Monopiles are the most common offshore wind turbine support structures. They are to be designed so that resonance with the rotor-passing excitation is avoided. However, the estimation of the eigenfrequencies is strongly influenced by the soil-structure interaction, whose characterization with prior information is associated with large uncertainties. No clear guideline is given regarding the safety margin to be left between the structure first natural frequency and the excitation regions. In this paper, the expected consequences of leaving a certain margin are studied and quantified. The decisions regarding the investment in site-specific characterization are coupled into the decision scenario by means of a value of information analysis. The results provide insight on the efficient allocation of resources at the design point in time and the sensitivity of the decisions regarding the probabilistic characterization of the design scenario. |
