• 4P operational harmonic and blade vibration in wind turbines: a real case study of an active yaw system and a concrete tower 

      Torres Elizondo, Antonio; Gil Soto, José Javier; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Aginaga García, Jokin Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2024)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      This study aims to comprehensively investigate the impact of mechanical loads on the performance and lifetime of wind turbines, with particular emphasis on blade vibration at the 4P operational harmonic. Experiments and ...
    • Instantaneous amplitude and phase signal modeling for harmonic removal in wind turbines 

      Zivanovic, Miroslav Upna Orcid; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Carlosena García, Alfonso Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      We present a novel approach to harmonic disturbance removal in single-channel wind turbine acceleration data by means of time-variant signal modeling. Harmonics are conceived as a set of quasi-stationary sinusoids whose ...
    • Lidar-based feedforward control design methodology for tower load alleviation in wind turbines 

      Miquélez Madariaga, Irene; Lizárraga Zubeldia, Idoia; Díaz de Corcuera Martínez, Asier; Elso Torralba, Jorge Upna Orcid (John Wiley & Sons, 2022)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Minimising tower loads is a key issue for the optimal operation and cost-effective design of wind turbines. Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) technologies enable the measurement of free wind ahead of the rotor and the ...
    • Linear uncertain modelling of LIDAR systems for robust wind turbine control design 

      Miquélez Madariaga, Irene; Lizarraga Zubeldia, Idoia; Díaz de Corcuera Martínez, Asier; Elso Torralba, Jorge Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensors measure the free wind ahead of the rotor, enabling the use of new feedforward control strategies. However, there exist some sources of error inherent to the measuring process that ...
    • Triaxial accelerometer based azimuth estimator for horizontal axis wind turbines 

      Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Ros Ganuza, Javier Upna Orcid; Gainza, Gorka; Fuentes Lárez, José David (Elsevier, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      One of the elements that receives the greatest stresses is the main shaft. Its damage is directly related to the cyclical nature of its rotational motion. However, the vast majority of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) ...
