The objective is to improve the design basis for large wind turbines by measuring wind and turbulence profiles at high altitude above a flat ground using modern instruments. The project will study
The vision is that the increased research on main wind turbine uncertainties and risk & reliability will lead to less conservative designs and more cost-efficient wind energy. Therefore, careful
The usage of new reinforcement fibre and resin systems allows for novel forms of blade design, cost optimisation and production methods that significantly reduces the production time.
Today, wind turbine control systems are designed separately from its structural, aerodynamic qualities, but to achieve cheaper, more reliable wind turbines, the design phases need to be united into
The project studied sediment bed conditions, scour/erosion, and quick-sand-like conditions that may occur due to the effects caused by wave and current action. Illustration from laboratory experiment
On a hot windy summer day, with beautiful clouds in the sky, the air is full of turbulence, like a hot pot of boiling water. In these unsteady surroundings a bird of prey is hovering, completely still
