**Job Description**
This PhD project aims to develop an advanced condition monitoring system for critical drivetrain components of offshore wind turbines. The system will utilize contactless sensors and operational modal analysis, integrated with advanced data processing and decision support, to identify and monitor system properties in near real-time. The project outcomes will enable continuous monitoring of wind turbine health and estimation of remaining useful life (RUL), benefiting from close collaboration with industrial partners.
