LONDON Akselos has partnered with engineering consultancy BEPA A/S.

The partnership will work to apply Akselos’ patented reduced basis finite element analysis (RB-FEA) technology to advance wind turbine design and operations.

Akselos’ RB-FEA technology is the product of 10 years of research at MIT, and speeds up FEA simulations by 1,000x at system level scale, the company claimed.

The company has received an ARPA-E grant to develop a structural digital twin for the Wind Float Atlantic floating wind project.

John Grevsen, partner and Founder of BEPA, said: “RB-FEA is a potential revolutionary technology that will be a gamechanger for how we design and operate wind farms.”
