・Γ(x+1)≈1+b1*x+b2*x^2+b3*x^3+b4*x^4+b5*x^5+b6*x^6+b7*x^7+b8*x^8.(Approximation of Hastings.Reference[2])
b1=-0.577191652
b2=0.988205891
b3=-0.897056937
b4=0.918206857
b5=-0.756704078
b6=0.482199394
b7=-0.193527818
b8=0.035868343
・Γ(1+x)=x*Γ(x).
・Γ(x)*Γ(-x)=-π/(x*sin(π*x)).(Reference[1])
・『The shape factor will typically range from 1 to 3. For a given average wind speed, a lower shape factor indicates a relatively wide distribution of wind speeds around the average while a higher shape factor indicates a relatively narrow distribution of wind speeds around the average. A lower shape factor will normally lead to a higher energy production for a given average wind speed.』(Reference[3])
・『The Weibull probability density function expresses the probability p(x) to have a wind speed x during the year』(Reference[3])
