Abstract

The article discusses parametric studies for various shape designs of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT). Topics addressed include a wind truss spar type shale with damper structure aimed at reducing motion and acceleration responses, the spar type semi-submersible structure's heave motion performance, and its water depth limitations of installation. Also mentioned are the use of the 9-node higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM) and motion and acceleration at Nacelle responses.
