The world has witnessed an unprecedented growth of WF installation, driven by national
and international energy policies. Considering the negative impacts of fossil fuel and …

From conventional turbines to cutting-edge bladeless turbines, energy harvesting from wind
has been well explored by researchers for more than a century. The vortex bladeless wind …

This study presents a comparative experiment to investigate turbulent channel flows over
surfaces of rigid and flexible roughness. Using digital inline holographic particle tracking …

In this paper, a nonlinear model predictive controller (NMPC) is proposed for a vortex-
induced vibrations bladeless wind turbine (BWT). The BWT consists of a long rigid cylinder …

A vortex-induced vibration energy harvester consists of a relatively long cylinder mounted on
a flexible structure. In a flow field, the periodically shedding vortices induce transverse …

This work concerns the stochastic analysis of the bending of a slender cantilever beam
subject to an external force with the inclusion of a stochastic effect characterised by white …

There are a wide variety of devices behaving essentially as flexible and elastic systems
while interacting dynamically with fluids, usually water or air, under normal operating …

Electricity generation from wind energy extraction has massively developed. Various wind
energy extraction technology already known, including the newest one is Vortex-Induced …

Many researchers have studied different horizontal-axis and vertical-axis wind turbines
(VAWTs) by conducting the experimental and numerical simulations. However, the vertical …

In this paper, a modification of the mast, which is the main part of a vortex-induced wind
generator was considered in order to improve the performance. Numerical simulations were …
