Weibull‐Neural Network Framework for Wind Turbine Lifetime Monitoring and Disturbance Identification
Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Wind turbines are vital for sustainable energy, yet their reliability under diverse operational and environmental conditions remains a challenge, often leading to costly failures. This study presents a novel Weibull‐Neural Network Framework to enhance wind turbine lifetime monitoring by estimating reliability (R(t)) and mean residual life (MRL)
