The Large Scale Facility at DTU Risø Campus provide research projects and companies with possibilities to perform tests at very large scale.

The facility consists of a 1560 square metre test hall with three test stands capable of testing 45 m, 25 m and 15 m blades or other slender structures.

 

Measuring equipment

The facility has many possibilities to do advanced measurements and data acquisition. These are among other things:

  • 3D full-field displacements with digital image correlation systems
  • Strain gauges (quarter, half and full bridge) and Fiber Bragg Grating sensors
  • Displacements with LVDT and ASM
  • Scanning laser Doppler vibrometer for vibrations and modal analysis
  • High-speed cameras, video, thermal imaging camera
  • Failure and cracks can be studied with Acoustic Emission, ultrasound scanning and X-ray imaging
