Waves induced wind impact on Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) in Black Sea

2024 Advanced Topics on Measurement and Simulation (ATOMS)
Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) are engineering solution for offshore wind exploitation in deep waters. Their design is not revolutionary as such installation has already been used for FPSOs (floating production storage and offloading vessel), it has to be taken into consideration that unlike FPSOs, FOWT are easily influenced by surrounding ...

A Structured Techno‐Economic and Socio‐Regulatory Comparison of Onshore, Fixed‐Bottom Offshore, and Floating Offshore Wind Energy Systems

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Onshore, fixed‐bottom offshore, and floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) represent distinct technological pathways for large‐scale wind energy deployment, yet comparative assessments often emphasize descriptive characteristics rather than quantified performance trade‐offs.

Tracking Mooring Lines of Floating Structures by an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 42, Issue 8, Page 4589-4608, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study presents a novel method for tracking mooring lines of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) using an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) equipped with a tilt‐controlled Multibeam Imaging Sonar (MBS). The proposed approach enables the AUV to estimate the 3D positions of mooring lines and safely track them in real‐time, overcoming ...

Scaled Physical Modelling of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines Using a Neural Network‐Based Surrogate Model for Aerodynamic Emulation

Wind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Scaled physical modelling of floating offshore wind turbines is a crucial step in the continued development of floating offshore wind to reach Net‐Zero goals. However, it is an inherently difficult task due to the incongruity between Reynolds scaling (important for wind effects) and Froude scaling (important for wave effects).

Multiple model predictive control for offshore wind turbines operating in the full‐load range

Asian Journal of Control, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 2023-2036, July 2025.
Abstract This paper presents a multiple model predictive control (MMPC) strategy based on an individual blade pitch (IBP) mechanism to control floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) when operating in the full‐load range (above the rated wind speed).

Soil–Anchor Interaction Effects on Dominant Frequencies in Offshore Wind Turbines Supported by Tension Leg Platforms

Wind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This study presents an experimental investigation into the influence of anchor–soil interaction on the dynamic behaviour of tension leg platform (TLP)–type floating wind turbines. A 1/100 scale model of the NREL 5‐MW reference wind turbine was fabricated using a 3D printer, with scaling parameters determined based on Froude scaling laws to ...

Analysis of Dynamic Characteristics of an Ultra-Large Semi-Submersible Floating Wind Turbine

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
An initial design of the platform for the moderate water depth (100 m) is performed by upscaling of an existing 5 MW braceless semi-submersible platform design to support the DTU (Danish University of Science and Technology) 10 MW wind turbine.
