Linearization in Robust Tuning

[lucpavonese]

Hi,

I’m currently working to understand better the process outlined in 11_robust_tuning.py for robust tuning. One of my key questions concerns the linearized files. Are the openFAST input files and the process used to select the cases utilized for linearization documented or published anywhere (I am referring to the files found in examples/Test_Cases/IEA-15-240-RWT-UMaineSemi/linearizations)?

Any guidance or references you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Naturally, my goal is to repeat the same process with another platform.

Regards,
Luc

Hi Luc,

They are not posted anywhere, but the wind speeds can be found in the .lin files. From the number of files, you can see how many azimuthal positions were chosen. The linearization configuration is found in the main .fst file. There is also an example on the WEIS repository setting up linearizations.

I hope this helps.

Best, Dan
