Stability of Floating Wind Turbine Wakes
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021 Abstract Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are the next frontier in offshore wind energy, allowing exploration of deep-water regions previously unavailable to fixed-foundation turbines. Since offshore turbines operate in lower turbulence levels, the intrinsic hydrodynamic unstable modes of the tip vortices can have even more ...

Analysis of Wind Power Fluctuation in Wind Turbine Wakes Using Scale-Adaptive Large Eddy Simulation
WindIn large wind farms, the interaction of atmospheric turbulence and wind turbine wakes leads to complex vortex dynamics and energy dissipation, resulting in reduced wind velocity and subsequent loss of wind power.

Analytical model for the power–yaw sensitivity of wind turbines operating in full wake [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2020 Wind turbines are designed to align themselves with the incoming wind direction. However, turbines often experience unintentional yaw misalignment, which can significantly reduce the power production.

Asset Redeployability and Biodiversity Risk
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine how asset redeployability influences a firm's exposure to biodiversity risk. Our empirical analysis provides robust evidence that firms possessing greater levels of redeployable assets exhibit significantly lower biodiversity risk.
