Summary

During recent years, wind energy, known as one of the clean and environmentally friendly renewable energy resources, has become more significant than ever before. Nevertheless, significant challenges remain in reducing the levelized cost of wind energy. Also, as wind moves offshore, with both fixed and floating options, the wind power generation system becomes complicated. There is further opportunity to use nascent technologies, such as AI. This special issue aims to include contributions across the spectrum of scientific and engineering disciplines concerned with the “AI application in Wind Energy Development and Utilization”. The special issue covers a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to:

• AI-based wind resource assessment techniques;

• AI assisted wind turbine designs;

• AI assisted wind turbine control, protection, state diagnostics;

• AI-based wind farm operation and maintenance;

• AI-based wind power plant modeling and performance optimization;

• AI-based wind energy utilization and integration.

    Abstract Blades are essential components of wind turbines. Reducing their fatigue loads during operation helps to extend their lifespan, but it is difficult to quickly and accurately calculate the fatigue loads of blades. To solve this problem, this paper innovatively designs a data-driven blade load modeling method based on a deep learning framework through mechanism analysis, feature selection, and model construction. In the mechanism analysis part, the generation mechanism of blade loads and the load theoretical calculation method based on material damage theory are analyzed, and four measurable operating state parameters related to blade loads are… More >
