In this study, a method for the estimation of the response of wind turbine support structures is proposed by using measured wind speed. Following results were obtained. By introducing a new model for turbulence intensity, the prediction accuracy of the wind response of the wind turbine support structures at low wind speed increased. A method to combine the measured wind speed with the wind speed generation was proposed and applied for the estimation of response of the wind turbine support structures. The results show that when measured wind speed is used, better agreement with the measurement is observed.
