• A Fluid-Solid Coupled Micromechanical Simulation of Piping Erosion During the Installation of a Suction Bucket for the Foundation of an Offshore Wind Turbine

    Lisbon Congress Centre Praça das Indústrias 1, Lisboa, Portugal

    If you’re not in the mini-symposium with Anna, make sure to come see Samuel Kemmler’s talk ‘A Fluid-Solid Coupled Micromechanical Simulation of Piping Erosion During the Installation of a Suction Bucket for the Foundation of an Offshore Wind Turbine’. It is part of the mini-symposium 020 – Advancements in Offshore Wind Structures , which will be held in Room 2.02.

  • Mini-Symposium 4: Modernizing CFD: Exploring CI/CD for Improved Software Development Life Cycle

    Universitätsclub Bonn e.V. Konviktstr.9, Bonn, Germany

    Join CEEC at the 35th Parallel CFD International Conference 2024 this fall in Bonn, Germany.

    In the Mini-Symposium 4: Modernizing CFD: Exploring CI/CD for Improved Software Development Life Cycle, CEEC will be joined by sister European Centers of Excellence EXCELLERAT P2, EOCOE3, and HIDALGO 2 supported by the coordination activity CASTIEL 2. This symposium will focus on the role of Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) in guaranteeing CFD simulation applications’ stability, reproducibility, portability, and performance.

  • Calibration of Analytical Suction Bucket Installation Models Using Grain-Scale LBM-DEM Simulations

    Suction bucket foundations offer significant advantages for offshore wind applications, enabling fast and cost-efficient installation. However, installation failures due to piping erosion remain a critical challenge, particularly in loose or highly permeable seabeds. Understanding the interplay between seepage flow, soil properties, and foundation geometry during suction installation is essential for improving design guidelines and installation strategies. In this talk, Samuel Kemmler presents results that illustrate how fully resolved LBM-DEM modeling can complement experimental and field studies, providing a powerful tool for developing more robust suction bucket installation strategies in challenging seabed conditions.
