In this work, we provide experimental data on the viscoplastic deformation behaviour of a grade-s960ql steel up to a temperature of 1000 ◦C. In addition, a multi-phase viscoplastic material model is proposed, which accounts for the experimentally observed isothermal deformation behaviour of grade-s960ql steel base and austenitised material, as well as for athermal contributions that originate from solid-state phase transformations. The multi-phase viscoplastic and a classic rateindependent isotropic hardening material model were applied in the numerical simulations of both-ends-fixed bar Satoh tests and a single-pass gas metal arc weld. The influence of material modelling choices on the agreement between numerical simulation and experimental results is discussed, and recommendations for further work are given.

However, the grounding of the offshore wind plants governs the overall installation process besides bureaucratic bottlenecks. The application of lightweight principles in steel construction, e.g. the usage dissolved load-bearing structures, so called Jackets foundations, offer great potential in reducing the resource consumption, especially with respect to the needed amount of steel. In this context this paper focuses on a fully digitalization of the welding manufacturing and as well as testing chain to enable a fully automated manufacturing as well as quality assessment of tubular nodes as key element of Jackets foundation structures. Furthermore, the relationship between the seam shape geometry and resulting fatigue strength is evaluated by numerical methods incorporating bionic principles. It is shown that tubular nodes can be welded fully automatically taking geometry tolerances into account. Moreover, the seam shape could be manufactured as requested by the numerical models which offers great potential for an extended lifetime. Subsequently, the improvements in resource efficiency and reduction of carbon dioxide emissions are evaluated by a life-cycle-assessment.

Besides XL-monopiles the jacket support structure is a reasonable alternative due to the high rigidity combined with low material consumption. However, the effort for manufacturing of the hollow section joints reduces the economic potential of jacket structures significantly. Therefore, a changeover from an individual towards a serial production based on automated manufactured tubular joints combined with standardized pipes must be achieved. Hence, this paper addresses the welding process chain of automated manufactured tubular joints including digitization of the relevant manufacturing parameters such as laser scanning of the weld seam geometry. Additionally, a methodology for the computation of the notch radius as well as the weld seam angle is presented based on the scanned profiles of three analysis points of an automated manufactured tubular X-joint. Subsequently, these parameters are considered within the notch stress approach based fatigue design and their impact is quantified by a comparison with the structural stress approach using equivalent stress concentration factors.

Offshore-Windenergie spielt hierbei eine zentrale Rolle, da sie dank der Kombination aus globaler Verfügbarkeit, relativ geringen Betriebskosten und fortgeschrittenem technischen Entwicklungsstand besonders geeignet ist, zur regenerativen Stromerzeugung beizutragen. Sie ist zudem ein Schlüsselelement für die Umsetzung des Europäischen Green Deals, der das Ziel verfolgt, bis 2050 Klimaneutralität in der EU zu erreichen. Expertenschätzungen zufolge ist eine Steigerung der aktuellen Kapazität von 25 GW im Jahr 2020 auf etwa 450 GW notwendig, um diese ambitionierten Ziele zu erfüllen. Bei der Entwicklung zukünftiger Offshore-Windparks, insbesondere in tieferen Gewässern, gewinnen Jacket-Gründungsstrukturen an Bedeutung. Diese Strukturen, die eine höhere Steifigkeit bei geringerem Materialeinsatz im Vergleich zu den bisher vorherrschenden Monopile-Gründungen bieten, basieren auf komplexen, räumlich aufgelösten Konstruktionen, die ähnlich den Öl- und Gasplattformen entwickelt werden. Die Herstellung der Jacketknoten, die bislang überwiegend manuell geschweißt wurden, birgt erhebliches Optimierungspotential. Durch Automatisierung und Digitalisierung der Fertigungsprozesse könnten nicht nur die Effizienz gesteigert, sondern auch die Qualität der Endprodukte durch präzise Überwachung und Kontrolle der Produktionsparameter verbessert werden. Diese technologischen Fortschritte sind für die Skalierung der Offshore-Windenergie und die Erreichung der Klimaziele von entscheidender Bedeutung.

Für die automatisierte Anwendung des Verfahrens unter Produktionsbedingungen muss dabei die Prozesssicherheit auch für mitunter große Variationen der Spaltbreite entlang der Schweißnaht gesichert bleiben. In erster Linie betrifft dies bei mechanischer Auslenkung der Drahtelektrode die Adaption der Pendelbewegung auf die jeweilige Spaltbreite um eine ausreichende Flankenanbindung zu garantieren. Für die Online-Regelung der Pendelbewegung mittels Lichtbogensensorik wurde eine Methode implementiert die die notwendigen Pendelwinkel an jeder Nahtflanke unabhängig ermittelt und darüber hinaus Fehlstellungen des Brenners sowie Veränderungen des Kontaktrohrabstandes und der Prozessparameter eigenständig kompensiert. Eine Füllgradregelung auf Grundlage optischer Erfassung und Auswertung der Schweißnahtgeometrie wurde zusätzlich eingesetzt um bei veränderlichen Nahtquerschnittsflächen einen vorgegebenen, gleichbleibenden Lagenaufbau zu erzielen.
