Authors Adam Chehouri , Rafic Younes , Adrian Ilinca , Jean Perron Abstract Within the last 20 years, wind turbines have reached matured and the growing worldwide wind energy market will allow further improvements. In the recent decades, the numbers of research papers that have applied optimization techniques in the attempt to obtain an optimal design have increased. The main target of manufacturers has been to minimize the cost of energy of wind turbines in order to compete with fossil‐fuel sources. Therefore, it has been argued that it is more stimulating to evaluate

My latest article to appear online is entitled Optimal Design for a Composite Wind Turbine Blade with Fatigue and Failure Constraints . This is the first paper I wrote in the course of my PhD, submitted to the journal of Transaction of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering in January 2014, and accepted in December 2014 (Vol. 39, No. 2, 2015). 

My latest publication is a review paper titled Review of Performance Optimization Techniques Applied to Wind Turbines . I submitted my review to the journal of Applied Energy in August 2014 and it was accepted on December 21 2014. The article is now available online and should be published in Volume 132 (15 March 2015).
