Abstract
This chapter is divided into three parts; the problem, possible solutions and the chosen option to address the problem, which is my PhD topic within the project MAREWINT. So firstly, the chapter presents an overview of the typical damages that a wind turbine blade can suffer during its life operation. Then, a review of different Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques which are currently being investigated for wind turbine blades is presented. Finally, the chapter provides the state-of-the-art of Guided Wave Technology in composite materials; where different aspects of this SHM technique are explained in more detail.
