Abstract

In this study, structural vibration analyses for a 5MW offshore wind wind-turbine model have been performed for different substructure models. The efficient equivalent modeling method based on computational multi-body dynamics are applied to the finite element models of the present offshore wind turbines. Monopile and tri-pod substructure types of the typical offshore wind-turbine are considered herein. Detailed finite element modeling concepts and boundary conditions are described and the comparison results for previous analyses are presented in order to show the verification of the present numerical approach. Campbell diagrams are also present to investigate the rotational resonance characteristics of the offshore wind-turbines with different substructures.
