Structural Health Monitoring for Assessment and Lifetime Extension of Wind Farms provides, for the first time, a comprehensive guide to recent efforts on the extension of lifetime of wind turbines, including reliability and safety assessment methods, recent condition assessment methods, estimates of remaining useful life, and standardization. While making accurate and reliable decisions on lifetime extension of wind farms is becoming an important issue in the wind energy sector, there are limited resources on this topic. Lifetime extension requires an accurate assessment of the turbine’s current condition and an estimation of the so-called remaining useful lifetime. In this context, the digitalization of the turbine system components plays a critical role in ensuring this goal, as it provides the means for monitoring of structural integrity based on data collected by vibration-based sensing systems and SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition). These methods can be used to detect potential defects in wind turbine components such as cracks, delamination etc. at early stages. The book is organized into four themes, covering numerical modelling and digital twinning, structural health monitoring methods, fatigue life evaluation of turbine components, and decision-making for life extension. This latest volume in the Elsevier Wind Energy Engineering Series is of interest to researchers, academics, graduate students, and industry professionals working in the broad field of wind energy, from research to operations, and with an interest in structural health monitoring and the lifetime extension of wind power production infrastructure.Covers the increasingly important topic of structural health monitoring of wind turbinesOffers a thorough exploration of the lifetime extension of wind turbinesDetails reliability and safety assessment methods, condition assessment methods, estimation of the remaining useful life, and standardization
