Laboratory experiments

This section presents open-access datasets from experimental investigations conducted under controlled laboratory conditions. The datasets include both small-scale experiments, such as tests on steel cantilever beams, and large-scale investigations involving concrete towers and wind turbine rotor blades. They support the analysis of structural behavior, the validation of numerical models, and the development and evaluation of new methods in the field of structural health monitoring.
