Offshore Energy Structures

Engineers designing structures for offshore renewable power will find the core knowledge gathered here. The volume is written for both working professionals and students, and it explains design logic through the physics behind it rather than through dense equations. Its discussion moves between scientific theory and the standards and real-world constraints engineers face when building offshore wind turbines, wave energy converters and tidal or current turbines.

The book also looks at hybrid concepts that pair wind and wave energy on a single platform. Readers get guidance on the relevant design codes and on the numerical tools used to model these systems, making the material useful to anyone studying or working in the fast-growing offshore renewables sector.
