Operational fatigue loading on tidal turbine blades using computational fluid dynamics
Finnegan, William; Fagan, Edward; Flanagan, Tomas; Doyle, Adrian; Goggins, Jamie (Elsevier, 2020-01-20)As the world moves to a greater reliance on renewable energy, a vital component will be the predictability and dependability of the energy source; tidal energy provides such a solution. Horizontal axis tidal turbines are ... -
Physical experimental static testing and structural design optimisation for a composite wind turbine blade
Fagan, Edward M.; Flanagan, M.; Leen, Sean B.; Flanagan, Tomas; Doyle, Adrian; Goggins, Jamie (Elsevier, 2016-12-10)This study presents experimental testing on a 13 m long glass-fibre epoxy composite wind turbine blade. The results of the test were used to calibrate finite element models. A design optimisation study was then performed ... -
Short basalt fibre reinforced recycled polypropylene filaments for 3D printing
Ghabezi, Pouyan; Flanagan, Tomas; Harrison, Noel M. (Elsevier, 2022-08-12)Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing, and specifically Material Extrusion) is a rapid and convenient manufacturing method using raw material in filament form and is a potential candidate process for the use of recycled ...
