Weiler, Marnix (author)During ‘float-out’ installation of export cables, the cable is pulled to shore while floating, supported by inflatable floaters. Understanding the hydrodynamic behaviour of these cable-floater-systems (CFS’s) is important, to be able to relate the hydraulic environment to the cable stresses and determine the maximum allowed hydraulic conditions...master thesis 2023

de Jong, Olivier (author)In contrast to traditional power cables for bottom-founded offshore wind turbines, power cables for floating wind turbines penetrate the water column and are exposed to cyclic loading. Due to the dynamic nature of the cable loading, the cables are prone to fatigue failure. Since the evaluation of the fatigue life of complex structures, like...master thesis 2022

Jonoski, Ilin (author)Over the last decade, the demand for offshore power cables has increased significantly due to, in particularly, the emergence of offshore wind. Despite this growth, industry-wide rules and guidelines to analyse fatigue during cable installation operations are yet to be developed, even though fatigue can become an important...master thesis 2020

Bui, N.C. (author)The investigation into the dynamic behavior of a cable during installation was done with the aim of improving cable installation for safety, operational and commercial value. In order to increase the operational limit of the vessel during cable installation, the investigation into improvement systems was desired. The workability of a vessel...master thesis 2016
