This paper analyses turbulent air flows in and around single and multiple rectangular buildings, with consideration of ventilation effects. The Navier-Stokes and k-ε equations of the turbulence model ...

In this special guest feature, Robert Roe from Scientific Computing World writes that HPC simulation provides a platform to develop advancements in energy generation technologies. Through the use of ...

There are a lot of annoying talking points against the use of wind farms — they’re an eyesore, they kill birds occasionally. But for the most part, these seem like small gripes if, in fact, wind power ...

Engineers go to great lengths to maximize the exposure of wind turbines, placing blades atop tall towers on the crests of hills or miles off shore over the wild, unprotected ocean. A new study has ...

Consider the inside of a typical wind turbine nacelle. It will contain a gearbox, electrical controls, a generator, hub mounting, blade controls, and several other major systems. In the case of ...

Inspired by SpaceX’s Super Heavy booster, a team led by Georgia Tech’s Spencer Bryngelson and New York University’s Florian ...
