Study on Mooring Design of 15 MW Floating Wind Turbines in South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Wind turbines and floating platform upsizing are major trends in the current offshore wind development. However, harsh environmental conditions increase the risk of anchor dragging and mooring failure when deploying large offshore floating wind turbines.

Ocean Wave Modulation of Offshore Wind Turbine Loads and Wake

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how wave‐induced modulation affects the operational performance and structural dynamics of fixed‐bottom offshore wind turbines operating under a neutral atmospheric boundary layer profile. To capture these effects accurately while maintaining computational efficiency, unsteady RANS modelling techniques are employed.

Comparison of Power and Thrust Performance for a Fixed and Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Floating offshore wind turbines have been identified as a critical technology for sustainable electricity generation. Wind resource assessment is used to determine optimal locations for floating wind farms. However, current methodologies do not account for performance differences between fixed and floating turbines due to wind‐ and wave ...

Research on the Dynamic Behaviors of a Spar Floating Offshore Wind Turbine With an Innovative Type of Mooring System

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Due to the existence of rotor and tower, the floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) is subjected to greater wind heeling moment than the conventional floating platform, which would cause significant pitch motion and bring great challenge to the structural

Power Quality‐Oriented Multiloop Design of Floating Wind Turbines Pitch Control

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) face inherent control limitations in above‐rated operating conditions due to right‐half‐plane zeros in the blade‐pitch‐to‐rotor‐speed dynamics, which restrict achievable control bandwidth and may lead to closed‐loop instability.
