This paper presents a heuristic building block for wind farm layout optimization algorithms. For each pair of wake-interacting turbines, a vector is defined. Its magnitude is proportional to the wind speed deficit of the waked turbine due to the waking turbine. Its direction is c ...
We present an analysis of three datasets of 10min metocean measurement statistics and our resulting recommendations to both producers and users of such datasets. Many of our recommendations are more generally of interest to all numerical measurement data producers. The datasets a ...
The construction and management of a wind farm involve many disciplines. It is hard for a single designer or developer to keep an overview of all the relevant concepts, models, and tools. Nevertheless, this is needed when performing integrated modeling or analysis. To help resear ...
Wind farms form an ever increasing share of the world’s electricity production capacity. But now that wind energy subsidy schemes are coming to an end, the cost per unit of electricity produced must become structurally lower than the fossil fuel-based power plants society wants r ...
Wind farm sites can have complex, disconnected shapes and may encompass exclusion zones. Even offshore this is the case, due to sea lanes, underwater pipelines and cables, wrecks, and unidentified buried objects. An example is Borssele Wind Farm Site IV1 (BWFS IV), which is pictu ...
We investigate how to model indifference with choice functions. We take the coherence axioms for choice functions proposed by Seidenfeld, Schervisch and Kadane as a source of inspiration, but modify them to strengthen the connection with desirability. We discuss the properties of ...
We describe a probabilistic approach to design airfoils for wind energy applications. An analytical expression is derived for the probability of perturbations to the operational blade-section angle of attack. It includes the combined influence of wind shear, yaw-misalignment, and ...

Eliciting Sets of Acceptable Gambles

We present an interface for eliciting sets of acceptable gambles on a three-outcome possibility space, discuss an experiment conducted for testing this interface, and present the results of this experiment. Sets of acceptable gambles form a representation for imprecise probabilit ...

OWFgraph

A graph database for the offshore wind farm domain

The construction and management of an offshore wind farm involves many disciplines, e.g. meteorology and economics. It is hard for a single researcher to keep an overview of all the relevant concepts, models, and tools from these disciplines. Nevertheless, this is needed when per ...
