Offshore wind farms are not only being built — the first generation of wind farms is now reaching its originally planned design lifetime. By updating design assumptions using as-built information, uncertainties can be reduced and wind farms can be operated more efficiently. Our work focuses on topics such as lifetime extension, preventive maintenance strategies, and optimized operational concepts.
