2 Normalized spectrum [db] Turbine blade materials The Turbine Drive train dynamics Rotor wind-field interaction Fault detection Hz Hz MODEL RIG 150 Hz Hz 212 Hz Hz Hz Hz -25 Middelgrunden wind farm photo by LM Glasfiber Hz 250 Hz 350 Hz Frequency [Hz] Subsea turbine foundations

3 Turbine blade materials The Turbine Basic materials 3D fabrics and joints Component testing Blade model

4 Materials considerations in blade design Labour, Material, Equipment Production rate Bending stiffness Cost Weight Selection of materials and manufacturing process design Maintenance and repair Reliable and cost-effective wind turbine blades Fatigue Resistance Manufacturing processes Environmental effects: UV, radar, Corrosions, Lightening

5 Novel materials: interlaminar toughness Selective interfacial reinforcement Veils Nano-additives Nano silica particles Through-thickness stitching and tufting Use of 3D fibre formats: braiding & weaving 3D Fabric

6 3D textile composites Why 3D Textiles? Current UD prepreg technology is excellent for thin flat structures But It is slow to lay up, difficult to work with complex 3D shapes, and struggles to allow load transfer in connections and across right angle shapes.

7 Strain Stitching: Digital Image Correlation Unstitched 400 cycles Unstitched 17,000 cycles Stitched 400 cycles Stitched 17,000 cycles Mean strain on stitched line Mean strain between two stitched lines Mean strain of stitched sample Mean strain of unstitched sample (a) (b) (c) (d) Log (N) Fig. Principal strain for samples. Arrows indicate the stitching lines. Fig. history of strain variations over stitched (line 1) and unstitched (line 2) areas Stitching generates high strain concentration areas along the sample. The strains on stitching line are much higher than unstitched area. The strains on stitching line are increasing gradually while the fatigue test is ongoing. However, the average strains of the stitched sample exhibit almost same values as that of the unstitched sample during the fatigue test. Slide No.7
