**3. Results**

In this section, we summarise the process for establishing effective rules and present the key results obtained from the data analysis (omitting the results from the extensive trial analysis). The process follows the methods introduced in Sections 4.3 and 4.4, while the flows and methods for the experimental conditions, data collection, data preprocessing and data curation processes are detailed in Sections 4.1 and 4.2.

#### *3.1. Source Datasets and Visualisation*

After the collected datasets were preprocessed and curated, the first phase involved visualising the source time-domain datasets, so that observations could be made in order to perform some initial comparisons. For this purpose, the datasets of the vibration data updated on the server-side CMS were sampled and rendered for 3.0-blade (full blades), 2.5-blade, and 2.0-blade wind turbine settings. In Appendix C, a full coverage for these is shown in Figure A1, A2 and A3, respectively. For space reasons, only several subfigures are preserved here in Figures 2–4 as example cases, which are plotted for the data being recorded along the X, Y and Z axes subject to the 'no wind imposed' setting.
