Short summary
Offshore wind turbines are beginning to reach their design lifetimes. Hence, lifetime extensions are becoming relevant. To make well-founded decisions on possible lifetime extensions, fatigue damage predictions are required. Measurement-based assessments instead of simulation-based analyses have rarely been conducted so far, since data are limited. Therefore, this work focuses on the temporal extrapolation of measurement data. It is shown that fatigue damage can be extrapolated accurately.
