Modeling unsteady loads on wind-turbine blade sections from periodic structural oscillations and impinging gusts
Nathaniel J. Wei, Omkar B. Shende
Many traditional methods for wind turbine design and analysis assume quasi-steady aerodynamics, but atmospheric flows are inherently unsteady and modern turbine blades are suscepti…

Power-generation enhancements and upstream flow properties of turbines in unsteady inflow conditions
Nathaniel J. Wei, John O. Dabiri
Energy-harvesting systems in complex flow environments, such as floating offshore wind turbines, tidal turbines, and ground-fixed turbines in axial gusts, encounter unsteady stream…
