The trend in the offshore wind turbine industry is towards using wind turbines with more
energy harvesting capacity per unit and greater power per mass ratios to compete with other …

The renewable energy sector witnesses increased demand due to energy crises and climate
change. Wind energy, in particular, is promising for reducing fossil fuel dependence and …

The establishment of a Digital Twin of an operating engineered system can increase the
potency of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) tools, which are then bestowed with …

In the current study, an operational modal analysis is performed on a wind turbine blade with
pull-and-release excitation at the tip. The experiments were carried out in large-scale facility …

This work is concerned with a structural health monitoring campaign of a 52-m wind turbine
blade. Multiple artificial damages are introduced in the blade sequentially, and fatigue …

The main aim of this research is to develop effective methods to estimate strength and
aerodynamic characteristics of small wind turbine blades for receiving the maximum …

The mode shapes of many beam-type structures, such as aircraft wings and wind turbine
blades, involve a high degree of coupling between flap-wise and edge-wise bending …

The present paper demonstrates the feasibility of detecting and quantifying crack-type
damage features in rotating wind turbine blades by Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) …

The detection and localization of different damage features in thin-wall beam composite and
plastic beams using Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) has been demonstrated …

The use of strain modes in structural health monitoring has been constantly increasing
because of their superior sensitivity to local structural anomalies. This study aims to …
