A computational framework for coating fatigue analysis of wind turbine blades due to rain erosion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)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 ... -
Integrated dynamic analysis of a spar floating wind turbine with a hydraulic drivetrain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Load mitigation method for wind turbines during emergency shutdowns
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Wind turbines experience countless shutdowns during their lifetimes. A shutdown is a transient process characterised by a pitch-to-feather manoeuvre of three blades. Such a pitch manoeuvre is often collective, open-loop, ... -

Metocean conditions at two Norwegian sites for development of offshore wind farms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This paper examines metocean data from NORA3, a state-of-the-art wind and wave hindcast dataset for Northern Europe. Two offshore Norwegian areas, Utsira Nord (UN) and Sørlige Nordsjø II (SN2), are investigated. Both areas ... -
Numerical and analytical analysis of a monopile-supported offshore wind turbine under ship impacts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020) -
A probabilistic rainfall model to estimate the leading-edge lifetime of wind turbine blade coating system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Rain-induced leading-edge erosion of wind turbine blades is associated with high repair and maintenance costs. For efficient operation and maintenance, erosion models are required that provide estimates of blade coating ...
