Sažetak
The main goal in designing the wind turbine is ensuring structural safety and optimal operational performance. Key aspects to be addressed are: long design life, sensitivity of structure to vibration and resonance, non-deterministic wind loads with significant time variations and micro-location dependence. In order to achieve these goals, a simple dynamic lumped-mass model of a conic tubular steel wind turbine tower has been developed in this paper. The tower stiffness matrix is determined by considering the stiffness of a cantilever beam with variable cross-section, and lumped masses for each conical segment are determined in such a way that the centres of gravity of conical segments match their actual position in the structure. There is a very good agreement between the measured field data and the results obtained by the developed simple numerical model.
