    Keywords : Machine Learning; Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Network; Wind Power; Damage Equivalent Loads; Fatigue; Wind Turbine Blades; NEWA Data; SCADA; Lillgrund Wind Farm;

    Abstract : In recent years, machine learning applications have gained great attention in the wind power industry. Among these, artificial neural networks have been utilized to predict the fatigue loads of wind turbine components such as rotor blades. READ MORE

  4. 3. Determination of an Optimum Sector Size for Plan Position Indicator Measurements using a Long Range Coherent Scanning Atmospheric Doppler LiDAR

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Elliot Simon; [2015]
    Keywords : LiDAR; WindScanner; PPI; Sector Scan; Dual Doppler; Remote Sensing; Wind Measurement;

    Abstract : As wind energy plants continue to grow in size and complexity, advanced measurement technologies such as scanning Doppler LiDAR are essential for assessing site conditions and prospecting new development areas.   The RUNE project was initiated to determine best practices for the use of scanning LiDARs in resource assessments for near shore wind farms.

  5. 4. An Assessment of the Discrepancy Between Operational Assessment and Wind Resource Assessment for a Wind Farm in Ireland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Johnny Gallagher; [2014]
    Keywords : Wind Resource Assessment; WindSim; WindPro; WAsP; Wind Energy; CFD;

    Abstract : An accurate wind resource assessment (WRA) is crucial in energy prediction as the power is directly proportional to the wind speed cubed. This thesis analyses the discrepancy between operational assessment and WRA for a wind farm located on a moderately complex terrain in Ireland. READ MORE

  6. 5. Case Study of Uncertainties Connected to Long-term Correction of Wind Observations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Elisabeth Saarnak; [2013]
    Keywords : wind climate; uncertainty; long-term correction; Measure-Correlate-Predict; MCP; reanalysis dataset; seasonal variation; on-site measurements; vindklimat; osäkerhet; normalårskorrigering; Measure-Correlate-Predict; MCP; återanalysdata; säsongsvariation; vindmätning;

    Abstract : Good knowledge about on-site wind climate is necessary in wind power assessments. Due to yearly and natural variability, short-term on-site measurements do not themselves give information about the wind climate. Long-term reference data can be used to correct the short-term observations to better correspond to a normal year. READ MORE
