Wind Turbine Aeroelastic Stability in OpenFAST Open
Wind turbines are growing in size and increasingly suffer from aeroelastic instabilities. Unfortunately, numerical models often show inconsistent results during verification studies. We address this gap by first introducing novel lineariza…

How to Flip a GE1.5 Wind Turbine from Upwind to Downwind Open
An experiment is planned on a 1.5 MW wind turbine to make its rotor operate in a downwind configuration. The talk at the NAWEA WindTech 2023 conference will discuss how such a challenging experiment has been prepared and will show the ongo…
