A new system using hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of embedded-control software releases keeps turbines up on the farm For its wind turbine control systems, Siemens’ engineers faced the challenge ...

North Carolina State University researchers have created a model that simulates wind, waves, tides and currents to help pinpoint areas best suited for various types of offshore energy generation.

In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...

The University of Maine is contributing to the global effort to improve floating machines to harness wind over deeper offshore waters. Researchers envision turbine platforms floating in the ocean ...

Wind turbines may seem innocuous enough, but they have the potential to reshape the air birds fly through. In a recent ...

Wind Engineering, Vol. 44, No. 5 (October 2020), pp. 483-493 (11 pages) Wind farm control has demonstrated power production improvements using yaw-based wake steering compared to individual turbine ...
