Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are the largest rotating structures on the earth. Dynamically sensitive structures such as these must be protected in these environments to …
In addition to a carbon-neutral vision being recognized worldwide, the utilization of wind energies via horizontal-axis wind turbines, especially in offshore areas, has been intensively …
Recent years have seen a renewed interest in rotary-wing aircraft, due to the emergence of urban air mobility. In the conceptual design of such aircraft, fast estimation of rotor …
The fore‐aft motion of the rotor‐nacelle assembly (RNA) of a rotating floating wind turbine (FWT) can cause an oscillation in aerodynamic thrust, which may be equivalently treated as …
The stochastic platform motions of a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) significantly affect its load characteristics and power production. It is vital to understand the influence of various …
This paper presents the first blind prediction stage of the Tidal Turbine Benchmarking Project being conducted and funded by the UK's EPSRC and Supergen ORE Hub. In this …
A coaxial turbine under skew with significant rotor spacing has the potential for increased power output compared to a flow-aligned turbine due to a portion of the downstream rotor …
This paper presents a slender-body approximation to evaluate the first-and second-order wave loads acting on a floating structure comprised of slender cylinders. It combines …
