Abstract:
As the number of offshore wind turbines continues to rise and their proximity to navigational routes decreases, the risk of collisions between passing vessels and wind turbines increases, thereby presenting serious threats to the safety of personnel and equipment. Given that collisions between floating wind turbines and vessels entail a complex interplay of wind, wave, and mooring loads, this study established a bidirectional fluid-structure coupling simulation methodology based on Star-CCM+ and ABAQUS. Under the combined influences of wind, wave, and mooring loads, the study investigated the

Abstract:
This article discusses the functioning of floating wind turbines. The engineering requirements for the design of floating offshore wind turbines are extensive. Wind turbine design tools usually consist of an aerodynamic model (for flow around the blades) coupled with a structural code. Aero-elastic models used in the design of fixed turbines calculate all the necessary loading parameters, from turbine thrust and power generation, to blade and tower deflections. The design of floating structures usually involves hydrodynamics tools such as WAMIT Inc.’s software for studying wave interactions wi

Abstract:
Classical flutter of wind turbine blades is one of the most destructive instability phenomena of wind turbines especially for several-MW-scale turbines. In the present work, flutter performance of the DTU 10-MW offshore wind turbine is investigated using a 907-degree-of-freedom aero-hydro-servo-elastic wind turbine model. This model involves the couplings between tower, blades and drivetrain vibrations. Furthermore, the three-dimensional aerodynamic effects on wind turbine blade tip have also been considered through the blade element momentum theory with Bak’s stall delay model and Shen’s tip

Grouted connections are structural joints formed by a cementitious grout cast between two concentric circular tubes. They are widely used in the offshore construction of oil and gas platforms, and for offshore wind turbines (monopiles and jackets).

Recently, it was found that grouted connections show limited performance in offshore wind turbine installations leading to settlements between the steel tubes and steel/grout debonding.

A linearization model is obtained for a three-bladed horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) consisting of blades and a drive-train. Sensitivity analysis of the degree of controllability (DOC) and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) efficiency with respect to the structural parameters of wind turbines is discussed by numerical simulations. It is observed from the simulation results that higher MPPT efficiency can be achieved with the increase of DOC. Based on the observation, this paper proposes a new integrated design method based on DOC to design and optimize the structural parameters of a HAWT.

In wind turbines, flow pressure variations on the air-structure interface cause aerodynamic forces. Consequently the structure deforms and starts to move. The interaction between aerodynamic forces and structural deformations mainly concerns aeroelasticity. Since these two are coupled, they have to be considered simultaneously in cases which the deformations are not negligible in comparison to the other geometric dimensions. The purpose of this work is to improve the simulation model of a vertical axis wind turbine by modifying the structural model from undamped Euler-Bernoulli beam theory wit

The power output from a wind turbine is proportional to rotor swept area and as a result in the past 30 years continuous effort has been made to design larger blades. In this period, the blade length has been increased about 10 times since 1980s to present time. With the longest blade currently measuring more than 100m in length, wind turbine blade designers and manufacturers face enormous challenges to encounter the effect of increased weight and other loads on fatigue durability of the blade.

Due to the increase of rotor size in horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) during the past 25 years in order to achieve higher power output, all wind turbine components and blades in particular, have to withstand higher structural loads. This upscalingproblem could be solved by applying technologies capable of reducing aerodynamic loads the rotor has to withstand, either with passive or active control solutions. These control devices and techniques can reduce the fatigue load upon the blades up to 40% and therefore less maintenance is needed, resulting in an important money savings for the wind

A major barrier to the acceptance of small wind turbines is that they are perceived to be noisy particularly when mounted on monopole towers rather than traditional guy-wired ones. This paper discusses an aspect of noise propagation that has not been studied previously: vibration of the tower. To start studying the tower’s behavior, twenty four accelerometers were attached in two orthogonal lines along the 10 m tower of Southwest Windpower Skystream 2.4 kW wind turbine located at the edge of the city of Calgary. About 15 minutes of data were recorded in order to extract natural frequencies and

Abstract:
Abstract Wind energy is currently the fastest growing electricity source. To meet the output demand, wind turbines are becoming larger and more flexible leading to the problems of structural load especially in case of offshore turbines. Advanced control algorithms are developed to reduce the load, allowing to build larger turbines, and expand their lifetime. Observer-based control algorithms such as Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian LQG control which uses LQR to calculate the optimal observer and controller gains are commonly applied to wind turbines in literature. However the approach requires to cal

Abstract:
Modeling of actual and hypothetical compressor station facilities concluded increasing reciprocating engine stack height as one potential mitigation measure to reduce modeled impacts below the primary 1-hour NO2 National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Increasing stack heights to between 50-75 feet appears to offer considerable relief based on typical facility configurations (e.g., compressor house height, stack parameters). This white paper discusses potential stack design criteria to be considered when increasing existing exhaust stack heights or planning considerations for new units.

Abstract:
There is much to learn from the recent New Zealand and Japan earthquakes. These earthquakes produced differing levels of liquefaction-induced ground movements that damaged buildings, bridges, and buried utilities. Along with the often spectacular observations of infrastructure damage, there were many cases where well-built facilities located in areas of liquefaction-induced ground failure were not damaged. Researchers are working on characterizing and learning from these observations of both poor and good performance. The “Liquefaction-Induced Ground Movements Effects” workshop provided an opp
