When the pressure fluctuations caused by turbulence vorticity in the boundary layer are
scattered by a sharp trailing edge, acoustic energy is generated and propagated to the far …

Horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) are the primary devices used in the wind energy
sector. Systems used to evaluate the design of turbine blades and generators are key to …

Among renewable sources of energy, wind is the most widely used resource due to its
commercial acceptance, low cost and ease of operation and maintenance, relatively much …

The relatively low power coefficient restricts the wide application of vertical axis wind
turbines (VAWTs). An effective solution to this problem is to design specific airfoil profiles …

The inverse approach is computationally efficient in aerodynamic design as the desired
target performance distribution is prespecified. However, it has some significant limitations …

This paper collects the state of the art and the tremendous progress that has been made in
hybrid modeling of aeroacoustic sound. Hybrid modeling is defined such that flow and …

This paper presents the recent control technologies being researched for floating offshore
wind energy system (FOWES). FOWES has been getting many attentions recently as an …

Finite-difference, time-domain (FDTD) calculations are typically performed with partial
differential equations that are first order in time. Equation sets appropriate for FDTD …

This article describes the application of neural networks for the design optimization of a
curved wind turbine blade using an aero-elastic simulator with synthetic inflow turbulence. A …

Tidal current energy has the advantage of predictability over most of the other renewable
energy resources. However, due to the harsh operating environment and complicated site …
