ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can

A New p–y Curve for Laterally Loaded Large-Diameter Monopiles in Soft Clays
In harsh offshore environmental conditions, the monopile foundations supporting offshore wind turbines must be designed for lateral loads such as winds, waves, and currents.

Field Performance of Scour Protection around Offshore Monopiles [PDF]
Offshore Windpark Egmond aan Zee was installed in 2006 and is the first Dutch offshore windpark. To guarantee a fixed seabed level, dynamic scour protections were installed at all 36 monopiles. Since installation 251 multibeam surveys were executed to investigate the as-built stages and yearly performance of the dynamic scour protection.

ABSTRACT This study analyzes cost overruns in 80 wind power projects, focusing on the impact of configuration types and their interaction effects with other project characteristics. Using multiple regression analyses, including interaction terms and segmented regression, we investigate four key aspects of cost overruns in wind power projects. First, we

Small-displacement behavior of offshore wind power monopiles subjected to static lateral loading
The centrifuge tests and numerical simulations are carried out to explore the small-displacement behavior of 9 m-diameter offshore wind power large-scale monopiles with various embedment depths. The results show that as the embedment depth increases, the

ABSTRACT Conventional steel towers face challenges such as insufficient stiffness and structural instability, making them increasingly unsuitable for supporting large multi‐megawatt wind turbines. This study investigates the dynamic performance of concrete‐filled double‐skin steel tubular (CFDST) wind turbine towers as a novel structural member ...

Prediction of the Behaviour of Monopiles Under Drained Two‐Way Cyclic Lateral Loading in Sand
ABSTRACT The monopile is considered as one of the preferred geotechnical foundations for the offshore wind energy converter; therefore, its cyclic behaviour is one of the major concerns in the design. In the current design approaches, the prediction of two‐way cyclic behaviour mainly depends on empirical equations, in which the specific site conditions

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.
