Aeroelastic load measurements for solar trackers. Historically, tests of miniature rigid models in atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnels have been performed to estimate wind loading on single-axis tracker systems. However, some solar trackers are extremely flexible structures that twist and bend in the wind. Even if the tracker has locking mechanisms or multiple drives, there...
