Continuous optimization for maximum performance and durability for offshore foundations
What is Agile Design?
Agile Design is an innovative approach in the design and operation of offshore foundations that prioritizes continuous validation, improvement and adaptability throughout the lifecycle of the structures. Unlike the traditional one-time design process, Agile Design incorporates iterative updates based on real conditions and as-built-feedback from a structural health (SHM) system. This dynamic and data-driven method enables reliable responses to any detected KPI changes in the structural condition of the foundation, founded on the combined expertise of the designer and SHM experts.
Furthermore, operators benefit from accurate and updated insights of the structural condition that allow them to optimize the lifetime management of their structural assets. By leveraging data from the Wölfel SHM systems, Agile Design ensures continuous value creation, enhancing overall design performance and longevity.
