Abstract

This study entails a detailed comparison of three legged (3LJ) and four legged jacket (4LJ)&#13;substructures for large wind turbines. The focus of this study is to determine, structural&#13;performance in terms of ultimate strength, fatigue life and natural frequencies. The differentiation is made on the basis of structural performance, material usage and economic feasibility.&#13;Using parametric modeling in MATLAB, the research applies to the specific conditions of the&#13;Southern North Sea (SN II) site. Key analyses include Ultimate Limit State (ULS), Fatigue&#13;Limit State (FLS), and eigenmode evaluations.&#13;ULS assessment of both 3LJ and 4LJ is done under various loading scenarios and multiple&#13;directions to ensure structural integrity and durability according to NORSOK N-004 guidelines. The FLS analysis indicated that 4LJ structures, with higher redundancy, have longer&#13;fatigue lives, making them suitable for harsher environments despite higher initial costs. In&#13;contrast, 3LJ structures, with fewer members and welds, offer lower material and construction&#13;costs, making them ideal for less demanding conditions.&#13;The analysis of the eigen modes for the 3LJ and 4LJ shows that both designs avoid resonance&#13;with wind turbine operational frequencies. The 4LJ due to its superior stiffness has higher&#13;1st mode compared to 3LJ. While 3LJ structures achieve significant reductions in steel mass&#13;with acceptable compromise on the fatigue life overall leading to economic advantages.&#13;The study concludes that the choice between 3LJ and 4LJ jacket substructures should be&#13;based on site-specific conditions, cost considerations, and long-term performance requirements&#13;to optimize the balance between structural efficiency and economic viability.

Abstract

"Interpreting a geological setting for the purposes of engineering design and construction requires knowledge of geological engineering and engineering geology, leading to integrated engineering solutions which take into account both ground conditions and environment. This textbook, extensively illustrated, covers the subject area of geological engineering in four sections: 1. Fundamentals: soil mechanics, rock mechanics and hydrogeology; 2. Methods: site investigations, rock mass characterization and engineering geology mapping; 3. Applications: foundations, slope stability, tunnelling, dams, reservoirs and earth works, and 4. Geohazards: landslides, earthquake hazards and prevention and mitigation of geological hazards. The book can serve as a basic reference work for practising engineering geologists, geological and geotechnical engineers, geologists, civil and mining engineers and those professionals involved in design and construction of foundations, tunneling, earth works and excavations for infrastructures, buildings, mining operations, etc. As a textbook it develops an extensive teaching programme of geological engineering and is designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students and academics. Covering basic concepts up to the newest methodologies and procedures used in geological engineering. The book is illustrated with many educational working examples and graphical materials"--Provided by publisher.
