Digital twin (DT) is an emerging technology that enables sophisticated interaction between
physical objects and their virtual replicas. Although DT has recently gained significant …

The size of wind turbine blades is increasing rapidly, and they are being installed in remote
offshore locations. Consequently, it is essential to focus on improving the design and …

Lifetime prediction of a horizontal axis wind turbine composite blade is considered. Load
cases are identified, calculated and evaluated. Static analysis is performed with a full 3-D …

Wind turbines mounted on cold climate sites are subject to icing which could significantly
influence the performance of the turbine blades for harvesting wind energy. In this study, an …

The aim of this study was to evaluate experimentally rotation and turbulence effects on a
wind turbine blade aerodynamics, focusing particularly on stall mechanisms. The wind …

A comprehensive fatigue analysis framework for composite wind turbine blades has been
developed. It includes variable wind loads from wind field simulation and aerodynamic …

As a new type of inorganic green and high performance fiber material, basalt fiber has broad
application prospects in the field of offshore wind power. In order to promote the application …

This study aims to develop a fatigue life prediction method and to identify the effect that a 10-
minute mean wind speed distribution has on the fatigue life of a small-scale wind turbine …

Incident flows on wind turbines are often highly turbulent, because these devices operate in
the atmospheric boundary layer and often in the wake of other wind turbines. This article …

This paper details a formulation to create a fatigue loading procedure for the blade of a small
wind turbine using a combination of detailed short-term aeroelastic and wind measurements …
