Fish schooling as a basis for vertical axis wind turbine farm design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Most wind farms consist of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) due to the high power coefficient (mechanical power output divided by the power of the free-stream air through the turbine cross-sectional area) of an isolated turbine.

Techno-economic comparison of operational aspects for direct drive and gearbox-driven wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The majority of wind turbines currently in operation have the conventional Danish concept design-that is, the three-bladed rotor of such turbines is indirectly coupled with an electrical generator via a gearbox.
