Description

The focus of this bilateral initiative is the numerical modelling of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT). However, FOWTs are complex nonlinear systems, with a coupled hydro-aero-structural response, which is difficult to model in a cost-efficient optimization process.

The objectives of this BI are: (1) to increase the knowledge on numerical simulations of FOWTs; (2) to disseminate this knowledge; and (3) to involve additional partners to pre-form a consortium on this topic.

An interim exchange of staff from Blue Ocean Sustainable Solutions to SINTEF Ocean will be organised to discuss progress
