Abstract: The article presents the results of numerical and experimental investigation of guided wave propagation...Read More
A joint work related to the AeroSense project has been accepted for publication in NDT and E International. Abstract: Ultra-wideband guided electromagnetic waves have been proposed recently for non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring applications. However, many possibilities are still unexplored given by the multitude of possible microwave waveguides. The present work introduces the concept...Read More
A joint work with several partners from the In-Situ-WIND project about microwave-based damage detection in grouted joints has been accepted for publication in Structural Control and Health Monitoring. Abstract: Offshore wind turbines play a significant role in the expansion of clean and renewable energy. However, their exposure to harsh marine environments and dynamic loading conditions...Read More
The dataset contains radar-based measurements of rotor blades from three operational wind turbines as part of a structural health monitoring system. For this purpose, a sensor box with a 35 GHz radar sensor (about 1 000 measurements per second) and a camera system (about 100 images per second), is mounted on each wind turbine tower...Read More
