Structural Health Monitoring

  • Reallabor – Innovationsbereich III – Teilprojekt III.1 (Reallabor IB3 TP III.1)
    Sub-project III.1 focuses on the development of a structural health monitoring concept for the continuous monitoring of the support structure, tower and rotor blades of offshore wind turbines. This is done by comprehensively analysing vibration and SCADA data. The project is also trialling population-based SHM approaches to develop minimum sensor concepts for the entire wind farm. The aim is to identify relevant operating states and system parameters as well as critical damage scenarios in order to extend the service life of a wind farm.
