Short summary
Vibrations in wind turbines caused by wake vortices are well known but difficult to predict during design. This study examines a calibrated mathematical model replicating a cantilevered cylinder experiment under vibration-prone conditions. Results show the model’s ability to capture the body’s response while offering greater insight than current state-of-the-art prediction tools.
