About this document

Seismic Impact on Wind Turbines by Lhester Navasca is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This paper studies the effects of soil-foundation-structure interaction on the seismic response of 65 kW, 1 MW, and 2 MW horizontal-axis wind turbines with different foundation types through finite element analysis. Four foundation types were analyzed: spread foundation, mono pile, pile group with cap, and anchored spread foundation. Soil was modeled implicitly using subgrade reaction modulus and explicitly. The finite element model was validated using experimental data. Natural frequencies were examined us
