Which boundary-layer effect increases when wind turbine load fluctuations cause onset of substantial turbulence?

💡 Explanation

Increased turbulence enhances unsteady loading and vibration via vortex shedding; fatigue worsens because cyclic stresses accumulate, therefore leading to structural weaknesses rather than improved aerodynamic efficiency because turbulence disrupts airflow and increases drag.
