Turby - sustainable urban wind power from the roof top
Bibliographic record
Abstract
If current trends are anything to go by, in future we will no longer produce all our electricity in large, central power stations. Small-scale local electricity generation will gain in importance. Sander Mertens, a post-doctoral student at TU Delft, developed the aerodynamic design of a wind turbine which is specifically suitable for built-up areas. Compact, mobile, low-noise, and vibration-free, it is the ideal alternative for use on top of high-rise office blocks, where wind speeds can easily reach twenty percent more than with the same height away from buildings. The electricity can be fed straight into the buildings power system, saving on energy transport costs and losses, and producing high feed-in yields. Prototypes have already been installed on the town hall in The Hague (designed by Richard Meier), on an apartment block in Tilburg, on an office block in Breda, and on top of the Delft ChemTech faculty building. Interest has been generated in London and Leicester in the UK, New Mexico and New York in the USA, and in France and Canada.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
