Foundation damping and the dynamics of offshore wind turbine monopiles
The contribution of foundation damping to offshore wind turbines (OWTs) is not well known, though researchers have back-calculated foundation damping from “rotor-stop” tests after estimating aerodynamic, hydrodynamic, and structural damping with numerical models. Because design guidelines do not currently recommend methods for determining foundation damping, it is typically neglected. This pape...
متن کاملReliability analysis of monopile offshore wind turbine support structures
We probe the reliability of monopile support structures designed to support industrial scale turbines along the coastal United States using stochastic models for the wind and wave loadings, and representations of the uncertainty associated with soil properties. The turbine support structure investigated is that promulgated by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory as typical of a monopile sup...
متن کاملPreliminary Design of a Multi-Column TLP Foundation for a 5-MW Offshore Wind Turbine
Currently, floating wind turbines (FWTs) may be the more economical and suitable systems with which to exploit offshore wind energy in deep waters. Among the various types of floating foundations for offshore wind farms, a tension leg platform (TLP) foundation can provide a relatively stable platform for currently available offshore wind turbines without requiring major modifications. In this s...
متن کاملStudy on Load-Bearing Characteristics of a New Pile Group Foundation for an Offshore Wind Turbine
Because offshore wind turbines are high-rise structures, they transfer large horizontal loads and moments to their foundations. One of the keys to designing a foundation is determining the sensitivities and laws affecting its load-bearing capacity. In this study, this procedure was carried out for a new high-rise cap pile group foundation adapted to the loading characteristics of offshore wind ...
متن کاملNumerical and Experimental Modeling of Scour at Foundation Structures for Offshore Wind Turbines
There is presently a lack of knowledge of scour progression for complex offshore foundation structures, such as Tripod foundations for offshore wind turbines. Typically, scour is investigated in physical model tests. As an extension, parts of the investigations could be carried out by using numerical methods; however, such numerical methods require that all relevant processes leading to scour a...
