DIONYSOS
Digital intelligent operational network using hybrid sensors / simulations approach
Duration: 36 months (2021 - 2024)
CONTEXT
Within the context of floating wind development, there will be at least 10 operational floating wind turbines in French waters by 2023. They will provide a valuable learning center to achieve operational excellence and design optimisation in floating wind sector which is crucial to drive the levelised cost of energy down. Being able to im-plement lessons learnt from field experiments into their own digital twin system would allow industry to be fully prepared when farm deployments come along.
OBJECTIVE
To develop and test a fatigue monitoring system for floater and mooring lines of a floating wind turbine
SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL CONTENT
- Review of the structural health methodology usefull for fatigue life of floater parts
- At sea testing of functionalities thanks to the deployment of sensors on a real offshore wind turbine
- Assimilation of data from field observations in the floating wind turbine digital twin with a machine learning methodology to improve integration between sensors (wave, wind, motions, structural health monitoring) and numerical models of floating wind turbine
- Web platform developmment
- Construction of the digital twin: sensors ca-libration and deployment, numerical tool development, default detection, analysis of outputs, meta-model learning assessment, multi-level analysis
