Demonstration of methods and tools for the optimisation of operational reliability of large-scale industrial wind turbines (OPTIMUS)
Start date: Aug 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2016,
The power output from wind turbines has increased dramatically over the past thirty years from 50 kW to 6 MW, while 8-12 MW turbines are in the stage of design. State-of-the-art condition monitoring systems, such as vibration-based systems and temperature sensors, are able to monitor and evaluate the current condition of components of interest. Nonetheless, varying wind loads can result in the gen ...

Development of a Novel Integrated Inspection System for the Accurate Evaluation of the Structural Integrity of Rail Tracks (INTERAIL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
"The European rail industry is showing signs of steady recovery after a long period of decline. The technological advances in train design have led to the manufacturing of faster, greener and more comfortable trains making rail transport a more attractive option for passengers in comparison with other means of transportation. The ever growing need for the society to employ more environmentally fri ...

Development and Demonstration of a Novel Integrated Condition Monitoring System for Wind Turbines (NIMO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Wind energy is the most developed of a number of renewable energy technologies, with several thousands of wind turbines already operating or being planned for construction across Europe. Wind turbines can be deployed individually to power a single site or installation, but are most commonly grouped together as wind farms to provide power to the electricity grid. The energy output from wind turbine ...
