Aeroelastic load validation in wake conditions using nacelle-mounted lidar measurements [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science, 2020
We propose a method for carrying out wind turbine load validation in wake conditions using measurements from forward-looking nacelle lidars. Two lidars, a pulsed- and a continuous-wave system, were installed on the nacelle of a 2.3 MW wind turbine

Angled Nozzle Aerosol Jet Printing to Streamline Conformal Patterning of Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A modular, angled aerosol jet printhead is demonstrated to streamline patterning on nonplanar surfaces, including 90° step edges and confined internal geometries. A detailed analysis of gravitational settling for a sheathed aerosol flow and deconvolution of oblique deposition and gravitational effects supports the versatility of this approach for ...

Analysis of wind events in a coastal area: a tool for assessing turbulence variability for studies on plankton

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2006
Turbulence at different scales, from generation to dissipation, influences planktonic communities. Many experimental studies have recently been done to determine the effects of small-scale turbulence on plankton, but it is difficult to state the ...

LES Investigation of Terrain-Induced Turbulence in Complex Terrain and Economic Effects of Wind Turbine Control

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
In the present study, numerical wind simulation was conducted by reproducing the realistic topography near wind turbine sites with high spatial resolutions and using the Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) technique. The topography near wind turbine sites serves

Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard): An Aerial Robotic Swarm for Autonomous Detection and Entrapment of Rogue Multirotors

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment

Wind Turbulence Intensity at La Ventosa, Mexico: A Comparative Study with the IEC61400 Standards

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
Wind speed turbulence intensity is a crucial parameter in designing the structure of wind turbines. The IEC61400 considers the Normal Turbulence Model (NTM) as a reference for fatigue load calculations for small and large wind turbines.

Solar-Wind Structures That Are Not Destroyed by the Action of Solar-Wind Turbulence

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
If MHD turbulence is a dominant process acting in the solar wind between the Sun and 1 AU, then the destruction and regeneration of structure in the solar-wind plasma is expected.

A Versatile‐Designable Framework for Active and Programmable Shape‐Morphing Soft Matter Systems: From Inverse Design to Closed‐Loop Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A versatile framework integrates addressable electrothermal actuation and strain‐constraint mechanisms to construct programmable shape‐morphing soft matter systems. By combining an analytical inverse design strategy for high‐fidelity 3D surface reconstruction with deep learning‐based closed‐loop control, this approach enables zero‐energy shape locking,
