Liquid fossil fuel is anticipated to run out by the mid-2060s. The destruction of land, water, and air due to fossil fuel use contributes to environmental degradation. Policymakers, scientists, and researchers are looking into power generation from r...
As offshore wind capacity could grow substantially in the coming years, floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are particularly expected to make a significant contribution to the anticipated global installed capacity. However, FOWTs are prone to sev...
The emerging industry of offshore wind turbines mounted on floating bases has garnered significant attention from both academia and industry. The desire to understand the complex physics of these floating structures has led to the development of nume...
In this quick study, we estimated the Weibull distribution’s parameters using wind data collected between March 2017 and January 2018 using a twelve-meter mast meteorological station on the grounds of the National Energy Research Center in Khar...
Wind energy is an important renewable energy source. Rotor main bearings are critical components of wind turbines since a faulty main bearing leads to downtime and high repair costs. Operational expenditures amount to 32% of wind energy costs. The us...
The simulation of stochastic wind loads is necessary for many applications in wind engineering. The proper-orthogonal-decomposition-(POD)-based spectral representation method is a popular approach used for this purpose, due to its computational effic...
Wind power output fluctuations, driven by variable wind speeds, create significant challenges for grid stability and the efficient use of wind turbines, particularly in high-wind-penetration areas. This study proposes a combined approach utilizing an...
Considering that wind power is proportional to the cube of the wind speed variable, which is highly random, complex power grid management tasks have arisen as a result. Wind speed prediction in the short term is crucial for load dispatch planning and...
The RC propeller performance under steady and sinusoidally time-varying freestream (stream-wise or longitudinal gust) was investigated in the University of Dayton Low-Speed Wind Tunnel (UD-LSWT) in the open-jet configuration. The propellers were test...
High-rise buildings cause accelerated winds around them. However, the interference effects of high-rise buildings on the surrounding low-rise buildings in urban blocks have not been evaluated. This study investigated the wind pressure coefficients on...
