“…For the last one and half decades, rigorous research efforts are being devoted to controlling wind, wave, and earthquake-induced vibrations of onshore and offshore wind turbines using both TSDs and TLCDs (Altay et al, 2014; Awada et al, 2021; Colwell and Basu, 2006, 2009; Park et al, 2020; Zuo et al, 2020). Recently, Siemens Aktiengesellschaft has patented technology for wind-induced vibration control of direct-driven wind turbines using TSD (Jensen, 2016) (see Figure 18).…”

“…Here, it may be noted that the vibration of wind turbines is a multi-coupling phenomenon and generally much more complex as compared to other civil engineering structures (Awada et al, 2021). Thus, further studies with different configurations of TLDs may be specifically taken up for their applicability to the vibration control of different components of a wind turbine.…”

Passive tuned liquid dampers, being cost-effective, easy to implement, and reliable structural vibration control devices, have received significant attention from designers and researchers. Considerable works devoted to the extraction of higher damping, increase in volumetric efficiency, improvement in architectural adaptability, and use in a large spectrum of structures have led to the development of a variety of configurations of passive tuned liquid dampers. Rigorous research efforts are being devoted to the utilization of different forms of tuned liquid dampers for the vibration control of buildings, bridges, chimneys, wind turbines, etc. However, till now, only a few varieties of tuned liquid dampers have been implemented in real-life structures, while the others require further refinement. This necessitates the present work, through which a systematic review on tuned liquid dampers of various configurations for structural response reduction is presented, with a focus on the design of the dampers. To organize the review in a structured manner, the large family of tuned liquid dampers is categorized into five groups based on their energy dissipation mechanism, namely the tuned sloshing damper, tuned liquid column damper, combined tuned sloshing damper-tuned liquid column damper system, compliant liquid damper, and liquid damper with submerged tuned oscillator. The modeling, analysis, design, and performance-related aspects of the different varieties of tuned liquid dampers are covered. The advantages and applicability of the different types of tuned liquid dampers are highlighted along with their real-life installations. The current gaps in the development of the various tuned liquid damper configurations and scope of future developments are also identified.

“…Wind turbines can convert kinetic energy into electricity without any combustion, which leads to a reduction in environmental pollution by CO 2 , SOx and NOx [81]. With the development of machining technology and equipment, the cost and initial investment of wind turbines has significantly reduced [82], which has attracted more attention from stockholders and policy support for air-pollution reduction. The application of wind turbines plays a crucial role for countries who are heavily dependent on fossil-fuel imports.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the supply chains of traditional fossil fuels. According to a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) from 2020, oil-refining activity fell by more than the IEA had anticipated. It was also assumed that the demand in 2021 would likely be 2.6 million bpd below the 2019 levels. However, renewable markets have shown strong resilience during the crisis. It was determined that renewables are on track to meet 80% of the growth in electricity demand over the next 10 years and that sustainable energy will act as the primary source of electricity production instead of coal. On the other hand, the report also emphasized that measures for reducing environmental pollution and CO2 emissions are still insufficient and that significant current investments should be further expanded. The Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) conference series is dedicated to the advancement and dissemination of knowledge on methods, policies and technologies for improving the sustainability of development by decoupling growth from the use of natural resources. The 15th SDEWES conference was held online from 1–5 September 2020; more than 300 reports with 7 special sections were organized on the virtual conference platform. This paper presents the major achievements of the recommended papers in the Special Issue of Energies. Additionally, related studies connected to the above papers published in the SDEWES series are also introduced, including the four main research fields of energy saving and emission reduction, renewable energy applications, the development of district heating systems, and the economic assessment of sustainable energy.
