Comparison of methodologies to combine strain cycle histograms to an accumulated damage figure at a point of interest along the circumference of an offshore wind support structure Vrije Universiteit Brussel
the subject of data-driven lifetime assessment of offshore wind support structures (OWSS). To
this stage, the recorded strain signals are converted into fore-aft (FA) and side-side (SS)
bending moments to calculate the corresponding damage metrics, such as Palmgren-Miner
damage, damage equivalent load (DEL) or damage equivalent moment (DEM). A ...
