Two-way coupling fluid–structure interaction analysis on dynamic response of offshore wind turbine
The monopile-supported offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are subjected to the wave and current loadings. Affected by currents and waves, monopile-supported OWTs are also vulnerable to scour. However, the effect of scour and currents on the dynamic behavior of the monopile are not fully appreciated. This study conducted the model tests to evaluate the effect of scour depth and flow velocity on the lateral responses of support structure. Furthermore, the two-way (T-W) coupling fluid–structure interaction (FSI) method was proposed to evaluate the dynamic responses of piles in sand. The support structure is modeled using ABAQUS, a finite-element models software package, by considering the nonlinear soil–structure interaction effects, STAR-CCM + tools has been employed to model the FSI which are fed into ABAQUS to predict the structure’s dynamic response. Using the proposed method, a parametric study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of scour depths, flow velocities on the dynamic responses of OWTs. The results indicate that scour altered the fundamental frequency of OWT, causing resonance. An increase in scour depth and flow velocity increased the dynamic responses of support structure, which are detrimental for the safety and stability of the OWT system.
