an innovative approach combining 13‐year satellite imagery analysis and ecological modelling, to assess the spatiotemporal overlap between wind energy development and habitat ...

Computational flow field analysis of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

open access: yes
The present work has used Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to obtain the flow field characteristics of a novel Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT). The turbine used in this study features a multi blade design where both a stator and rotor blade array is ...

Performance evaluation of three cross flow vertical axis wind turbine configurations.

open access: yes, 2009
The performance output of three Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) configurations has been evaluated using a two-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) model. Data has been obtained using a quasi-steady Multi Reference Frame (MRF) approach in which

Vulnerability of Bats in Australia to Wind Turbine Mortality: A Trait‐Based Assessment

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wind turbine collisions are a leading cause of bat mortality globally, yet the vulnerability of Australian bat taxa remains poorly understood. Trait‐based assessments offer a valuable method for evaluating mortality risk in the absence of data on species‐ and region‐specific turbine interactions.

Prediction of unsteady blade loads of a wind turbine using RANS and vorticity transport methodologies

open access: yes, 2010
Numerical simulations of the NREL phase VI wind turbine operating in yawed conditions have been performed using two computational methods; one based on the solution of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS) using unstructured overset meshes

Condition monitoring benefit for offshore wind turbines

open access: yes, 2012
As more offshore wind parks are commissioned, the focus will inevitably shift from a planning, construction and warranty focus to an operation, maintenance and investment payback focus.
