Presentation: Fatigue assessment of circumferential butt welds | Marc Seidel, Siemens Gamesa
Insights from Wind Week 2025 – Conference of Offshore Foundations
This presentation by Dr. Ing. Marc Seidel (Siemens Gamesa) captures key discussions from Wind Week 2025 on fatigue optimization for circumferential butt welds. It highlights where current design practices, assumptions, and code interpretations may introduce risk and which factors most strongly influence fatigue performance in large offshore structures.
