In the past few decades, wind energy technology has undergone rapid development, with
large-scale wind farms bringing about significant wake effect. Since the wake effect can …

A common retrofitting method for wind farms is the replacement of low-power turbines with
high-power ones. The determination of the optimal replacement sequence for the purpose of …

Wind farm modelling is an area of rapidly increasing interest with numerous analytical and
computational-based approaches developed to extend the margins of wind farm efficiency …

The maintenance of wind farms is one of the major factors affecting their profitability. During
preventive maintenance, the shutdown of wind turbines causes downtime energy losses …

Wake models play a fundamental role in predicting loads and power generated by wind
farms. Using them, it is possible to assess how wakes develop and interact with each other …

In wind energy and wind engineering research it is of fundamental importance to reproduce
correctly the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL). During wind tunnel testing various …

The rapid expansion of the wind energy market necessitates the need for sustainable and
clean energy resources that would reduce the dependency on non-renewable resources. In …

Wind farms contain locally clustered wind turbines and the benefits of this arrangement have
been well documented. Despite this, wakes produced by each turbine induce negative …
