More offshore wind projects are being developed. Shallow locations are more occupied and a tendency to deeper water and to larger wind turbines is seen. These create more bending moment which can be more easily resisted by jacket substructures. The state of the art installation p ...
The hybrid monopile is a substructure concept for offshore wind turbines initially designed and developed by Fistuca B.V. This Thesis is about the initial concept design of the connection details in the hybrid monopile. Several concept connections are designed. The best concept i ...
Wind turbines constitute a sustainable and effective solution for the production of energy using wind power. Offshore wind turbines are becoming of special interest. However, their design poses great challenges, since an offshore structure is subjected to combined wind and wave d ...

The Hybrid Monopile

Design of a novel foundation structure for large offshore wind turbines in intermediate water depths

In the 26 years since the first offshore wind farm was installed in Vindeby, Denmark, the offshore wind industry has undergone remarkable growth. Recently, this growth has accelerated, advancing farms rapidly into deeper water and utilizing larger turbines. As offshore wind far ...
