Wind energy has become one of the most important forms of renewable energy. Wind
energy conversion systems are more sophisticated and new approaches are required based …

Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs), so named because of their vertical axis of rotation, are
a sustainable, opportune, and versatile means of producing energy. Their operation is not …

A novel U-type Darrieus Wind Turbine (UDWT) is proposed by this study. During the design
and optimization of UDWT, Machine Learning (ML) method based on BPNN and three …

This paper presents two methods for supporting investments and resource allocation in a
constrained risky environment. These methods are based on the application of logical …

To make multi-objective reliability-based design optimization (MORBDO) more effective for
complex structure with multi-failure modes and multi-physics coupling, multiple response …

Wind turbines are increasingly installed in cold regions because of better wind resources. In
these regions, high humidity and low temperature in winter increase the risk of ice …

One of the most important steps in designing wind turbines is to find airfoils with better
performance. One of the major hurdles with parameterizing the entire airfoil shape …

The oscillating body is one of the most common wave energy converters (WECs) owing to its
simple structure and adaptability to various wave directions. In recent years, many …

Stiffened thin steel plates are structures widely employed in aeronautical, civil, naval, and
offshore engineering. Considering a practical application where a transverse uniform load …
