Model test of an inverted conical cylinder floating offshore wind turbine moored by a spring-tensioned-leg

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014
A new 5-MW floating offshore wind turbine moored by a spring-tensioned-leg was proposed for installation in about 50m water depth. Its substructure is a platform of the inverted conical cylinder type with massive ballast weight plate at the bottom.

An Overview of High‐Temperature Superconducting Cables in DC Systems: Unlocking Potential for High‐Voltage DC Networks

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides an overview of high‐temperature superconducting (HTS) cables in DC systems, with a focus on their deployment in high‐voltage DC (HVDC) networks. The assessment of HTS cable properties—such as extremely low electrical resistance, high current‐carrying capacity and a compact geometry—and their comparison with those of ...

Mooring of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yes, 2021
Målet med denne oppgaven var å undersøke hvilke instanser som er ansvarlige for å regulere offshore vind i Norge. Deretter forklarer oppgaven hvilke design for fortøyningssystemene som er tilgjengelige for flytende vindmøller i Norge. Til slutt foreslår oppgaven modifikasjoner som kan gjøres på ankerhåndteringsfartøyene til Solstad Offshore for at de ...

Feasibility of offshore wind in Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There is no offshore wind industry in Australia at present; however, offshore wind could have great potential. There is no published discussion of the economics of offshore wind on a national scale in Australia, so this paper offers analysis which may ...

Movement Responses of Seals During Pile Driving for Offshore Wind Farm Construction

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Despite rapid growth of the renewable energy industry to meet climate change targets, predictions of population‐level impacts on wildlife are currently hindered by a limited understanding of individual behavioural responses to these developments.

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

High Strength Steel Fatigue Crack Growth Database for Offshore Renewable Energy Applications

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High strength steels can reduce costs and carbon emissions in offshore renewable energy, but their effect on structural integrity remains unclear. In welded structures, such as support structures for offshore wind and tidal turbines, fatigue life is dominated by crack growth from flaws at weld toes.
