2. OBJECTIVE
Main objective of this static and dynamic
analysis of a sub- structure jacket
supporting an offshore wind turbine, is to
determine the displacement which will
occur if the structure is used for 100
years

4. DESIGN
APPROACH
A finite element analysis is carried out
under different types of wave loading
these are hydrodynamic loadings, dead
& live loads and wind loads.
For the present analysis, dead loads
include all fixed items in the platform
deck, jacket, and bridge structures.
Live loads are defined as movable
loads and will be temporary in nature.

7. CONCLUSION

Due to the static loads, maximum displacement
found at top of the tower is 0.45 m which is within
safe limit.
In the dynamic analysis, maximum displacement at
top of the tower with both wave and wind together
is found to be 0.68 m during the transient state and
0.5 m during the steady state.
