Abstract In Reliability-based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (RBMDO), the key performance functions of wind turbine are usually implicit, which means the performance …
This paper presents a method for multidisciplinary design optimization of offshore wind turbines at system level. The formulation and implementation that enable the integrated …
This paper discusses the size and shape optimization of a guyed radio mast for radiocommunications. The considered structure represents a widely industrial solution due …
The development of large-scale wind turbines is challenged by loads, mass, and cost growth, and more flexible blades that impact power and tower clearance. Further, the long …
Wind energy is one of the renewable energies considered by many nations as a strategy to mitigate the impact of climate change. There are also impacts of climate change on wind …
The US offshore wind resource potential is vast, and often in close proximity to densely- populated coastal load centers. In many US coastal areas, water depths favor the …
Abstract Metaheuristic Optimization Techniques and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have proven to be useful tools to find the best design solutions for different structural systems …
