Novel Reliability Method Validation for Floating Wind Turbines

Wind turbines and associated parts are susceptible to cyclic stresses, including torque, bending, and longitudinal stress, and twisting moments. Therefore, research on the resilience of dynamic systems under such high loads is crucial for design and future risk‐free operations. The method described...

description Wind turbines and associated parts are susceptible to cyclic stresses, including torque, bending, and longitudinal stress, and twisting moments. Therefore, research on the resilience of dynamic systems under such high loads is crucial for design and future risk‐free operations. The method described in this study is beneficial for multidimensional structural responses that have undergone sufficient numerical simulation or measurement. In contrast to established dependability methodologies, the unique technique does not need to restart the numerical simulation each time the system fails. Herein, it is demonstrated that it is also possible to accurately predict the probability of a system failure in the event of a measurable structural reaction. In contrast to well‐established bivariate statistical methods, which are known to predict extreme response levels for 2D systems accurately, this study validates a novel structural reliability method that is particularly suitable for multidimensional structural responses. In contrast to conventional methods, the novel reliability approach does not invoke a multidimensional reliability function in the Monte Carlo numerical simulation case. As demonstrated in this study, it is also possible to accurately anticipate the likelihood of a system failure in the case of a measurable structural reaction.
