Abstract: This paper introduces an observer-based method to control nonlinear large-scale wind turbines to reduce structural loads while maintaining the rotor speed and extracted power in wind speed ...

Abstract: This paper investigates inerter-based passive structural control problem for wind turbines to reduce the wind-induced loads, where the inerter-based dynamic vibration absorber (IDVA) is ...

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) installed in cold regions are prone to risking ice collisions, leading to potential damage of the support structure. It is imperative to quantitatively investigate the ...

Prompt site assessment of wind damage from major storms such as hurricanes and tornadoes is a crucial step in determining the extent of property loss. The assessment of wind damage is important for ...

In the wake of the aftershocks felt in some countries in the Gulf following the recent earthquakes in Iran and Pakistan, the Building Department of Dubai Municipality has issued a circular amending ...
