Periodic Reporting for period 1 - WINDMIL RT-DT (An autonomous Real-Time Decision Tree framework for monitoring and diagnostics on wind turbines)
Reporting period: 2018-11-01 to 2020-07-31
This is business-critical information for energy companies and wind farm owners and operators. The platform consists of a software-hardware solution, implementing various structural health monitoring algorithms, machine learning models and frameworks for detecting faults, errors, damage patterns, anomalies and abnormal operation. Once trained on the linked data, our platform seamlessly facilitates the process of deploying (serving) these algorithms for monitoring on live-streamed data. The platform can serve as a decision-support tool for wind turbine manufacturers, wind farm Operators, service companies and insurers. WINDMIL RTDT establishes a technology proof of concept for an easy to deploy and easy to use web-based user-facing application for condition monitoring of wind turbines.
The algorithms included in the WINDMIL RTDT application correspond to four Analysis Categories, namely Deep Learning, System Identification, Modal Analysis and Probabilistic Machine Learning, with some of the algorithms already fully implemented, and some of the modules scheduled to be functional in a second version of the tool.
The detailed description, and further information on the overall structure and the different services enabled by the WINDMIL RTDT platform, can be found in this detailed final report:
