Computational Methods for Blade Icing Detection of Wind Turbines
This book thoroughly explores the realm of data-driven blade-icing detection for wind turbines, focusing on multivariate time series classification to enhance the reliability and efficiency of wind energy utilization. The widespread prevalence of sensor technology in wind turbines, coupled with substantial data collection, has paved the way for advanced data-driven methodologies, which do not require extensive domain knowledge or additional mechanical tools. The interdisciplinary appeal of this study has drawn attention from experts in fields like computer science, mechanical engineering, and renewable energy systems. Adopting a comprehensive approach, the book lays down a foundational framework for blade-icing detection, stressing the critical role of sensor data integration and the profound impact of machine learning techniques in refining the detection processes. The book is designed for undergraduate and graduate students keen on renewable energy technologies, researchers delving into machine learning applications in energy systems, and engineers focusing on sustainable solutions for enhancing wind turbine performance.
Maintenance Management of Wind Turbines
“Maintenance Management of Wind Turbines” considers the main concepts and the state-of-the-art, as well as advances and case studies on this topic. Maintenance is a critical variable in industry in order to reach competitiveness. It is the most important variable, together with operations, in the wind energy industry. Therefore, the correct management of corrective, predictive and preventive politics in any wind turbine is required. The content also considers original research works that focus on content that is complementary to other sub-disciplines, such as economics, finance, marketing, decision and risk analysis, engineering, etc., in the maintenance management of wind turbines. This book focuses on real case studies. These case studies concern topics such as failure detection and diagnosis, fault trees and subdisciplines (e.g., FMECA, FMEA, etc.) Most of them link these topics with financial, schedule, resources, downtimes, etc., in order to increase productivity, profitability, maintainability, reliability, safety, availability, and reduce costs and downtime, etc., in a wind turbine. Advances in mathematics, models, computational techniques, dynamic analysis, etc., are employed in analytics in maintenance management in this book. Finally, the book considers computational techniques, dynamic analysis, probabilistic methods, and mathematical optimization techniques that are expertly blended to support the analysis of multi-criteria decision-making problems with defined constraints and requirements.
Computational Techniques of Rotor Dynamics with the Finite Element Method
Rotor dynamics is both a classical and a modern branch of engineering science. The rotation of rigid bodies, mainly those with regular shapes such as cylinders and shafts, has been well understood for more than a century. However, analyzing the rotational behavior of flexible bodies, especially those with irregular shapes like propellers and blades, requires more modern tools such as finite elements, hence the title and focus of this book. In the dozen years since the original publication, this book was used in teaching engineering students at universities and in consulting in the industry. During those activities, several topics were deemed to require further explanations. Students requested a deeper finite element technology foundation in certain places to make the book self‐contained in that regard also. Some desired more details about the computational and numerical solutions. These requests are answered in new sections of this edition. Practicing engineers asked for a detailed industrial application case study and such was added in a new chapter dealing with wind turbines. This book is composed of two parts, the first focusing on the theoretical foundation of rotor dynamics and the second focusing on the engineering analysis of industrial structures. The theoretical foundation is built on physics, calculus, and finite element technology chapters. Computational and numerical techniques provide free vibration and response analyses solutions. The industrial engineering analysis part contains chapters analyzing jet‐engine turbine wheels, aircraft propellers, and wind turbine blades. This book concludes with a new industrial case study based on a recent modern wind turbine development project.
