Sensitivity analysis of design parameters for reliability assessment of offshore wind turbine jacket support structures

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2022
Offshore Wind Turbine (OWT) support structures are subjected to hostile environments, defined by highly stochastic loads and complex soil-structure interaction, and thus the need for a probabilistic approach towards design.

Simplified Calculation Method for the Natural Frequencies of the Offshore Wind Turbine Structures with Monopile Foundations Based on Euler–Bernoulli Beam Theory

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2023
The wind and wave loads on the offshore wind-turbine (OWT) structures with monopile foundations occur at specific frequencies. When these excitation frequencies are close to the natural frequencies of OWT structures, resonance can disturb the proper ...
