A Quantitative Study on the Void Defects Evolving into Damage in Wind Turbine Blade Based on Internal Energy Storage

Applied Sciences, 2020
As manufacturing defects, voids in wind turbine blades may cause damage under fatigue loads. In this paper, the internal energy storage is used as an indicator to identify the critical moment when a defect evolves into damage.
