Benchmarking of spectral methods for fatigue assessment of mooring systems and dynamic cables in offshore renewable energy technologies
(Elsevier, 2024)Fatigue life estimation methods based on time-domain and rainflow counting techniques are widely recognised and accepted for their reliability. However, applying them in scenarios involving random loads with multiple ... -
Context-informed conditional anomaly detection approach for wave power plants: The case of air turbines
(Elsevier, 2022)The reliability and energy production of wave power plants (WPPs) depend on sea-state conditions, operation efficiency and degradation of its constituent assets. Air turbines are key assets for the efficient and reliable ... -
A holistic optimization tool for the design of power take-off systems in realistic wave climates: The Wells turbine case
(Elsevier, 2023)The growing demand of energy coupled with the worldwide commitments in favor of renewable technologies turns marine renewable sources especially attractive, including wave energy. In particular, the oscillating water column ... -
Integrated machine learning and probabilistic degradation approach for vessel electric motor prognostics
(Elsevier, 2023)In the transition towards more sustainable ships, electric motors (EM) are being used in ship propulsion systems to reduce emissions and increase efficiency. The safe operation of ships is crucial, and prognostics and ... -
On the definition of a risk index based on long-term metocean data to assist in the design of Marine Renewable Energy systems
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) systems are designed to maximise energy generation and ensure survivability. The traditional design process is based on pure environmental conditions, tends to be too conservative and limits ... -
Systematic complexity reduction of wave-to-wire models for wave energy system design
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020)Wave-to-wire models are valuable tools for a variety of applications in the development of successful wave energy converters. However, computational requirements of these wave-to-wire models are often prohibitive for certain ...
