A novel three dimensional nonlinear tuned mass damper and its application in floating offshore wind turbines

V Jahangiri et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel three-dimensional non-linear tuned mass damper (3d-NTMD) to effectively mitigate three-dimensional structural responses. A numerical search approach is adopted to determine the optimum design, and the 3d-NTMD has the potential to mitigate three-dimensional vibrations of a large set of civil/mechanical systems.

Numerical analysis of passive toroidal tuned liquid column dampers for the vibration control of monopile wind turbines using FVM and FEM

Hao Ding et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the use of toroidal tuned liquid column damper (TTLCD) for vibration control in monopile fixed-bottom offshore wind turbines. The control performance of TTLCD under wind, wave, and seismic loads is analyzed. The results show that TTLCD can effectively control the structural responses in both fore-aft and side-side directions simultaneously.

Combining LIDAR and LADRC for intelligent pitch control of wind turbines

Chengzhen Jia et al.

Summary: This study proposes a hybrid intelligent and adaptive pitch control approach to reduce wind turbine generator speed fluctuation and blade root load. By combining RBFNNFIR based on LIDAR wind measurement with a variable bandwidth of LADRC controller, the approach enables self-adaptation and self-adjustment. Initial results show that this hybrid approach can significantly reduce generator speed fluctuation and blade root load compared to traditional PI control algorithm.

Inerter-enhanced tuned mass damper for vibration damping of floating offshore wind turbines

Zili Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the use of an inerter-enhanced vibration absorber, the rotational inertia double tuned mass damper (RIDTMD), for damping in-plane vibrations of a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT). It compares the performance of RIDTMD and TMD in both frequency domain (FD) and time domain (TD), showing that RIDTMD consistently outperforms TMD in suppressing tower side-side vibrations with the cost of slightly larger damper stroke. Both dampers positively influence spar roll motion and blade edgewise vibration.

Experimental study on seismic vibration control of an offshore wind turbine with TMD considering soil liquefaction effect

Ging-Long Lin et al.

Summary: Wind energy is clean and sustainable. Taiwan is developing offshore wind farms in the Taiwan Strait, which are in earthquake-prone areas with sandy seabeds. To ensure the safety and reliability of the wind turbines in these conditions, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are being used to reduce structural vibrations. Testing has been conducted on a scaled-down model to study the dynamic behavior of a typical 5-MW wind turbine in these challenging environments.

Study on a 3D pounding pendulum TMD for mitigating bi-directional vibration of offshore wind turbines

V. Jahangiri et al.

Summary: A novel three-dimensional pounding pendulum tuned mass damper (3d-PPTMD) is developed to reduce vibrations of offshore wind turbines caused by misaligned wind and wave loading. The 3d-PPTMD is found to be more effective and compact compared to traditional damping systems, providing better mitigation performance under different loading scenarios and off-tuning effects.

Summary: The study introduces a three-dimensional adaptive pendulum tuned mass damper (3D-APTMD) to control excessive vibration of offshore wind turbines. Through an adaptive tuning algorithm, the damper adjusts its natural frequency and damping properties in real-time to match the wind turbine dominant frequency, showing promising effectiveness in maintaining performance during damage and offering improved reduction effects compared to traditional dampers.
