Description
Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations
About the Course
Given the harsh environment of offshore wind, a major design and O&M challenge is the corrosion and fatigue of the structure. This workshop is de-signed to give engineers a more rounded apprecia-tion of the unique considerations that should be given to the structural integrity assessment of off-shore wind turbine foundations.
Several areas will be covered leaving delegates with a more rounded appreciation of the fatigue issues relevant to offshore wind foundations. Throughout the course, tutorials and practical con-siderations will be used to consolidate the knowledge gained by the attendees and gauge their understanding.
