The American Institute of Physics researchers discovered a significant mechanics that explores the dynamics of behaviors for wind turbines pertaining to ground and environment impacts during an earthquake. The team notes that wind power has been experiencing extremely fast growth during its poignant years especially in the region of Asia which makes the research well timed in order to capture the newly encapsulating technology that is aimed at focusing the re-invention of renewable energy resources. The team further observed the changes in the increasing flow of wind and decrease in response amplitude of the wind turbine under weak and strong earthquakes, respectively. One solution for capturing the newly accepted rate of renewable source of energy is to increase the technology surrounding wind power and the increasing number of wind farms is to discover the efficient input angles of earthquakes that can be influenced by seismic responses.
The team notes that asymmetry of aerodynamic damping and blade stiffness is expected to play a pivotal role in determining the dynamics of behavior among wind turbine structures during a rolling earthquake. Modern-large scale turbines use a model of variable speed and pitch control technology which means that their behavior and dynamics are proportionately affected by the controller factor of the latter. The dynamic response of wind turbines under these wind-earthquake condition show the coupling effect brought on by aeroservoelasticity– the subsequent interaction between inertial, elastic, and aerodynamic forces which occur when an elastic body is introduced to a fluid based flow. The team noted that wind and ground motion factors also project random vector fields with a complex time-based domain and spatial uncertainties are often left uncalculated when these factors are calculated in intermittent fashion.
