Offshore Wind Farms for Deep Water Sites - The Future

At CUED, we are establishing a cross-disciplinary Experts Pool that aims to:

  • Develop a holistic system based approach to Deep Water Wind Farms;
  • Design of Mooring Systems for floating systems, foundations for offshore electric substations;
  • Design Turbine blades using new materials;
  • Minimise vibrations by better understanding damping in the super-structure as well as the hydro-dynamic and soil damping;
  • Design Gear Boxes and Generators that can withstand vibrations.
