Accurate typhoon inflow characterization is essential for offshore wind turbine safety in typhoon-prone regions. This study presents a physics-informed WRF–TurbSim framework that reconstructs rotor-relevant, stage-aware inflow fields for Typhoon In-Fa (2021) by mapping mesoscale stability and turbulence diagnostics into a User-Defined von Kármán model. Spectral and coherence checks confirm consistency with the imposed constrai...

Research on physical activity (PA) and health has a fundamental concern with dose–response relationships. The variables of (1) Frequency, (2) Intensity, (3) Time, and (4) Type (i.e., the FITT principle) have traditionally been used to operationalize the dosage of PA. We consider some limitations of FITT and propose that it can be complemented by the additional variable density (from the German exercise and training variable Be...

The precise wake model is crucial for accurately estimating wind farm loads and power, playing a key role in wake control within wind farms. This study proposes a segmented dual-Gaussian wake model, which is built upon existing dual-Gaussian wake models but places greater emphasis on the influence of initial wake generation and evolution processes on the wind speed profile in the near-wake region. The enhanced model optimizes...

Yaw misalignment can make a wake steer, which is an effective method to increase the power of wind farms but it also increases the fatigue load of the turbines. In this paper, the combination of yaw offset and pitch control (CYMP) is studied to analyse the potential mitigation of wake, focusing on the wind velocity and turbulence of the wake distribution, power increment, and fatigue load reduction. The simulation case study s...

Wake effects commonly exist in offshore wind farms, which will cause a 10–20% reduction of whole power production as well as a 5–15% increase of fatigue loading on the wind turbine main structures. Obviously wake interaction between floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) is more complicated, and needs careful assessment which is a prerequisite for active wake control (AWC). The primary objective of the present research is to in...

Color preference testing for animals is a prerequisite for optimizing facilities and ensuring animal welfare in aquaculture. Swimming crabs (Portunus trituberculatus) are aggressive, and shelters are often installed in ponds to reduce the high mortality rate caused by their agonistic behavior. To test the preference of juvenile crabs for the color of shelters, this study observes the preferences of crabs for shelters of differ...

The wake management of offshore wind farms (OWFs) mainly considers the wake effect. Wake effects commonly occur in offshore wind farms, which cause a 5–10% reduction in power production. Although there have been many studies on wake management, many methods are not accurate enough; for instance, look-up table and static wake model control methods do not consider the time-varying wake state. Dynamic wake management is based on...

Environmental problems such as organic pollution and eutrophication caused by highly intensive mariculture activities constrain the sustainable and healthy development of industry. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify the nutrient dynamics of aquaculture animals in order to reduce the risk of environmental pollution. In this study, a discontinuous individual growth model of Portunus trituberculatus in an intensive maricultur...
