Mitigating ice-induced offshore wind turbine vibrations utilizing a TMD system
Offshore wind farms in Bohai Bay may be exposed to sea ice. The possible development of ice-induced vibrations can result in periodic high amplitude oscillations of the structure, which can significantly contribute to the fatigue of the structure. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate...
