Advanced Wind Turbine Control Systems
Wind turbine control is necessary to ensure low maintenance costs and efficient performance. The control system also guarantees safe operation, optimizes power output, and ensures long structural life. Read more
Towards Efficient Wind Turbine Tower Design Using Advanced Computational Analyses
Driven by the carbon neutrality goal, wind energy, as one of the clean and renewable energy resources, has been gaining popularity worldwide. Read more
Improving the fatigue life assessment of offshore wind turbine support structures by considering manufacturing imperfections
An efficient source of renewable energy, which is increasingly the preferred solution for realising the UK’s short- and long-term energy demand, is offshore wind. Read more
Advanced Wind Turbine Technology for Urban Environments
Wind is one of the main renewable energy sources in the world and wind turbines are the main technology that converts wind energy to electricity. Read more
Evaluating the Impact of the Control Strategy in the Optimization of MultiMW Offshore Direct-Drive Wind Turbine Structures
The School of Computing, Engineering and the Built Environment, “SCEBE”, at Edinburgh Napier University is a portal for research and knowledge transfer that has contributed extensively to develop and promote renewable and sustainable energy devices in the UK and abroad over the last 30 years. Read more
Damage characterisation and root cause analysis of wind turbine pitch bearings
Blade pitch bearings of large scale wind turbines control the individual blades in order to maximise power generation at low wind speeds and to prevent turbine damages under high winds. Read more
CFD Study of Wind Turbine Aerodynamics
Wind turbine is the main technology that converts wind energy to electricity. The interaction between air flow and the turbine blade are critical to the structure integrity and noise generation of the turbine. Read more
Investigation of white etching crack damage mechanism in wind turbine gearbox bearings
Modern wind turbine gearbox bearings are failing prematurely, by white structure flaking and axial cracking, which may be caused by the propagation of subsurface white etching cracks (WECs). Read more
Simulations of Floating Offshore Wind
There is limited practical industrial experience in installing and operating of floating wind turbines, due to their relative novelty, especially compared to fixed offshore wind turbines. Read more
PhD Studentships in Offshore Renewable Energy (Mechanical Engineering with SGRE)
The Wind & Marine Energy Systems & Structures (WAMSS) is an EPSRC-funded Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT), led by the University of Strathclyde, working collaboratively with Universities of Oxford and Edinburgh. Read more
Advanced digital signal processing for condition monitoring for rotative electrical machines.
The production of electric energy from wind technology has experience great advances in the later years. It is estimated that the potential of wind energy in the world is between 20.000 x 106 and 50.000 x 106 MWh/year, whereas the energy consumption is about 15.000 x 106 MWh/year. Read more
Critical assessment of end of design life fatigue damage analysis for life-extension of offshore wind infrastructure
An efficient source of renewable energy, which is increasingly the preferred solution for realising the UK’s short- and long-term energy demand, is offshore wind. Read more
Graphene/Nanoparticles Reinforced Multi-scale Carbon/Glass Composites for Advanced Aerospace and Automobile Engineering PhD
Fibre reinforced composites have excellent in plane strength and stiffness and are being used in increasing quantities in aerospace, sports, automotive and wind turbine blade industries. Read more
Reliability Modelling and Improvement for Power Converters in Offshore Wind farms
Fully Funded Doctoral Studentship in Electrical Engineering, Department of Engineering, Durham University. Read more
