This thesis develops an optimization framework to reduce the mass and cost of floating offshore wind turbine substructures. Coupled numerical models and a tailored genetic algorithm evaluate system behavior and identify efficient designs. The approach emphasizes modular, multi-use components to streamline fabrication and installation of floating platforms. A case study shows how targeted optimization enhances performance and significantly lowers overall project costs.<eng> Open Access Urheberrechtsschutz 1.0 vorgelegt von Victor Benifla GutachterInnen: Uwe Ritschel (University of Rostock) ; Sascha Kosleck (University of Rostock) ; Michael Muskulus (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) ; Nina Vojdani (University of Rostock) ; Sven Grundmann (University of Rostock) Dissertation Universität Rostock 2025 620 https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00005673 Design optimization of multi-use components for floating offshore wind turbine substructures--(DE-627)1979870446 urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00005673-5 doi: 10.18453/rosdok_id00005673 oclc: 1606321343 ppn: (DE-627)1979866481
