title = "Rotor blade online monitoring and fault diagnosis technology research",
abstract = "Rotor blade online monitoring and fault diagnosis technology is an important way to find blade failure mechanisms and thereby improve the blade design. Condition monitoring of rotor blades is necessary in order to ensure the safe operation of the wind turbine, make the maintenance more economical, and accumulate data for evaluation of the blade design. In this report the implementation of condition monitoring methods is described focusing on the kind of sensors that have to be mounted on the blades in order to detect different changes to the blades. These changes are damage progression, unbalancing of the rotor, icing and lightning. Research is done throughout the world in order to develop and improve such measurement systems. Commercial hardware and software available for the described purpose is presented in the report.",
