1. Aerodynamics of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Development of Simulation Tools and Experiments
Abstract : This thesis combines measurements with the development of simulation tools for vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT). Numerical models of aerodynamic blade forces are developed and validated against experiments. The studies were made on VAWTs which were operated at open sites. READ MORE

2. Numerical Investigation of Unsteady Crosswind Aerodynamics for Ground Vehicles
Abstract : Ground vehicles are subjected to crosswind from various origins such as weather, topography of the ambient environment (land, forest, tunnels, high bushes...) or surrounding traffic. READ MORE

3. Aerodynamics of two trucks driving in close-proximity
Abstract : There are several factors driving the development of vehicles with higher efficiency in society, chief among them are the emissions of greenhouse gases and their contribution to global warming. Therefore, there is a strong incentive to improve heavy-duty trucks' energy efficiency, supported by new legislation. READ MORE

4. Development of Separation Phenomena on a Passenger Car
Abstract : The general shape of a vehicle influences its aerodynamic performance through separation phenomena and flow structure development. Since these flow characteristics have a direct influence on the energy efficiency, safety and comfort, it is essential to study their formation and evolution into the freestream. READ MORE

5. Driving stability of passenger vehicles under crosswinds
Abstract : Passenger cars are a vital part of modern society, giving people the freedom of flexible travel. As technology advances, customers increase their demands for future products. The automotive industry must, therefore, adapt to society's requirements of energy-efficient travel, where developing low drag vehicles is key. READ MORE
