Yaw-Control Optimization for Floating Wind Farms Considering Platform Repositioning

Wake losses constrain power capture in deep-offshore floating wind farms. Unlike fixed-bottom turbines, yaw control in floating turbines changes both wake propagation and aerodynamic thrust; the resulting platform repositioning further alters wake overlap. To investigate the coup...

Dynamic Response Analysis of IEA 15 MW FOWT Under Extreme Focused Wave–Wind Conditions Based on Multi-Region Coupled Method

This study employs a multi-region coupled method to investigate the motion responses and aerodynamic load variations of the IEA 15 MW semi-submersible floating wind turbine (FOWT) under extreme focused wave conditions. The methodology employs the self-developed MRFoam solver with...
