This paper presents an integrated methodology for the analysis of operationally-used turbine blades, incorporating aerodynamic and multiple structural simulations. In jet engines, blade rubbing and erosion lead to deviations ...

Considerable progresses have been made in computer-aided engineering for the high fidelity analysis of structures and systems. Traditionally, computer models are calibrated using deterministic procedures. However, different ...

Steel monopiles are support structures mostly applied for offshore wind turbines. Their installation is straightforward, in particular, in shallow and medium waters. While the wind turbine tower is primarily affected by ...

As rotor diameters and blade flexibility are increasing, current and future generation wind turbines are more susceptible to aeroelastic instabilities. It is thus important to know the prediction capabilities of state-of-the-art ...
