From Students to Students: a hands-on aeroelastic wind turbine laboratory platform
In recent years, courses on wind turbine modeling and control have been offered to students in the Master’s programs in Mechanical Engineering and Energy Engineering. These courses provide a theoretical foundation in aeroelastic modeling, dynamics, and control of wind energy systems. The goal of this thesis is to develop a practical framework that enables future

Systematic Validation and Expansion of Thermal Imaging Algorithms for Muscular Activity and Fatigue Monitoring
Contacts: Marta Gandolla, Andrea Dal Prete Location: Politecnico di Milano (Bovisa Campus) Motivation of the study: Monitoring muscle activation and fatigue is crucial for optimizing physical performance and preventing work-related musculoskeletal disorders, particularly in industrial environments where back-support exoskeletons are increasingly used. While Surface Electromyography (SEMG) is the traditional gold standard, it suffers from limitations such as
