Tiira is a wind turbine concept with tethered blades, designed to sweep an extraordinarily large area of air and thus extract more energy with a similarly sized system.
There is a lack of understanding of the potential environmental, social, and economic benefits of wind energy for local economies in Switzerland, and a lack of standardised tools for different Swiss cantons to use.
Recommendations for improving cross-disciplinary FAIR data sharing in wind energy
In the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer, an increasing number of engineering systems experience aerodynamic unsteady flows, including wind turbines, helicopters, and air vehicles. Interactions with the turbulence in the atmosphere can lead to large load fluctuations, shortened lifetime and reduced effectiveness of aerodynamic…
We work actively on improving diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), both in our own working environment and in the wind energy sector in general.
WeDoWind is a thriving community of diverse people from the wind energy sector sharing data and knowledge and learning from each other openly. WeDoWind is based on WeDoData, a Blueprint for an inclusive open innovation ecosystem developed by the Wind Energy Innovation Division of the Eastern Switzerland University of Applied…
