STOCHOS: Stochastic opportunistic maintenance scheduling for offshore wind farms
IISE Transactions, 2023 Despite the promising outlook, the numerous economic and environmental benefits of offshore wind energy are still compromised by its high operations and maintenance (O&M) expenditures. On one hand, offshore-specific challenges such as site remoteness, harsh weather, transportation requirements, and production losses, significantly inflate the O&
