Development of a robust nonlinear pitch angle controller for a redesigned 5MW wind turbine blade tip

Power in wind turbines are traditionally controlled by varying the pitch angle at high wind speeds in region 3 of the wind turbine operation. The pitch angles controllers are normally driven by electrical or hydraulic actuators. The motivation of this research is to design and implement a pitch angl...
