In order to confirm this assumption, two additional fatigue load sets were performed, one with wind only and one with waves only, in order to investigate the relative influence of the different sources of loading. Figure 5.7 shows a sample time history of the axial force at one of the pile heads, during normal power production. Figure 5.8 presents normalized DELs at the chosen output locations on the jacket for the three different cases. 60
