An accurate prediction of the unsteady loads acting on floating offshore wind turbines
(FOWTs) under consideration of wave excitation is crucial for a resource-efficient turbine …

In order to investigate the effects of second-order hydrodynamic loads on a 15 MW floating
offshore wind turbine (FOWT), this study employs a tool that integrates AQWA and …

One of the most dangerous conditions for wind turbines is extreme operating gust (EOG),
which is characterized by transient increases in wind speed. As for a floating offshore wind …

The performance of a horizontal axis wind turbine in axial and yawed flow are investigated
by a free-wake, unsteady, three-dimensional aerodynamic formulation. Under the …

This two-part paper presents the integration of the free-vortex wake method (FVM) into an
aeroelastic framework suitable to model the rotor-wake interactions engendered by floating …

In this paper, we describe a method to investigate the fluid-structure interaction of a floating
wind turbine and to analyze the global deformations and the corresponding stresses with a …

Due to increasing environmental concerns and global energy demand, the development of
Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) is on the rise. FOWTs offer a promising solution to …

The role of unsteadiness in the aerodynamics of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT)
remains a subject of discussion among the research community. Therefore, it must be …
