Biography
I graduated in 1986 at the TU Eindhoven at the faculty of Applied Physics. I joined the Section of Wind Energy later that year. I have been involved in projects concerning the design and dynamics of wind turbines (Indymo, Duwecs, Focus, WindSim, Lawine) as well as offshore wind energy (Opti-Owecs, Dowec, Flow, Innwind). Currently I am focusing on wind field simulation (Swing, NewGust) and I am responsible for the MSc course Site Conditions for Wind Turbine Design
