... system design particularly for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) in shallow water of 50~100m depth. Another challenge is that the existing catenary mooring system typically has a large footprint on the seabed which may have negative impacts on the marine environment. In this paper, a new fixed...

The study uses site-specific metocean, geophysical, and rope test data to demonstrate the benefits of a semi-taut polyester mooring system compared to a chain catenary system. platform turbine umaine fowt wind turbine polyester...

... Abstract Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) offer unique operational and maintenance (O&M) challenges and opportunities compared to their fixed-bottom counterparts. Situated further from shore, FOWT benefit from stronger, more consistent winds, but this increased distance leads...

... As per DNV-RP-A204 (2020 ), there are two main categories of functional elements (or digital twins) for a system as follows: Abstract The design and maintenance of Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) platforms demand accurate global performance and structural analysis. Traditional...

..., and tower model was developed to support the offshore wind turbine. Both coupled and uncoupled dynamic analysis methods were applied to the analysis models. The dynamic turbine loads were calculated using wind turbine information from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Modal analyses were...

... Majority of the semi-submersible designs are spread moored with fairleads located at each column and using the conventional towers and turbines directly from the fixed offshore wind turbine to avoid any changes of the top structure arrangement.

... Abstract This paper provides an overview of the PISA design model recently developed for laterally loaded offshore wind turbine monopiles through a major European joint-industry academic research project, the PISA Project. The focus was on large diameter, relatively rigid piles, with low length...

... Abstract This paper describes the conceptual design and estimates the CAPEX breakdown of a novel floater type for offshore wind turbines: the Reduced-Draft Spar (RDS). This floater, which resembles a GBS although it is in essence a spar, has excellent seakeeping at a reduced draft. Aiming...
