Offshore and marine renewable energy applications are governed by a number of
uncertainties relevant to the design process and operational management of assets. Risk …

In recent years, the offshore wind power industry has developed rapidly all over the world in
response to the gradual depletion of fossil fuel energy sources and concerns over …

The accurate prediction of extreme events based on measured data is an important task
because it can facilitate infrastructure reliability design, risk assessment, and disaster …

The fatigue limit state (FLS) often drives the design of offshore wind turbine (OWT)
substructures in European waters. Assessing fatigue damage over the intended design life …

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) must withstand harsh environmental loads over their 20-to 30-
year design life. Fragility analysis investigates the probability of damage over a range of …

At present, offshore wind turbine jacket structures are generally modeled with beam
elements. The local joint flexibility and stress concentration of the joints are hardly …

A wind turbine is a complex system used to convert the kinetic energy of the wind into
electrical energy. During the turbine design phase, a risk assessment is mandatory to …

The risk assessment of offshore wind turbines is increasingly significant due to the increase
in accidents. However, the life cycle risk assessment of suction bucket foundations is …

This paper presents a reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) method for a monopile
transition piece in an offshore wind turbine system. Two design approaches are investigated …

This paper studies the effect of structural dynamics on the response of an offshore wind
turbine (OWT) supported by a jacket and subjected to wave loads. The study includes a …
