This pull request is almost ready to merge.

Feature or improvement description
New AeroDyn driver functionalities:

  • Multiple turbines with arbitrary number of blades and orientation (advanced rotor inputs)
  • Different motions for the base, nacelle yaw, and individual blade pitch: fixed values, sinusoidal, or arbitrary via time series
  • Simple wind definition (Power law), or InflowWind

Old features still supported:

  • Basic rotor inputs for HAWT (simply provide HubHeight, Tilt, Tower2Shaft)
  • Prescribed Time series of Wind Speed / PL Exp / Pitch / Yaw (AnalysisType=2)
  • Combined case analyses (AnalysisType=3)

Example of Applications

  • Sinusoidal motions of the Platform base
  • Vertical axis turbines
  • Multiple wind turbines
  • Quad rotor
  • Kites

110567794-4c540780-810f-11eb-9cf2-23273877ec0f

Impacted areas of the software
AeroDyn, OLAF

Additional supporting information

Check list

Test results, if applicable
Expected some small differences for OLAF Elliptical wing, will be resolved after #648 is merged

I think it all looks good, except the detail in IfW_FFWind_Base.f90
