Advanced control systems as presented in this paper enable for a significant reduction of loads on single components and on the entire turbine construction. Consequently, lifetime extension can be achieved and the component design can be optimised with respect to the reduced loads.enBauteilBemessungdesignEnergieumwandlungenergy transformationfatigue loadingFestigkeitsbeurteilungKraftwerksbaupower plant constructionSchwingbeanspruchungstrength evaluationstructural componentstructureTragwerkwind loadingWindbeanspruchung620conference paper
