Creating a Real‐Time Capable Surrogate Model of a Wind Turbine Using Machine Learning
ABSTRACT Multibody simulation (MBS) is an established method for modeling wind turbines for purposes such as load calculation. While capable of modeling wind turbines at high levels of detail, large MBS models can be computationally expensive. This makes deployment for real‐time critical use cases like digital twins difficult.

Assessment of the Distribution of the Gaps Between Ring Flange Connections in Offshore Wind Turbines
Abstract Ring flange connections are commonly used to connect the tower of offshore wind turbines with monopile foundations. Studs in these ring flange connections are sensitive to fatigue damage accumulation, which is aggravated by gaps between the flanges. Such gaps are inevitable because of imperfections (out‐of‐flatness) of the flanges.

Sensitivity Analysis of Monopiles’ Fatigue Stresses to Site Conditions Using Monte Carlo Simulation [PDF]
The design of support structures of offshore wind turbines contains high number of design variables that influence load characteristics and structural responses. These variables are stochastic and cause many uncertainties.

Cost Development and Cost Drivers in UK Offshore Wind Farms
ABSTRACT The offshore wind industry faces challenges of impairments, project abandonment, and no bids in auction rounds, following several years of cost increases and project delays. Both industry and government rely on cost reductions. Companies struggle with low business‐economic profitability, and taxpayers require a justification for government ...

The Effect of Lateral Loading Parameters on Monopile Behavior Based on Physical Modeling
Monopiles are the most common type of foundation for offshore wind turbines (OWT). Monopiles have been used in more than 80% of the offshore wind turbines.
