Wind Characteristics and Resources
DC1
Provision of a novel data set of tall wind profiles based on a systematic approach to collect, quality control, and analyse a wide range of observations and use this for a standardised validation of corresponding hindcast and reanalysis products (UiB).​​​
The first development of a standardised wind speed profile applicable up to 500 m based on a combined clustering and numerical modelling approach computed from available data (TUD).

02
Aerodynamics
DC4
Developing reliable dynamic inflow models that address 3D effects and experimentally validate them for inflow conditions and aeroelastic effects (TUD).
The first development of a standardised wind speed profile applicable up to 500 m based on a combined clustering and numerical modelling approach computed from available data (TUD).
DC5
DC6
This research will explore the use of vortex generators to enable high aerodynamic performance of thick airfoils. Further, for use at outer part of the blades low drag VGs become important due to high rotational velocities (DTU).
03
Structures
DC7
The first investigation to provide sharp lower bounds for geometrical nonlinearities. The first approach for assimilation of experimental data in structural analysis (UiB).
The analysis of effect of XL blade size of the acting and damage
mechanisms, considering increased tip velocity and the larger role of torsional forces. Predictive model of extra-large blade damage under the effect of torsional forces (DTU).
DC8
04
Aeroelasticity
DC9
The first approach to evaluate different fidelity of CSD-CFD analysis to quantify its technical limits and to provide detailed dynamics and loads investigations for highly flexible and coupled blade (DTU).
The first approach is to design an optimized IPC controlled partial pitched modular blade to mitigate the loads and to enhance manufacturability and transportability (DTU).
DC10
DC11
We will release into the public domain new stability analysis tools of improved accuracy and general applicability, for rapid uptake by industry and academia (TUM).
