Microwave Structural Health Monitoring of the Grouted Connection of a Monopile-Based Offshore Wind Turbine: Fatigue Testing Using a Scaled Laboratory Demonstrator

<div>Grouted connection after 72,000 cycles of the fatigue test with one arrow indicating the 180° position with visible damage. The finite element analysis predicted one of the regions with the highest stress in this region (see red colored area in Figure <a href="../fig2/#b">2(b)</a>).</div>
