Effect of Second-Order Hydrodynamics on Floating Offshore Wind Turbines: Preprint [PDF]

, 2013
Offshore winds are generally stronger and more consistent than winds on land, making the offshore environment attractive for wind energy development. A large part of the offshore wind resource is however located in deep water, where floating turbines are

Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

Engaging the Complexities of Energy Transitions: Sociotechnical and Dualistic Insights From Crossdisciplinary Undergraduates

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Discourses of energy and energy transition have become increasingly prevalent in informal and formal learning spaces. Energy transitions differ across regions, contexts, and technologies. The contextual nature of energy is an opportunity for a sociotechnical approach to its study.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Mooring of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

, 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 ...

Renewable Resource Curse Hypothesis: Could Renewable Resources Foster Sustainable Development?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores whether the resource curse hypothesis applies to renewable energy by introducing a novel metric of renewable resource rent. Using a panel dataset of 46 countries (2010–2022), we define renewable rent as the product of electricity generation and the gap between industrial electricity price and levelized cost (LCOE).

Empirical Physics‐Based Normal Behavior Modeling of Drive Train Temperatures With High‐Resolution Wind Turbine Operating Data

Wind Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The installed wind energy capacity increases every year. However, operation and maintenance costs still make up a considerable portion of the levelized costs of electricity. This costs can be greatly reduced by the application of suitable early fault detection methods. The supervisory control and data acquisition system of wind turbines is one
