The University of Maine is contributing to the global effort to improve floating machines to harness wind over deeper offshore waters. Researchers envision turbine platforms floating in the ocean ...
Fig. 1: Wind interacts with buildings in very complex ways. This screenshot from the video shows wind velocities at 33 m height relative to the innovative Lidar system located at the upper left corner ...
Where on the planet are people's hats being knocked off by roaring wind? Where are the ghastly doldrums, where the air's so still not a single leaf rustles? The simulation relies on the raw power of ...
STARKVILLE, Miss.—A new wind-simulation system operating within a Mississippi State laboratory now enables researchers to measure gusts, turbulence and other environmental factors impacting drone ...
New Hereon study investigates uncertainties in calculating offshore wind power production in the North Sea Offshore wind ...
A new system using hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of embedded-control software releases keeps turbines up on the farm For its wind turbine control systems, Siemens’ engineers faced the challenge ...
Jane Housley, a BYU mathematics graduate and wildfire modeling researcher, developed a faster, smarter way to predict how wind moves through fire-prone terrain. Her work could help firefighters ...
Europe?s wind farms will soon face a wave of critical end-of-life decisions, with almost 30 percent (86 GW) of the region?s installed wind capacity approaching 20 years of operation ...
