- Funded by Vestas Wind Systems A/S, this investigation into the performance of large-scale wind turbines identifies, for the first time in the literature, a novel aerodynamic design paradigm to maximise energy yield. The work has led to follow on funding by EPSRC (EP/N006127/1) on wind turbine servo-aeroelastic optimisation, and to the establishment of the Wind Blade Research Hub in Bristol—a £2.3 million research partnership with the ORE Catapult (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/news/2017/june/turbine-blades.html).
