This paper presents a variable speed control of two-mass wind turbine with unknown stiffness. The aim of the algorithm is to control rotor speed in order to maintain optimum tip-speed ratio and obtain maximum power output of the turbine with the appearance of unknown stiffness. The algorithm is form...
