Over the years, the wind energy industry has grown rapidly because of its eco-friendly and
sustainability features. The development of wind industry demands larger wind turbines …

The present state of condition monitoring of civil infrastructure involves the application of a
large number of contact-based vibration sensors at different locations of the structures. The …

Previous studies have shown that nonlinear inerters can achieve superior vibration
suppression compared to linear inerters, such as broadening the effective frequency band of …

Site suitability problems in renewable energy studies have taken a new turn since the
advent of geographical information system (GIS). GIS has been used for site suitability …

In 2007, the EU established challenging goals for all Member States with the aim of
obtaining 20% of their energy consumption from renewables, and offshore wind is expected …

A pendulum pounding tuned mass damper (PTMD), based on Hertz contact law, is proposed
for vibration suppression in wind turbines. A boundary consisting of viscoelastic material is …

The increased demand in energy and the need for sustainable and renewable sources of
electricity in hazardous environments with significantly growing population yields the …

This paper introduces a novel Fault Detection and Diagnosis method based on the wavelet
transform to detect defects on the tower of a wind turbine. 24 Macro-Fiber Composite …

Offshore wind turbines are vulnerable to external vibration sources such as wind and wave
excitations due to the increasing size and flexibility. It is necessary to mitigate the excessive …
