Identification of Vibration Modes in Floating Offshore Wind Turbines [PDF]
Compared to onshore turbines, floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) take advantage of the increased availability of offshore wind while causing less environmental impact. However, the strong winds, waves, and currents to which they are subjected trigger oscillations that can cause significant damage to the entire structural system and reduce its ...
