Offshore wind turbines are becoming increasingly popular due to their higher wind energy
harnessing capabilities and lower visual pollution. Researchers around the globe have …

In the OC5 and OC6 2 projects, the authors observed a persistent underprediction of the
nonlinear, low-frequency responses of an offshore wind semisubmersible with many mid …

In this paper, an optimization procedure is proposed to find platform and mooring system
configurations which most effectively reduce the dynamic response of a semisubmersible 10 …

In this paper, a site-specific optimization procedure aimed at finding the optimal
substructures of a 10 MW Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) is presented. An in-house …

To realize the projected increase in worldwide demand for floating offshore wind, numerical
simulation tools must capture the relevant physics with a high level of detail while being …

Abstract Existing Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) platforms are usually designed
using static or rigid-body models for the concept stage and, subsequently, sophisticated …

Reducing the motion and loads through structural control has been studied and
commercialized for decades. For floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs), tuned liquid multi …

A framework for conceptual optimal design of floating wind turbine support structures
including mooring system is proposed. A four degree-of-freedom frequency-domain model is …

Undesired motions in Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) lead to reduction of system
efficiency, the system's lifespan, wind and wave energy mitigation and increment of stress on …

The possibility of a pitch instability for floating wind turbines, due to the blade‐pitch
controller, has been discussed extensively in recent years. Contrary to many advanced multi …
