Modal analysis of an operational offshore wind turbine using enhanced Kalman filter-based subspace identification

Operational modal analysis (OMA) is an essential tool for understanding the structural dynamics of offshore wind turbines (OWTs). However, the classical OMA algorithms require the excitation of the structure to be stationary white noise, which is often not the case for operational OWTs due to the presence of periodic excitation caused by...

Recursive nuclear norm based subspace identification

Nuclear norm based subspace identification methods have recently gained importance due to their ability to find low rank solutions while maintaining accuracy through convex optimization. However, their heavy computational burden typically precludes the use in an online, recursive manner, such as may be required for adaptive control. This...
