This paper presents a damage identification method for offshore jacket platforms using partially measured modal results and based on artificial intelligence neural networks. Damage identification indices are first proposed ...

Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a popular construction material combining good structural properties and environmental advantages. In the last decade, CLT has been playing a key role in increasing the use of timber ...

The rain-induced fatigue damage in the wind turbine blade coating has attracted increasing attention owing to significant repair and maintenance costs. The present paper develops an improved computational framework for ...

In order to lower mooring costs, this master's thesis examines the technical and economic feasibility of a shared mooring system for a dual-spar Floating Offshore Wind Farm (FOWF) in the North Sea area. The suggested ...

Installation of floating wind turbines at the offshore site is a challenging task. A significant part of the time efficiency and costs are related to the installation methods which are sensitive to weather conditions. This ...

Structural health monitoring plays a key role for maintenance and lifetime extension of bridges under complex loading conditions and damage scenarios. This paper applies vibration-based methods to monitor the structural ...

The presence of rain-induced leading edge erosion of wind turbine blades necessitates the development of erosion models. One of the essential parameters for erosion modelling is the relative impact velocity between rain ...

Environmental contour method is an efficient method for predicting the long-term extreme response of offshore structures. The traditional environmental contour is obtained using the joint distribution of mean wind speed, ...
