Development of a numerical model to predict wear in grouted connections for offshore wind turbine generators
journal contribution
posted on 2015-03-27, 09:58 authored by Paul Dallyn, Alessandro Palmeri, Ashraf El-HamalawiAshraf El-Hamalawi, Bob KnightIn order to better understand the long term
implications of the grout wear failure mode in large-diameter plainsided
grouted connections, a numerical model has been developed
and calibrated that can take advantage of existing operational plant
data to predict the wear accumulation for the actual load conditions
experienced over a given period, thus limiting the requirement for
expensive monitoring systems. This model has been derived and
calibrated based on site structural condition monitoring (SCM) data
and supervisory control and data acquisition systems (SCADA) data
for two operational wind turbine generator substructures afflicted
with this challenge, along with experimentally derived wear rates.
