Identification of Damage in a Wind Turbine Blade Using Mechanical Measurements and Artificial Neural Networks
Journal Title: Journal of Data Science and Intelligent Systems - Year 2024, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Due to the stochastic nature of environmental loadings, a lot of interest is paid in the discovery of possible damages to the involved equipment in modern industry. In wind turbines' blades, the development of a smart structural health monitoring system is essential. In this paper, a large-scale composite wind turbine blade model is designed and used for the detection of several damage scenarios. The process is mainly based on the development of monitoring techniques that exploit the capabilities of artificial neural networks. These techniques can provide the exact position of possible damages, under given external loading scenarios. Moreover, the use -of such methods decreases significantly the need for external intervention and at the same time it increases the accuracy of the whole approach. The above processes are simulated using the finite element method. The goal is to develop a neural network that realizes the correlation of measurements with damage patterns. The goal is focused on the solution of inverse problems involving elastically deformable structures, based on remote mechanical measurements. The correlation between measurements and damages, which is much more complicated in comparison to image analysis, is studied by means of neural networks.
