Probabilistic modelling of geotechnical conditions for offshore wind turbine support structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The geotechnical conditions of the soil can fluctuate greatly across the wind farm. This is an issue since geotechnical modelling is the base of the structural design of an offshore wind farm, and the efficient installation of the wind turbines ...

On the Controllability of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract An analytical method for assessing the controllability of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) is presented in this work. Modern linear control theory principles are applied to linearized FOWT models to establish quantifiable metrics to determine advantageous, or disadvantageous, differences in turbine models from a controls ...

Floating Offshore Wind Turbines: Current Status and Future Prospects

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Offshore wind energy is a sustainable renewable energy source that is acquired by harnessing the force of the wind offshore, where the absence of obstructions allows the wind to travel at higher and more steady speeds. Offshore wind has recently grown in

On the Modelling of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

open access: yesWind Energy, 2003
AbstractThe location of wind turbines on floating structures offshore would allow an immense resource to be tapped without the drawbacks large developments can have on public opinion. There are, however, potentially significant technical and cost drawbacks.

On the Modeling of Spar-Type Floating Offshore Wind Turbines [PDF]

open access: yesKey Engineering Materials, 2013
In this paper an overview about floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) including operating conditions, property and applicability of the barge, tension-leg, and spar floating platforms is described. The spar-floating offshore wind turbines (S-FOWT) have advantages in deepwater and their preliminary design, numerical modeling tools and integrated ...
