Abstract:Developing offshore wind power can effectively reduce carbon emissions, and adopting large‐capacity wind turbines is an important way to achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase. With increasing power capacity, the hub height and rotor‐nacelle assemblies (RNA) load will increase significantly. Ultra‐high performance concrete (UHPC) possesses ultra‐high compressive performance, good tensile, fatigue, and corrosion resistance, and thus is an effective way to further improve the mechanical performance and e… Show more
