Abstract The windy environment is the main cause affecting the efficiency of offshore wind turbine installation. In order to improve the stability and efficiency of single-blade installation of offshore wind turbines under high wind speed conditions, the Stewart platform is used as an auxiliary tool to help dock the wind turbine blade in this paper. In order to verify the effectiveness of the Stewart platform for blade docking, a blade docking simulation system consisting of the Stewart platform, wind turbine blade, and wind load calculation module was built based on Simulink/Simscape Multibody. At the same time, the PID algorithm is used… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of space technologies, the requirements of precise pointing and extreme stability increase a lot for spacecrafts. For some spacecrafts, sensitive payloads, including space telescopes, imaging sensors, space-borne optical interferometers are essential for the missions, which require a relatively quiet working environment. Generally, a spacecraft includes multiple instruments, including reaction wheels, cryogenic coolers, control moment gyroscopes and solar array drives, which can produce micro-vibrations. However, the micro-vibrations from the spacecraft and orbital perturbations both have a serious influence on the performance of sensitive payloads. For the sensitive payloads, performance requirements of low vibration and jitter have become… More >
