  • Segmented suction bucket
    Patent number: 11261575
    Abstract: A suction bucket for a seabed foundation for an offshore facility is provided. The suction bucket is arranged for being embedded into a marine sediment. The suction bucket includes a lid and a sidewall. The sidewall is segmented into a first circumferential segment and at least a second circumferential segment. The first circumferential segment is connected with the second circumferential segment. The first circumferential segment and the second circumferential segment are attached to the lid of the suction bucket. Furthermore, the first circumferential segment and the second circumferential segment each contains at least one substantially planar section. Furthermore, a method to manufacture a suction bucket for a seabed foundation for an offshore facility is also provided.

  • Method for the strengthening of a welded connexion and/or for the increase of tolerance of a welded connexion in relation to fatigue load, element for a tower of a wind turbine, tower of a wind turbine and wind turbine
    Publication number: 20090184154
    Abstract: A method for the strengthening of a welded connexion, an element for a tower of a wind turbine, a tower of a wind turbine, and a wind turbine having a welded connexion with modified geometry are provided. The weld seam and/or for the increase of tolerance of a welded connexion in relation to fatigue load which welded connexion joins at least two sections of one component or at least one section of a first component and at least one section of a second component with each other, wherein the geometry of the weld seam and of at least one of the sections, which the at least one section adjoins to the weld seam, is specifically modified by removing welding material from the weld seam and by removing material of the respective section, which material adjoins to the weld seam.
