Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

Characterization of Multimodality in Wind Farm Layout Optimization

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The phenomena of multiple optima in wind farm layout optimization (WFLO) problems is investigated. The choice of optimization algorithm and cost of solving WFLO problems is driven by the degree of local optimality in the design space; however little work has attempted to characterize this.
