41322 Projects in Wind Turbine Aeroelasticity
Danish title: Aeroelasticitet for vindmøller
Language:  English    ECTS-creditpoints:  20, Internal examination.   
Class schedule:   F5
Recommended semester:  7th - 9th semester
Evaluation:  Oral presentation and approval of reports
Examination:  13-scale
Preferred prerequisites:  41313 41313 plus basic programming skills as e.g Matlab, Fortran, Pascal or C
Remarks:  A structural model of an entire wind turbine construction is programmed using a limited number of degrees of freedom. The structural model is coupled to an aerodynamic model for the loads. Further, the students are introduced to the commercial aeroelastic model FLEX. Different departments at DTU and the Department of Wind Energy, Risø will give the necessary key lectures.
