Single-blade installation is a popular method for installing blades on bottom-fixed offshore
wind turbines. A jack-up crane vessel is often employed, and individual blades with their …

The integrated installation method for offshore wind turbines has the characteristics of high
efficiency and low economic cost due to the small amount of construction work. However, the …

This paper discusses a new installation method for floating offshore wind with installation
procedure, essential variables, and fender system effects on the dynamic responses. The …

Nowadays, the demand for using jack-up platforms to carry out a large percentage of deep-
water oil and gas exploration is steadily increasing. The response of jack-up platforms to the …

Wind energy is one of the most rapidly growing sectors in renewable energy generation,
with wind turbines being central to this expansion. Regular maintenance, particularly the …

Short-term wave forecasts are essential for the execution of marine operations. In this paper,
an efficient and reliable physics-based machine learning (PBML) model is proposed to …

Despite the need to ensure that operations at the end of the infrastructure life cycle are
carried out in a safe and efficient manner, there is no systematic risk analysis study tailored …

This paper presents the performance of a new, floating, mono-hull wind turbine installation
vessel (Nordic Wind) in the installation process. The vessel can transport pre-assembled …
