Wind turbines are exposed unprotected to all weather events that occur. Today's turbines are unable to react adequately to events with rapid changes in wind speed and direction, often resulting in ...
The Exascale Comuting Project’s ExaWind suite of computational fluid dynamics codes are designed to develop predictive simulations of wind farms that contain dozens of megawatt-class turbines spread ...
Consider the inside of a typical wind turbine nacelle. It will contain a gearbox, electrical controls, a generator, hub mounting, blade controls, and several other major systems. In the case of ...
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 ...
