This study describes the VERIFICATION of Wind Atlas Analysis and Application program (WAsP) modelled average wind speeds in a complex terrain. WAsP model was run using data collected at 3 masts: Kalkumpei, Nyiru and Sirima using cup anemometers and wind vanes for the entire 2009 calendar year and verified using data collected by WindTracer LIDAR (light detection and ranging) for 2 weeks from 11th to 24th July 2009. Evaluating WAsP mean wind speed map using LIDAR data showed that Nyiru station provides the best data to model mean wind speed over the wind farm domain with a mean difference of 0.16 m/s, root mean square error of 0.85 m/s and Index of Agreement of 0.61. Construction of a 310 MW windfarm has commenced at this site. Once completed, the windfarm will be operating 365 vestas V52-850kW turbines.

Elekta linear accelerator is equipped with a motorized wedge which produces the wedge angles of less than 60° continuously by the combination of a wedged field and an open field with appropriate proportions. The effective wedge angles for various field sizes and depths were calculated using an analytical formula and a 2-D array detector data. The validity of the effective wedge angles has been done by determining wedge angles in accordance with ICRU-24. The effect of the field size on the wedge angle and wedge factor was investigated for motorized wedge. The maximum difference between planned and measured angles was found to be about 10̊ . The planned dose for different wedge angles and field sizes compared with measured doses and their differences were found to be less than 3%. The calculating wedge factor throughout linear interpolation method for all field sizes from a few selected measurements had been proved for physical wedge beforehand. This method was applied to obtain the wedge factors with field size and compared with measured data for motorized wedge. The errors were in agreement with ICRU proposed error and less than treatment planning system error. The linear relation between wedge angle and output factor and depth were investigated and the linear interpolation method was proved to calculate wedge angle for any output factor and depth.
