Turbulence consideration in wind turbine design and its effect on main shaft motion and blade root strain

This PhD research investigated the influence of turbulence effects on the vibration behaviour of wind turbines. A small laboratory scale wind turbine test facility was developed with special purpose instrumentation and sensors. Experimental investigations of the vibration behaviour of the turbine de...
