A full three‐dimensional model for the estimation of the natural frequencies of an offshore wind turbine in sand

open access: yesWind Energy, 2021
The design of an offshore wind turbine (OWT) founded on a monopile foundation is principally based on dimensioning criteria related to its fundamental frequencies. These frequencies must remain outside the excitation frequencies to avoid resonance.
