T1 - Offshore Wind Energy Research in Germany - RAVE - Research at Alpha VEntus N2 - To start the large-scale deployment of offshore wind in German waters, the German Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMU) supports the offshore test site "alpha ventus" in the North Sea with a research budget of about 50 million Euro in the next years. The overall objective of the research is to reduce the costs of offshore wind energy deployment in deep water. In order to provide all participating research projects with detailed data, the test site will be equipped with extensive measurement instrumentation. This research initiative was named RAVE – Research at Alpha VEntus – and consists of a variety of projects in connection with the installation and operation of alpha ventus. As part of the RAVE initiative, so far the participating institutes and companies have prepared projects on the following topics: • Realization of the joint measurements and data management • Analysis of loads, modelling and further development of the different components of offshore wind turbines • Loads at offshore foundations and structures • Further development of LIDAR wind measuring techniques • Grid integration of offshore wind energy • Monitoring of the offshore wind energy deployment in Germany – "Offshore WMEP" • Measurement of the operating noises and modelling of the sound propagation between tower and water • Ecologic research T2 - European Offshore Wind 2007 Conference & Exhibition CY - Berlin, Germany DA - 2007-12-04 KW - Offshore Wind Energy KW - Rave KW - Foundations PY - 2007 SP - 1 EP - 10 AN - OPUS4-17976 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Weltschev, Margit A1 - Bäßler, Ralph A1 - Werner, H.

T1 - Use of corrosion resistant high-alloyed metallic materials for transport tanks of dangerous goods and water-polluting substances N2 - In Germany the “BAM-List – Requirements for Tanks for the Transport of Dangerous Goods” is the basis for substance-related prototype approvals for tank containers designed for the carriage of dangerous goods. Such approval is undertaken by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM). Compatibility evaluations of selected metallic material groups as well as of polymeric gasket and lining materials under the influence of dangerous goods and water-polluting substances are published in section 5 of the BAM-List. According to the relevant regulations for rail, road and sea transportation a compulsory internal inspection after certain intervals is required. The required corrosion resistance depends on the length of the inspection interval. There is a large number of dangerous goods with a high corrosivity to metals, where the standard steels are not corrosion resistant. Chemical companies, transportation providers and tank producers need tanks made of corrosion-resistant materials in order to protect the tank shell and prevent contamination of high-value cargo as well as the environment. One solution is to line the tank with a polymeric material, an alternative solution to corrosion problems is the application of high-alloyed materials. Only a narrow limited number of corrosion test results of these high-alloyed materials under the influence of corrosive dangerous goods are available. In order to change this situation and include the superaustenitic steels X1NiCrMoCuN25-20-7 (Alloy 926), X1NiCrMoCu32-28-7 (Alloy 31) and the nickel-based alloy NiCr23Mo16Al (Alloy 59) in the BAM-List, BAM, IKS Dresden and ThyssenKrupp VDM started an comprehensive test program with welded specimens made. The program comprises corrosion resistance evaluations of the high-alloyed materials in substances representing 12 major groups of corrosive dangerous goods (e.g. inorganic halogenides, organic acidic halogenides, halogenic carbonic acids, chlorosilanes, chlorates, perchlorates, chlorites, hypochlorites and hydrogen sulphates). The test results, presented in this paper, will be included in the upcoming 8th edition of the BAM-List and therefore available for the costumer.

ED - Neil Dixon, T1 - Long-term performance and lifetime prediction of geosynthetics N2 - To properly understand and assess the long-term behaviour of geosynthetic materials it is necessary to investigate the various types of possible degradation mechanims. This includes both chemical and mechanical behaviour, and sometimes even their interactions with one another. Clearly, chemical degradation of geosynthetics depends on the polymer type. For example, polyolefins are vulnerable to oxidation; polyesters are susceptible to hydrolysis; and plasticizers can leach from polyvinyl chloride. This paper describes the concept of these three types of degradation, but focuses on the oxidation of polyolefins since the majority of the geosynthetics is made from this type of polymer. The methods used to predict the lifetime of antioxidants and service life of the geosynthetic material will be illustrated. Furthermore, the influence of temperature, pressure, and ultraviolet light on the service life are also demonstrated. Finally, the current specifications targeting the longevity of different geosynthetics are presented. Regarding mechanical degradation, the paper mainly focuses upon the creep deformation of geogrids and stress crack resistance (SCR) of polyethylene geomembranes and geopipe. The method to assess stress crack resistance is described, and the microscopic mechanisms that lead to such failure are explained. For creep evaluation, different acceleration tests are presented and their applicability with respect to the different types of polymers is illustrated. In addition, the long-term shear behaviour of geocomposites and geosynthetic clay liners is presented.
