Multi Point Sensing and Defect Detection of Wind Turbine Blades: An Approach Using Fibre Bragg Gratings (2025)
Thesis
Sihivahana Sarma, A. (2025). Multi Point Sensing and Defect Detection of Wind Turbine Blades: An Approach Using Fibre Bragg Gratings. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5126324

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of Wind Turbine Blades (WTBs) plays a critical role in ensuring safe and cost-effective operations of these complex structures. However, detecting manufacturing-induced defects and operation-induced damages poses si...

Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery (2024)
Thesis
Shariq, M. H. Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4860398

Buildings account for 40% of overall carbon emissions in the UK which have significant impacts on the environment. The overconsumption of energy for heating and cooling is primarily caused by thermal leakages due to building defects. Existing techniq...

Fault-tolerant load reduction control for large offshore wind turbines (2019)
Thesis
Liu, Y. Fault-tolerant load reduction control for large offshore wind turbines. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4270015

Offshore wind turbines suffer from asymmetrical loading (blades, tower etc.), leading to enhanced structural fatigue. As well as asymmetrical loading different types of faults (pitch system faults etc.) can occur simultaneously, causing degradation o...
