Michael Howland, Esther and Harold E. Edgerton Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, has been selected as a recipient of the 2025 Young Investigator Program (YIP) award from the Office of Naval Research (ONR). The […]
The first comprehensive model of rotor aerodynamics could improve the way turbine blades and wind farms are designed and how wind turbines are controlled. […]
The MIT assistant professor works to get more electricity out of renewable energy systems. […]
By modeling the conditions of an entire wind farm rather than individual turbines, engineers can squeeze more power out of existing installations. Virtually all wind turbines, which produce more than 5 percent of the world’s electricity, […]
