This interesting article from TYPSA/AZTEC (Windtech International, March/April 2021) (https://www.windtech-international.com/editorial-features/obsolescence-of-analytical-methods) fully agrees with HWS’s perception and experience:
- As onshore wind turbines increase in size and weight, a number of foundation problems arise due to various calculation and behaviour assumptions that are no longer valid, while being maintained and assumed as valid.
- It is precisely to overcome these problems that our proposal—the innovative AirBASE prefabricated WTG foundation—was conceived.
