Journal ArticleDOI
Large-area photogrammetry based testing of wind turbine blades
Peyman Poozesh,Javad Baqersad,Christopher Niezrecki,Peter Avitabile,Eric Harvey,Rahul Yarala +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of conventional 3D DIC and 3D point tracking (3DPT) approaches over the surface of wind turbine blades was evaluated using dynamic spatial data stitching.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Full Field Strain Distributions to Predicted Strain Distributions from Limited Sets of Measured Data for SHM Applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the expected full field stress-strain from the analytical model is compared to the predicted full field dynamic stress strain from limited sets of measured locations due to either operating or imposed loading on the structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulating the Manufacturing Process and Subsequent Structural Stiffness of Composite Wind Turbine Blades with and without Defects
Konstantine A. Fetfatsidis,Cynthia J. Mitchell,James A. Sherwood,Eric Harvey,Peter Avitabile +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is presented for simulating the manufacturing process for fabric-reinforced composite wind turbine blades using ABAQUS/Explicit, which captures the evolution of yarn directions during the forming process and allows for a map of the fiber orientations throughout the blade.
Book ChapterDOI
Dynamic Stress-Strain Prediction from Limited Measurements in the Presence of Structural Defects
TL;DR: In this paper, the interior dynamic response due to time-varying loads is not currently predictable from measured data, and conventional approaches for proper validation of full-scale exterior dynamic behavior of numerical models require a significant number of measurement points.
Book ChapterDOI
Developing a Finite Element Model in Conjunction with Modal Test for Wind Turbine Blade Models
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of the traditional composite ply modeling approach and the unit cell approach is studied to determine similarities and differences in the approaches, and a panel section is modeled and tested in various conditions followed by correlation and updating studies.
