Modern industrial-scale wind turbines are nonlinear systems that operate in turbulent
environments. As such, it is difficult to characterize their behavior accurately across a wide …

Manufacturing and maintenance costs arising out of wind turbine dynamic loading are one
of the largest bottlenecks in the roll-out of wind energy. Individual Pitch Control (IPC) is …

The problem of controlling coupled six-degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) relative motion of an
integrated-actuation spacecraft in the presence of actuator faults, and especially failures, is …

This work is focused on the improvement of variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbine
performance by means of its control structure. This kind of systems can be considered as …

This paper presents an educational software tool, called wtControlGUI, whose main purpose
is to show the applicability and performance of different decoupling control strategies in wind …

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR)-assisted Model Predictive Control (MPC) for wind
turbine control has received much attention for its ability to incorporate future wind speed …

Small wind turbines usually do not have pitch adjustable blades, hence the aerodynamic
starting of a small wind turbine is typically slow due the high angle of attack on the blades …

Individual pitch control (IPC) is gaining increasing acceptance as a method for mitigation of
periodic disturbances in wind turbines. This paper aims at formulating a repetitive control …

In this thesis, the objective is to monitor the wind turbine without stopping or interfering with
its operation. So, the monitoring of operating wind turbines with Operational Modal Analysis …

In this dissertation, nonlinear identification approaches are presented that construct Wiener
and Hammerstein models. These are block-oriented models consisting of a memoryless …
