Description	New research on Energy - Wind Turbines is the subject of a report. According to news originating from Delft, Netherlands, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "In this paper, a new indicator to localize fatigue damage in a fibre glass composite structure, i.e. spar cap to shear web thick adhesive joint of a wind turbine blade, is presented. This indicator is based on the effect of damping on the phase of the mode shapes of the structure."
