Model-Based Design of a Wind Turbine Developing wind turbines requires a smooth, continuous development process in which modeling and simulation plays a large role. From the earliest design phase to the automatic generation of production code, engineers need the ability to test new idea

Determining Mechanical Loads for Wind Turbines Determining the mechanical loads a wind turbine experiences is a complex process that requires more than just a model of the mechanical system. To accurately predict maximum loads, deflections, and oscillations, the entire system must be modeled in o

Designing Pitch and Yaw Actuators for Wind Turbines Engineers designing yaw and pitch actuators for wind turbines need to take into account many of the other components in the overall system to produce an optimized design. Selecting a technology requires doing tradeoff studies in early stages to deter

Designing Control Systems For Wind Turbines The number and complexity of control systems in wind turbines is expanding rapidly, and their design can be the difference between an immensely profitable system and a dormant or damaged system. Designing a robust control system requires an accurate
