BDN, WABI report on Windstorm Challenge at UMaine
The Bangor Daily News and WABI (Channel 5) reported on the Windstorm Challenge, an annual competition hosted by the University of Maine Advanced Structures and Composites Center in which teams of middle and high school students create floating platforms for wind turbines that can best withstand wind and waves. Students’ platforms were tested in the wind-wave basin at the center. Forty-five student teams from Old Orchard Beach to Caribou competed this year.
