Spoke Dimension on the Motion Performance of a Floating Wind Turbine with Tension-Leg Platform

Shock and Vibration, 2016
The tension-leg platform (TLP) supporting structure is a good choice for floating offshore wind turbines because TLP has superior motion dynamics. This study investigates the effects of TLP spoke dimensions on the motion of a floating offshore wind ...

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems [PDF]

, 1995
One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension.

Wind Tunnel Wake Measurements of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

Energy Procedia, 2017
Abstract This paper reports the results of a wake measurement campaign carried out at Politecnico di Milano wind tunnel to support current studies of the authors about unsteady aerodynamics of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) as well as evaluating experimental evidence for wind farm applications of FOWT. The wind turbine scale model adopted for

Fault tolerant control design of floating offshore wind turbines [PDF]

, 2016
This work is concerned with active vibration mitigation in wind turbines (WT) but not through the use of specifically tailored devices. Instead, a general control scheme is designed for torque and pitch controllers based on a super-twisting algorithm ...
