Offshore Wind Energy

The goal of the Offshore Wind Energy subproject is to address key challenges in deep-sea floating offshore wind technologies. The subproject has three focus areas: (1) improve blade aerodynamics prediction by developing novel CFD-based corrected BEM models, (2) develop probabilistic model and analyze structural uncertainty with life-cycle reliability analysis, and 3) data science of damage risk assessment with big-data-aided structural damage detection of the system. Dr. Huque is the group leader and the technical coordinator of CEES, Dr. Doeun Choe is the co-lead for this subproject.
