Abstract: As offshore wind turbines supported on floating platforms extend to deep waters, the various effects involved in the dynamics, especially those resulting from the influence of moorings, become significant when predicting ...

Abstract: The simulation of wind and wave fields for the evaluation of jacket-supported offshore wind turbines during Hurricane Sandy of 2012 is the focus of this study. For realistic load assessment of offshore wind turbines, it ...

Abstract: The dynamic response of a jacket-supported offshore wind turbine under coupled wind, wave, and current fields during Hurricane Sandy is the subject of this study. To illustrate the detailed procedure related to the response ...

Abstract: In an emerging “blue economy,” the use of large multi-purpose floating platforms in the open ocean is being considered. Such platforms could possibly support a diversified range of commercial activities including energy ...

Abstract: The expectation of rapid growth in floating offshore wind farms (FOWFs) calls for urgent development of the associated supply chain comprising floater fabrication, transportation, assembly, and installation. As the ...

Abstract: A porous-media-tuned liquid damper (PMTLD) can serve as an effective and economical dynamic vibration absorber. Placing porous media within a water tank can improve the capacity for energy dissipation and optimize the ...

Abstract: Offshore renewable energy, derived from wind and waves, is increasingly being considered in many world regions. Co-location of offshore wind turbine and wave energy converter arrays allows the shared use of space and offers ...

Abstract: In wind turbine design, external conditions to be considered depend on the intended site for the planned installation. Wind turbine classes, defined in terms of wind speed and turbulence parameters, cover most sites and ...
