Short summary
This paper presents a method for designing control specifications based on mechanical fatigue. The method is validated by the design of controllers for a 15 MW reference wind turbine. The error in the fatigue estimation is smaller than 2 %, and the number of iterations during the controller design process has been significantly reduced.
