Met2Adapt: Modelling of the dynamic response for offshore wind farms | Courses | University of Liverpool
We will develop novel mathematical models to predict the dynamic phenomena arising in offshore wind farms and further model the acoustic waves generated by individual, and clusters of, wind turbines to help quantify the effect on wildlife, including birds, marine mammals, and fish.
