Description

OpenFAST is a publicly accessible wind turbine simulation software created by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). It enhances the earlier FAST v8 code, merging elements of aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, control mechanisms, and structural dynamics to facilitate detailed, coupled nonlinear aero-hydro-servo-elastic time-domain simulations of wind turbines. The tool accommodates various setups, such as onshore, fixed-bottom offshore, and floating offshore turbines. Designed to cultivate an open source developer community among research institutions, industry players, and academic circles, OpenFAST offers a comprehensive software engineering framework that includes well-structured source code, automated testing processes, and compatibility across multiple platforms. Significant updates from FAST v8.16 to OpenFAST feature the creation of a new GitHub repository that centralizes modules, glue codes, and compiling utilities; a revised versioning system; and the implementation of unit testing at the subroutine level. This evolution not only improves functionality but also enhances collaboration opportunities among users and developers involved in wind energy research.

Description

Wind River®, Simics®, allows you to simulate any system, chip to chip, giving you a path towards DevOps, continuous integration, and deployment. Simics is a full system simulator that software developers use to simulate complex electronic systems' hardware. Simics allows for on-demand access to any target system. This facilitates better collaboration between developers and more stable automation. Simics allows you to adopt new development techniques that are not possible with physical hardware. This will allow you to deliver better software quicker. Simics allowed us to increase our automation by 12,000%, and we can now fix bugs 90% quicker. Watch the video to see how the Wind River engineering team uses Simics internally to make CI/CD and DevOps a reality. Wind River®, Simics®, allows developers to have instant access to any target system at any given time. It facilitates better collaboration between developers, quality assurance teams, and other stakeholders.
