Engineering capacity demonstrated through delivered work
A catalogue of the analysis types and methods applied on offshore foundation, monopile, jacket and substation projects — from non-linear and impact FEA to AI-accelerated concept design and Workbench automation. Click any image to view full size.
Offshore foundations & structural analysis
SCF — Tubular joints (jackets)
Stress concentration factor evaluation at tubular K, T and X joint intersections — the input to jacket joint fatigue assessment per DNV recommended practice.
Pile–soil interaction
Soil–pile interaction modelling with p–y, t–z and Q–z curves for monopile and jacket pile capacity and stiffness — implemented in ANSYS for integrated structural checks.
Monopile sea-transportation
Monopile sea-transportation assessment including vessel hogging/sagging response and structural acceptance against fabrication and lashing tolerances.
Advanced & non-linear FEA
Bolted-flange FEA (WTG)
Bolt and flange detail FEA for wind-turbine generator connections — pretension, contact, gap behaviour and pre/post-yield bolt response with non-linear material data.
Vessel impact on jackets
Ship-impact analysis on offshore jackets combining ANSYS implicit pre-load and LS-DYNA explicit collision response — local plastic deformation, energy absorption and global integrity.
Pile driving (LS-DYNA)
Explicit pile-driving simulation for monopile installability — hammer–pile–soil interaction, driveability checks and driving-induced stress histories.
AI/ML, automation & post-processing
AI-accelerated design & FEA
Machine-learning surrogates embedded in the analysis workflow — concept-stage geometry, mass and impact prediction in minutes instead of full FE runs. See the live tools in the toolkit.
FEA automation — ANSYS Workbench
Parametric automation of bolted-flange, joint and component FEA in ANSYS Workbench and Mechanical APDL — repeatable, traceable, reviewable runs across design variants.
FFT — dominant response for fatigue
Frequency-domain analysis to isolate dominant response bands for fatigue post-processing of long time-history signals, including pile-driving stress histories.
Decision analysis & methodology
Value-Centric Decision (MADA)
Multi-attribute decision analysis for quantitative concept screening — weighted comparison across cost, mass, manufacturability, risk and certification, with optional single-attribute utility (SAU) curves. Applied at Vattenfall for early-phase design selection; available as a live tool.
