RISLiDAR Measurements of Wind Shear Exponents and Turbulence Intensity Offshore the Northeast United States
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents wind speed shear exponents and turbulence intensity (TI) measurements collected from light imaging, detection, and ranging instruments (LiDARs) measuring wind speeds from 40 m to 200 m above sea level ...
Model Test of a 1:8 Scale Floating Wind Turbine Offshore in the Gulf of Maine1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new floating wind turbine platform design called VolturnUS developed by the University of Maine uses innovations in materials, construction, and deployment technologies such as a concrete semisubmersible hull and a ...
The Effect of Counterweight Mass and Line Stiffness on the Global Dynamic Performance of a Hanging-Mass Floating Offshore Wind Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Innovative floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) platforms that deviate from the conventional semi-submersible, spar, and tension leg platforms (TLP) have become increasingly common due to the need to tap into the high ...
Methodology for Wind/Wave Basin Testing of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Scalemodel wave basin testing is often employed in the development and validation of largescale offshore vessels and structures by the oil and gas, military, and marine industries. A basinmodel test requires less time, ...
Experimental Comparison of an Annular Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Hull Against Past Model Test Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) hull technologies are evolving rapidly with many technically viable designs. However, a commercially dominant architecture has yet to emerge. Early hull designs including semisubmersible, ...
