Short summary
This research explores a method for repairing wind turbine blades made from carbon fiber while they remain installed, eliminating costly disassembly. It addresses the challenges of repairing damaged blades and proposes a practical solution to improve repair efficiency. Through structural analysis, we found that this approach can ensure safety during repairs, providing significant benefits to the wind energy industry.
