Abstract：To achieve real-time monitoring and safety assessment of the operating status of steel-concrete towers for onshore wind turbines,an intelligent monitoring method integrating multiple physical quantity measurements is proposed.By installing sensors for strain,vibration,inclination,cable tension,and opening degree,a complete state monitoring system for the steel-concrete tower is constructed.Corresponding early warning and health diagnosis mechanisms are established,and the effectiveness and accuracy of the monitoring scheme are verified by combining on-site measured data with numerical simulation results.The results show that the system can promptly identify potential safety hazards such as tower tube structural damage,inclination,and resonance,providing technical support for the safe operation of steel-concrete towers.Through real-time identification and early warning of potential faults,the system effectively reduces unplanned shutdowns and improves the operational efficiency of the wind turbines,thereby enhancing the overall energy-saving benefits of the wind farm.
