Abstract
Due to the existing trend of placing wind turbines in impassable terrain, for example, offshore, these structures constitute prime candidates for being subjected
to structural health monitoring (SHM). The wind turbine blades have in particular
been paid research attention [1] as these compose one of the most common
and critical components to fail in the turbines [2]. The standard structural integrity
assessment of blades is based on visual inspection, which requires the turbine
in question to be stopped while inspections are conducted. This procedure is
extremely costly and tedious, hence emphasizing the benefits of developing and
integrating a reliable, remote monitoring method for detecting, localizing, and assessingpotential structural deterioration.
