Abstract
In the current green transition, shifting to renewable and sustainable energy generation sources is vital and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 requires an unprecedented rate of transformation. Wind power represents one of the cleanest and yet least exploited resources we have and further potential could be harnessed by moving to open seas. To comply with the increasing water depths, floating offshore wind farms are necessary and more advanced submarine dynamic cables must be engineered for a more efficient power transmission. On this regard, this study aims at identifying the technical requirements of dynamic cables and their actual loading conditions in harsh marine working environments.
The most critical component in dynamic cables is the corrugated radial water barrier which must ensure water-tightness despite the extensive plastic deformation due to the cold work
