Hello, Thanks for your interest in WISDEM and the DrivetrainSE module. We certainly acknowledge a deficiency in the documentation in this area. The best that is available is [here](https://wisdem.readthedocs.io/en/master/wisdem/drivetrainse/components.html), however...

WISDEM is a steady-state/static code. It computes an idealized, steady-state power curve for performance and AEP calculations. For loading, it assumes a gust arrives while at rated conditions to form...

@James-Ilosta - That error usually arises when you have activated the tip deflection constraint, but have deactivated some of the modules necessary to calculate it. Would you be able to...

For blade design, WISDEM is limited to the steady state analysis that we discussed above, and therefore cannot account for fatigue or off-design performance. There have been recent improvements in...

@James-Ilosta - Which generator technology model were you looking at? One of the PMSGs? DFIG? @lssraman - Once answered, would you be able to explain some of these variables? I...

I've tracked down all but `alpha_p`: "alpha_p" "cofi" - power factor "h_i" - coil insulation thickness "h_0" - Slot height "h_sy0" - (Don't know, but it isn't used in any...

Thank you for passing these along. I am in the process of figuring out what is going on with the tests after changes to upstream libraries. In general, we do...

Can you be sure that you are consistent with the `master` branch? There was a series of bug-fixes a couple of weeks ago. I cannot replicate your error.

So you were able to run without an error? The `compare_designs` script should have created and saved a number of figures similar to the one you linked to. Please check...

The files are there somewhere. When I tested things out and ran the `compare_designs` script, it created a new `outputs` folder in the directory where it was run and put...
