RESUMO:

Wind energy is one of the most important power sources in supplying world energy consumption nowadays. The transition to a clean-based energy consumption has created the demand for wind turbines (WTs) of extremely large dimensions, with very flexible design. In this context, the structural analysis and control of WTs has a fundamental role in the mitigation of loads and increasing the fatigue life of the structure. Significant research has been devoted to the issues of aeroelastic loads, simulation software, structural control and load reductions of WTs. This thesis is included in this field of research, contributing with developments in the structural analysis and in the state-space control, H-infinity control, and model predictive control (MPC) applied to the WTs. Therefore, the thesis presents two main pathways: (1) the development of a proprietary tool for the structural analysis of wind turbines, based on finite-element procedures and (2) the development and application of control strategies to reduce WT structural loads and the results of them in terms of WT lifetime, based on turbulent simulations.
