Logistics and supply chain management of maintenance is a very critical task in the offshore
wind energy industry. A failure to deliver proper maintenance services may adversely affect …

This paper presents a preventive maintenance policy for wind turbines considering three
effects of wind speed: accelerating hazard rate, restricting maintenance implementation, and …

Joint statistical models for long-term wave climate are a key aspect of offshore wind
engineering design. However, to find a joint model for sea-state characteristics is often …

Offshore wind is poised for huge growth in the coming years, the UK government has set
targets of 40 GW of offshore wind, including 1 GW of floating wind, to be installed in the UK …

While many operation and maintenance (O&M) decision support systems (DSS) have been
already proposed, a serious research need still exists for wind farm O&M scheduling. O&M …

Availability of wind turbine (WT) is an essential parameter both for wind project feasibility
analysis and operation and maintenance optimizations, but in offshore wind farms, it is …

Maintenance optimization has received special attention among the wind energy research
community over the past two decades. This is mainly because of the high degree of …

Improving access is a priority in the offshore wind sector, driven by the opportunity to
increase revenues, reduce costs, and improve safety at operational wind farms. This paper …

Focused on offshore wind energy operation and maintenance applications, this work
presents a detailed accessibility analysis of the North Sea. After a review of existing …

Commercial floating offshore wind projects are expected to emerge in the US by the end of
this decade. Currently, however, high costs for the technology limit its commercial viability …
