Numerical study of soil-structure interaction effects on the natural frequency of offshore wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yesNumerical Methods in Civil Engineering
Offshore wind turbines (OWT) are considered as one the most promising ways of harvesting green energies in the world. OWTs are dynamically sensitive as their loading frequency is close to their natural frequency, allowing a narrow band of frequency to ...

Forecasting long term jack up vessel demand for offshore wind [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Offshore wind deployment has greatly increased in the last decade. The number and size of installations have historically determined the requirement for jack up vessels, as installation was the only driver for heavy lift vessel requirement.
