Design optimisation of wind turbine towers with reliability-based calibration of partial safety factors

Having an optimal design of the wind turbine tower, with a minimum mass (cost) while fulfilling multiple design constraints, plays an important role in ensuring an economic and safe design of the wind turbine. During the design of wind turbine towers, partial safety factors (PSFs) are currently comm...
