Abstract

Description: The research will develop and apply methodologies to create a storm event climatology that characterizes standards-based design parameters for extreme winds, waves, currents, and water levels at event return periods appropriate to the acceptable risk for safe operation and survival of the various different components of offshore wind projects, including the turbine, rotor-nacelle-assembly, the turbine support tower, turbine and tower foundation structures, and accessory platforms....
