Empirical Physics‐Based Normal Behavior Modeling of Drive Train Temperatures With High‐Resolution Wind Turbine Operating Data

Wind Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The installed wind energy capacity increases every year. However, operation and maintenance costs still make up a considerable portion of the levelized costs of electricity. This costs can be greatly reduced by the application of suitable early fault detection methods. The supervisory control and data acquisition system of wind turbines is one

Field‐Data‐Based Wind Turbine Reliability Modelling: Quantifying Effects of Operating Age, Design and Technological Development

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT As wind energy continues to expand, ensuring the reliability of wind turbines is critical for optimising operational efficiency and minimising downtime. Based on maintenance data from over 1,000 onshore and offshore wind turbines covering more than 4200 operating years, this study presents an analysis of wind turbine failure behaviour over ...

Feasibility of Hydrostatic Transmission in Community Wind Turbines

Actuators, 2023
This study investigates the potential improvement of a community wind turbine through replacing the conventional drivetrain with a hydrostatic transmission (HST). Conventional wind turbines use a fixed-ratio gearbox, a variable-speed induction generator,

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)

On Cointegration Analysis for Condition Monitoring and Fault Detection of Wind Turbines Using SCADA Data

Energies, 2023
Cointegration theory has been recently proposed for condition monitoring and fault detection of wind turbines. However, the existing cointegration-based methods and results presented in the literature are limited and not encouraging enough for the ...

Effects of Carbon Nanoparticles on Triboelectro‐Induced Surface Defects

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
Carbon nanoparticles added to grease modify the electrocontact behavior. The synergy of particle concentration and electric current dominates the surface damage of metals in contact. Electrical surface damage caused by current leakage is a critical challenge in high‐performance applications such as electric vehicle (EV) drivetrains and wind turbine ...

Using Multiple Regression Models and Methods to Estimate Fatigue‐Life Distributions and Construct Constant‐Life Diagrams

Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, Volume 42, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fatigue is the most common reliability failure mechanism and has been studied widely since the 19th century. Material specimens are used in laboratory experiments to obtain fatigue test data. An S‐N curve is used to depict the relationship between the stress (or strain) S$$ S $$ and the number of cycles to failure N$$ N $$. Statistical methods
