Cohesion-Induced Enhancement of Aeolian Saltation

Michael Lehning, Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Francesco Comola

The wind-driven saltation of granular material plays a key role in various geophysical processes on Earth, Mars, Venus, and Titan. Although interparticle cohesion is known to limit the number of grains lifted from the surface through aerodynamic entrainmen ...

Short-Term Forecasting of Wake-Induced Fluctuations in Offshore Wind Farms

Arslan Salim Dar

The increasing share of offshore wind energy traded at the spot market requires short term wind direction forecasts to determine wake losses and increased power fluctuations due to multiple wakes in certain wind directions. The information on potential pow ...

Functional Data Analysis By Matrix Completion1

Victor Panaretos, Marie-Hélène Descary

Functional data analyses typically proceed by smoothing, followed by functional PCA. This paradigm implicitly assumes that rough variation is due to nuisance noise. Nevertheless, relevant functional features such as time-localised or short scale fluctuatio ...

Volumetric LiDAR scanning of a wind turbine wake and comparison with a 3D analytical wake model

Fernando Porté Agel, Fernando Carbajo Fuertes

A correct estimation of the future power production is of capital importance whenever the feasibility of a future wind farm is being studied. This power estimation relies mostly on three aspects: (1) a reliable measurement of the wind resource in the area, ...
