Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for detecting fiber misalignment in an elongated structure, such as a wind turbine blade component. The elongated structure has a length along a longitudinal direction and comprises a plurality of stacked layers of reinforcing fibers. The plurality of fibrous layers includes fibers having an orientation that is substantially unidirectionally aligned in a longitudinal direction. The method includes scanning the elongated structure along at least a portion of the length by emitting an x-ray beam at an angle compared to the orientation of the fibers. The method includes detecting scattered radiation and determining an intensity of the detected scattered radiation. The method includes estimating a magnitude of the fiber misalignment based on the determined intensity.
