Wind farm control has been a topic of research for more than two decades. It has been
identified as a core component of grand challenges in wind energy science to support …

Wind turbine parameterization models, which are often employed to avoid the computational
cost of resolving the blade aerodynamics, are critical for the capability of large-eddy …

The helix approach is a new individual pitch control method to mitigate wake effects of wind
turbines. Its name is derived from the helical shape of the wake caused by a rotating radial …

When dealing with multirotor devices such as quadcopters or wind farms, the cost of blade-
resolved large-eddy simulation (LES) becomes prohibitive. Combining LES with a family of …

Within the framework of the fourth phase of International Energy Agency IEA Wind Task 29, a
large comparison exercise between measurements and aero-elastic simulations has been …

The actuator line method is implemented into a residual-based variational multiscale (VMS)
fluid modelling framework to simulate airflow around a wind turbine. In the actuator line …

We perform the large-eddy simulation of the flow past a helicopter rotor to support the
investigation of rotorcraft wake characteristics and decay mechanisms. A hybrid Lagrangian …

From small drones to large Urban Air Mobility vehicles, the market of vertical take-off and
landing (VTOL) aircraft is currently booming. Modern VTOL designs feature a variety of …

Predicting the power and loads of wind turbines in waked inflow conditions still presents a
major modelling challenge. It requires the accurate modelling of the atmospheric flow …

The development of new wind farm control strategies can benefit from combined analysis of
flow dynamics in the farm and the behavior of individual turbines within one simulation …
