The Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) for modal parameter extraction from operating wind turbines
TL;DR: The Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) is a method of modal testing that allows structures to be tested in their ambient environments as mentioned in this paper, and has been used extensively in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Inception of OMA in the Development of Modal Testing Technology for Wind Turbines
Thomas G. Carne,George H. James +1 more
TL;DR: The Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) as mentioned in this paper was developed to overcome these challenges of testing immense structures excited with environmental inputs, and has been used extensively in the field of wind turbine modal testing.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The effects of finite element grid density on model correlation and damage detection of a bridge
TL;DR: In model refinement 3 it is found that a large model with a fine grid is preferable in order to achieve a reasonable correlation between the experimental response and the finite element model.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Health monitoring of operational structures -- Initial results
TL;DR: Two techniques for damage localization (Structural Translational and Rotational Error Checking -- STRECH and MAtriX COmpletioN -- MAXCON) are described and applied to operational structures as discussed by the authors.
Book ChapterDOI
Structural Dynamic Behavior of Wind Turbines
TL;DR: In this paper, the structural dynamicist's areas of responsibility require interaction with most other members of the wind turbine project team to predict structural loads and deflections that will occur over the lifetime of the machine, ensure favorable dynamic responses through appropriate design and operational procedures, evaluate potential design improvements for their impact on dynamic loads and stability, and correlate load and control test data with design predictions.
