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
