Design, Construction, and Global Performance Analysis of Offshore Wind TurbinesAuthor(s): Fatima Aderouane\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer International Publishing AG\nISBN-13: 9783031860096, 978-3031860096\nSynopsis\nThis extensive and expansive book focuses on three core areas of detail: the design, construction, and classification criteria for offshore bottom-load wind turbines; offshore floating-load wind turbines; and the global performance and integrated load analysis of offshore wind turbines. The book explains the rules and regulations (as they currently exist) around the design and building of offshore wind turbines and then analyzes their performance parameters around the globe. For context, the book includes simulations based on models across varying operational conditions including wind loads, snow and ice, rain, and other typical maritime conditions. This book makes ideal reading for offshore engineers, s.
