Driving efficiency in foundation design

Effiwind’s online platform has been created with the sole purpose of rapidly providing cost-efficient foundation designs.

With its unique analysis capabilities and unprecedented turnaround time, it sets new standards for the concept design of offshore wind foundations.

Intuitive web interface

Effiwind’s platform is accessed via an easy-to-use web interface, where all the inputs are provided in a user-friendly and thoughtfully designed layout.

Results from the analyses are readily accessible, allowing you to quickly obtain foundation designs from anywhere in the world via a web browser.

Advanced analysis capabilities

Effiwind’s platform has been created specifically for the design and optimisation of offshore wind foundations, meeting industry’s best practice and often pushing the boundaries of the design.

The following are an integral part of our platform:

  • State-of-the-art hydrodynamic modelling capabilities for both linear and non-linear waves.
  • Highly efficient solvers for dynamic analysis.
  • Flexibility in modelling soil-structure interaction considering either closed-form 1D curves or results from more detailed geotechnical analyses.
  • Comprehensive design checks for the critical limit states in accordance with the latest standards.

Industry-leading optimisation

The optimisation algorithms used within Effiwind’s platform combine a robust engineering and mathematical basis with best practices in scientific computing.

As a result, efficient foundation designs can be produced for otherwise challenging design inputs, with an unparalleled turnaround time.

Comprehensive automated reporting

For each analysed foundation, a comprehensive design report is automatically generated.

The report clearly sets out the inputs, the methodology and the design results, including key summary metrics and drawings of the foundations.
