... is given, including the flow solver, the immersed boundary method for the fluid–structure interaction, the elastic kite model based on Hooke’s law, and the methods used to control the kite trajectory. In Sec. 3 , results from a baseline simulation of the kite–tether system are presented, including...

...Ali Behrouzifar; Masoud Darbandi The fluid–structure interaction (FSI) is generally addressed in multimegawatt wind turbine calculations. From the fluid flow perspective, the semi-analytical approaches, like actuator disk (AD) model, were commonly used in wind turbine rotor calculations. Indeed...
