The recent literature of evolutionary economic geography points out that new technologies do not emerge randomly across space. The evolution of the economic landscape is associated with processes of path creation, regional ...

The design of a fully superconducting wind power generator is influenced by several factors. Among them, a low number of pole pairs is desirable to achieve low AC losses in the superconducting stator winding, which greatly ...

The structural optimization problem of jacket substructures for offshore wind turbines is commonly regarded as a pure tube dimensioning problem, minimizing the entire mass of the structure. However, this approach goes along ...

All over the world an increase in the use of renewable energy sources is being sought, and here the utilisation of wind energy plays an important role. Germany currently represents one of the world's largest markets for ...

Pitch bearings of wind turbines are large, grease-lubricated rolling bearings that connect the rotor blades with the rotor hub. They are used to turn the rotor blades to control the power output and/or structural loads of ...

Die Konstruktion der Segmentbauweise ist im Brückenbau schon seit vielen Jahren eine etablierte Bauweise. Seit einigen Jahren kommt diese Bauweise auch für die Errichtung von Windenergieanlagen (WEA) zum Einsatz. Die aus ...

Zuverlässige und kostengünstige Energiegewinnung aus regenerativen Quellen ist die Basis für eine erfolgreiche Transformation des zu einem großen Bestandteil auf fossilen Brennstoffen basierenden Energieversorgungssystem ...
