    • An overall performance index for wind farms: a case study in Norway Arctic region 

      Mustafa, Albara; Barabadi, Abbas; Markeset, Tore; Naseri, Masoud (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-12)
      Wind farms (WFs) experience various challenges that affect their performance. Mostly, designers focus on the technical side of WFs performance, mainly increasing the power production of WFs, through improving their manufacturing and design quality, wind turbines capacity, their availability, reliability, maintainability, and supportability. On the other hand, WFs induce impacts on their surroundings, ...

    • Resilience Assessment of Wind Farms in the Arctic with the Application of Bayesian Networks 

      Mustafa, Albara; Barabadi, Abbas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-22)
      Infrastructure systems, such as wind farms, are prone to various human-induced and natural disruptions such as extreme weather conditions. There is growing concern among decision makers about the ability of wind farms to withstand and regain their performance when facing disruptions, in terms of resilience-enhanced strategies. This paper proposes a probabilistic model to calculate the resilience of ...

    • Risk and Resilience Assessment of Wind Farms Performance in Cold Climate Regions 

      Mustafa, Albara (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2023-03-13)
      Wind energy conversion systems such as wind farms are growing in numbers and capacity all over the globe. The onshore wind energy generation sector witnessed an increase of approximately 144 TWh during 2020, with onshore wind farms capacity addition of 108 GW, which is twice as much as the added capacity during 2019 (IEA, 2021). This staggering increase in capacity imposes higher needs for improved ...

    • Risk assessment of wind farm development in ice proven area 

      Mustafa, Albara; Barabadi, Abbas; Markeset, Tore (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      There many risks associated with wind farms operating in cold harsh areas, a number of these risks is caused by icing. Atmospheric and super-structure icing can cause ice accretion on wind turbines’ structure, and lead to public safety risks caused by ice throw and the failure of wind turbine’s components. Other risks can affect wind farm’s maintenance crew and their activities. Such risks are ...
