As India shifts towards renewable energy source, wind turbine beomces an economical solution to meet the ever increasing wind demands.
However, as wind turbine technology rapidly evolves with taller towers and larger rotors, the complexity of foundation design significantly increases. This complexity is primarily due to larger overturning moments and the cyclic nature of the loading on the foundations.
This webinar delves into the key takeaways from the webinar discussion
Traditional design practices are proving to be overly conservative for these new-age turbines, leading to potential overdesign. This scenario underscores the need for thorough investigations into both monotonic and cyclic behaviors of wind turbine foundations, ensuring their safety and cost-effectiveness. The use of advanced 3D numerical simulations is now crucial for designing these modern foundations.
