1. 1. The Paradigm Shift for Substations Technology within Wind Power Applications from Onshore to Floating

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Ahmad Talaat Hifzy; [2023]
   Keywords : Floating; offshore; substation; transformer; GIS; equipment; high-voltage; fatigue; Flytande; havsbaserad; station; transformator; GIS; utrustning; högspänning; utmattning;

   Abstract : Floating wind turbines are attracting more attention as more than three-quarters of the total offshore technical potential is located in deep water, leading to a growing trend in floating wind farm projects. Consequently, it becomes necessary to develop Floating Offshore Substation (FOSS) to step up voltage and efficiently transmit power to the shore with minimal losses. READ MORE

3. 2. Opportunities and challenges for a floating offshore wind market in California

   University essay from KTH/Industriell Marknadsföring och Entreprenörskap

   Author : Pieter-Jan Vandenbrande; [2017]
   Keywords : Floating wind turbines; California; PESTEL analysis; market challenges and opportunities;

   Abstract : The offshore wind energy industry is a rapidly growing industry as solutions are becoming cost-competitive and there is an increasing need to limit greenhouse gas emissions. New floating offshore wind turbine designs now enable the access to previously inaccessible offshore wind resources. READ MORE

4. 3. Visualization of Traffic Information in Head-Mounted Displays for Helicopter Navigation

   University essay from KTH/Flygdynamik

   Author : Johannes Ernst; [2015]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : One of the major challenges for helicopter pilots are low level flights and landings in degraded visual environments (DVE). Without proper assistance systems, the pilots are prone to lose their situational awareness (SA) when fog, heavy precipitation, limited sunlight and stirred-up sand or snow degrades their view.

5. 4. Offshore Wind Turbine Transportation & Installation Analyses Planning Optimal Marine Operations for Offshore Wind Projects

   University essay from Institutionen för kultur, energi och miljö

   Author : Emre Uraz; [2011]
   Keywords : Offshore wind farms; transportation and installations; jack-up vessels; wind turbine installation vessels; design trends in installation vessels; assembly and pre-assembly; project durations; onboard cranes; challenges due to offshore environment; time performance; crane operations;

   Abstract : Transportation and installation of offshore wind turbines (Tower, Nacelle and Rotor) is a complete process conducted over several phases, usually in sequence. There are several factors that can turn this process into a challenge. These factors can either be due to offshore site conditions or the technical limitations of the installation vessels. READ MORE

6. 5. EXPLORING THE BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES OF APPLYING AGILE METHODS IN OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för datavetenskap och kommunikation
