de Voogd, Rein (author)Monopiles with large diameter (larger than 6 m) and low aspect ratio (less than 6) are increasingly used in offshore wind farms. These foundations demonstrate a rigid response under lateral loading. The validity of the existing design methods, that are based on small diameter flexible piles, has been questioned by both the industry and...master thesis 2022

Modal analysis of bottom founded offshore wind structures via the creation of a finite element modelDescourtieux, Emeric (author)One way to implement a wind turbine in the sea is to use lattice structures. Since these structures are placed offshore, they must be able to withstand all kinds of loads. It is essential that the eigenfrequencies of the support structure do not correspond to the passing frequencies of the blades and any other dynamic actions. To avoid this the...master thesis 2018
