Over the past decade, there has been rapid increase in the offshore wind turbine installations. The future installations will see a progression from shallow to deep waters. It …
Phase I of the OC6 project is focused on examining why offshore wind design tools underpredict the response (loads/motion) of the OC5-DeepCwind semisubmersible at its …
Numerous sensors have been deployed in different locations in components of wind turbines to continuously monitor the health status of the turbine system and accordingly …
Due to the abundant wind energy in deep water, floating offshore wind turbines (FWTs), especially for the semisubmersible FWTs, have attracted more attention these years. To …
In the OC5 and OC6 2 projects, the authors observed a persistent underprediction of the nonlinear, low-frequency responses of an offshore wind semisubmersible with many mid …

Offshore wind energy is expanding globally and new floating wind turbine technology now allows wind energy developments in areas previously too deep for fixed-platform turbines …
During the previous OC5 1 1 project, state-of-the-art mid-fidelity engineering tools for floating wind systems were found to consistently underpredict the nonlinear, low-frequency …
As floating wind turbines (FWTs) increase in size and power, the relative contribution of wave and wind loads to their global responses differs from what has been observed for 5–10 …
