Broersen, Tijn (author)The number of offshore wind farms is growing rapidly, which increases the likelihood of ship collisions with offshore wind turbines. Additionally, the cost of energy reduction for wind turbines is achieved due to radical design optimizations. Therefore, simple methods should be obtained to determine the offshore wind turbine response during ship...master thesis 2020

Blok, Sanne (author)Offshore wind turbines are commonly supported by monopile foundations. Impact hammering is the conventional method for installing offshore monopiles but has several disadvantages. Time-consuming installation procedures, high noise emissions and steel fatigue due to the high impact are problems resulting from this installation procedure. GBM...master thesis 2019

Misios, George (author)Wind turbines constitute a sustainable and effective solution to produce energy using wind power. Offshore wind turbines are becoming of special interest and more demanding with continuously increased diameters. However, their design poses great challenges, since the installation and fabrication tolerances in combination with high cyclic loading...master thesis 2019

Velarde, J. (author)Further advancements in the offshore wind industry, which come with the use of larger wind turbines at deeper water, require larger support structures. For shallow and intermediate water depths, monopile foundations still remain the most widely-used and cost-effective support structure due to the relative simplicity of fabrication and...master thesis 2015

Van Ginhoven, J. (author)Voor de opwekking van duurzame energie neemt het aandeel offshore windturbines stelselmatig toe, dit door de vele voordelen ten opzichte van landelijke windturbines. Het principe is overal hetzelfde; in de gondel wordt de mechanische energie wordt omgezet in elektrische energie. Hoe hoger de mast, hoe hoger de energieproductie omdat de...master thesis 2006
