OPTIMAL DESIGN OF JACKET SUPPORTING STRUCTURES FOR OFFSHORE WIND TURBINES USING ENHANCED COLLIDING BODIES OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM
Structural optimization of offshore wind turbine structures has become an important issue in the past years due to the noticeable developments in offshore wind industry. However, considering the offshore wind turbines’ size and environment, this task is outstandingly difficult. To overcome this barrier, in this paper, a metaheuristic algorithm called Enhanced Colliding Bodies Optimization...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of Jacket Substructures for Offshore Wind Turbines
This study focused on investigating various existing types of offshore jacket substructures along with a proposed twisted-tripod jacket type (modified jacket (MJ)-structures). The architectures of the three-leg structure, as well as the patented twisted jacket structure motivated the design of the proposed MJ-structures. The dimensions of the structures were designed iteratively using static st...
متن کاملFEM Updating for Offshore Jacket Structures Using Measured Incomplete Modal Data
Marine industry requires continued development of new technologies in order to produce oil. An essential requirement in design is to be able to compare experimental data from prototype structures with predicted information from a corresponding analytical finite element model. In this study, structural model updating may be defined as the fit of an existing analytical model in the light of measu...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of Launching Offshore Jackets from Transportation Barge & the Significance of Water Entry Forces on Horizontal Jacket Members
Development of a numerical model which describes launching of offshore jackets from barge is presented in this paper. In this model, in addition to capabilities of commercial softwares, water entry forces on jacket members and an implicit Newmark solution technique are included. The results are in general agreement with other numerical software’s available (SACS). Fluid forces acting on jacket ...
متن کاملDesign of support structures for offshore wind turbines
Offshore wind is the logical next step in the development of wind energy. With higher wind speeds offshore and the fact that turbines can be placed out of sight, offshore wind helps increase the amount of renewable energy signifi cantly. Offshore wind has been developed through pilot projects in the 1990s and has seen commercial development over the last decade. This chapter shows the developme...
