New wind field models accurately describe wind gusts

Researchers at the University of Oldenburg, Germany, have developed a new statistical model with which they can describe wind turbulence with considerably greater accuracy than ever before. The team of scientists from the Institute of Physics and the ForWind Center for Wind Energy Research also developed a method that uses this model to calculate fully three-dimensional wind fields based on data from a limited number of real-world measurement points.
