RISASME Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering—An Editorial
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Alternative Mooring Systems for a Very Large Offshore Wind Turbine Supported by a Semisubmersible Floating Platform
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As offshore wind turbines supported on floating platforms extend to deep waters, the various effects involved in the dynamics, especially those resulting from the influence of moorings, become significant when predicting ...
Simulation of Wind, Waves, and Currents During Hurricane Sandy for Planned Assessment of Offshore Wind Turbines
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The simulation of wind and wave fields for the evaluation of jacket-supported offshore wind turbines during Hurricane Sandy of 2012 is the focus of this study. For realistic load assessment of offshore wind turbines, it ...
Loads on a Jacket-Supported Wind Turbine During Hurricane Sandy Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The dynamic response of a jacket-supported offshore wind turbine under coupled wind, wave, and current fields during Hurricane Sandy is the subject of this study. To illustrate the detailed procedure related to the response ...
Weather Window Analysis in Operations and Maintenance Policies for Offshore Floating Multi-Purpose Platforms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In an emerging “blue economy,” the use of large multi-purpose floating platforms in the open ocean is being considered. Such platforms could possibly support a diversified range of commercial activities including energy ...
Response Mitigation of Floating Platform by Porous-Media-Tuned Liquid Dampers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A porous-media-tuned liquid damper (PMTLD) can serve as an effective and economical dynamic vibration absorber. Placing porous media within a water tank can improve the capacity for energy dissipation and optimize the ...
On the Use of Site Data to Define Extreme Turbulence Conditions for Wind Turbine Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In wind turbine design, external conditions to be considered depend on the intended site for the planned installation. Wind turbine classes, defined in terms of wind speed and turbulence parameters, cover most sites and ...
Simulation of Thunderstorm Downbursts and Associated Wind Turbine Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study is focused on simulation of thunderstorm downbursts and associated wind turbine loads. We first present a thunderstorm downburst model, in which the wind field is assumed to result from the summation of an ...
On the Development of an Efficient Surrogate Model for Predicting Long-Term Extreme Loads on a Wave Energy Converter
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate prediction of long-term extreme loads is essential for the design of wave energy converters (WECs), but it is also computationally demanding due to the low probabilities associated with their occurrence. Although ...
Assessing Fatigue Damage in the Reuse of a Decommissioned Offshore Jacket Platform to Support a Wind Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An offshore energy transition, even if only a gradual one, from carbon-emitting fossil fuel extraction to cleaner sources is recommended, if we are to slow the harmful impacts of climate change. The potential for sustainable ...
