Potential output of the project: |
As offshore wind turbines (OWT) increase in size, larger support structures are required to ensure the reliability of the asset. This ultimately introduces new engineering challenges, from the design stage through to manufacturing and installation. Despite being an essential joining technique for OWT, welding degrades structural properties and reduces fatigue resistance. The aim of this project is to expand the knowledge of the welding impact on the reliability of offshore structures and optimise welding processes to extend fatigue life. Therefore, further investigation on the effects of welding techniques in thick plates (thickness ≥ 50 mm) using numerical and experimental methods will be carried out in order to understand the development of residual stresses, behaviour of cracks and fatigue performance. |
