Experimental study on the in-place stability of a self-installing jack-up type 10 MW offshore wind turbine during leg lowering

A 1:25 scale model test was conducted to evaluate the motions, green water risk, and motion-induced interruption (MII) during the leg lowering steps of in-place installation for a self-installing jack-up type 10 MW offshore wind turbine. For three leg lowering steps, in which the...
