Strain Monitoring of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Tower Using Fiber Bragg Gratings

This article presents the findings of an experimental study conducted on a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) tower instrumented with cascaded fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors to detect bending deformations. Structural health monitoring (SHM) is an essential need in the industry to reduce costs and...
