A wind
turbine blade (20) that extends longitudinally in a spanwise direction between a root end (24) and a tip end (26), and in a chordwise direction between a
leading edge (28) and a
trailing edge (30), is disclosed. The wind
turbine blade (20) includes a first opposing half-shell portion (34) and a second opposing half-shell portion (36) which together define an interior (38) the wind
turbine blade (20), and at least one shear web (52) that extends between the first opposing half-shell portion (34) and the second opposing half-shell portion (36). The wind
turbine blade (20) further includes at least one vibration damping device (60, 90, 122, 124, 126, 128, 132, 204, 224, 230, 250) for reducing
noise emission from the wind
turbine blade (20). The at least one vibration damping device (60, 90, 122, 124, 126, 128, 132, 204, 224, 230, 250) includes at least one resonating member (62, 138, 202, 232, 260) that extends from a surface of the wind
turbine blade (20) to a distal end (70, 96, 156, 186, 206, 234, 262) that is configured to oscillate to dissipate
vibrational energy away from the surface of the wind turbine blade (20).
