Axial flow turbines are crucial in energy production and propulsion across diverse
applications. As global energy needs rise, optimizing turbine efficiency is paramount. This …

Tip loss correction is necessary for all aerodynamic computations based on the blade-
element momentum theory (BEMT) that plays an essential role in wind turbine design …

In this study, a reduction of 7.8–10.37% in the blade mass was achieved by optimizing the
thickness of unidirectional spars in the Sandia 100-m all-glass baseline blade for a 13.2 MW …

As conventional upwind wind turbines grow larger, the increased mass and flexibility of the
longer blades present challenges concerning costs, structural loads, and safety constraints …

For the past 30 years, offshore wind turbines exhibited a continual pattern of growth that is
expected to continue as the industry pushes for higher efficiency. Current designs for the …
