Passive Control of a Pentapod Offshore Wind Turbine Under Earthquakes by Using Tuned Mass Damper [PDF]
The finite element model (FEM) of a pentapod offshore wind turbine (OWT) is established in the newly compiled FAST. The dynamic responses of the OWT are analyzed in detail. Further, a tuned mass damper as a passive control strategy is applied in order to
