Data from: Optimal blade pitch control for enhanced vertical-axis wind turbine performance
Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest
This directory contains open-source data obtained using a single-bladed H-type vertical-axis wind turbine prototype with individual blade pitching. This data results from the optimisation of the blade's pitching kinematics using a genetic algorithm at two ...
Zenodo2024The dynamics and timescales of static stall
Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest, Julien Dominique Claude Deparday
Airfoil stall plays a central role in the design of safe and efficient lifting surfaces. We typically distinguish between static and dynamic stall based on the unsteady rate of change of an airfoil’s angle of attack. Despite the somewhat misleading denotat ...
2021Downside Up:Rethinking Parcel Position for Aerial Delivery
Dario Floreano, Przemyslaw Mariusz Kornatowski, William John Stewart, Mir Alikhan Bin Mohammad Feroskhan
The conventional approach to parcel placement in most delivery drone designs today is to place the parcel centrally beneath the drone's rotor plane. However, if the parcel is too large, this will result in an obstruction of the propeller slipstream, incurr ...
2020Design and development of the efficient anguilliform swimming robot- MAR
Auke Ijspeert, Peter Eckert, Anouk Looijestijn
Propulsion of swimming robots at the surface and underwater is largely dominated by rotary propellers due to high thrust, but at the cost of low efficiency. Due to their inherently high speed turning motion, sharp propeller blades and generated noise, they ...
