Measurement Systems and Methods

Our ambition is to stay world-leading in wind and wind turbine measurement techniques. By exploring new technological possibilities we will continue to support the Department’s experimental activities, delivering measurements of the highest quality, reliability and novelty.

MEM consists of a wonderfully diverse group of technicians, engineers and scientists. Together we span all the disciplines necessary for designing and conducting great measurements –  mechanical fabrication, data acquisition, sensor development, experimental design, data and uncertainty analyses.
