      Santos, Carlos Renan dos; Abdelmoteleb, Serageldin; Mendoza, Alejandra S. Escalera; Bachynski-Polic, Erin Elizabeth; Griffith, D. Todd; Oggiano, Luca (Chapter, 2022)
      Proportional-integral controllers are extensively applied to the pitch control of wind turbines. Despite its simplicity, this control strategy achieves good performance in onshore applications. However, the application of ...
    • Control Considerations for Very Large Floating Wind Turbines 

      Santos, Carlos Renan dos; Abdelmoteleb, Serageldin; Mendoza, Alejandra S. Escalera; Bachynski-Polic, Erin Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Increasingly large floating wind turbines (FWTs) are being introduced to access the offshore wind resource over deep water at lower cost. In connection with designing a 25 MW semi-submersible wind turbine, we examine the ...
