Substructure Optimization for a Semi-Submersible Floating Wind Turbine Under Extreme Environmental Conditions

Substructure Optimization for a Semi-Submersible Floating Wind Turbine Under Extreme Environmental Conditions

A barrier to the adoption of floating offshore wind turbines is their high cost relative to conventional fixed-bottom wind turbines. The largest contributor to this cost disparity is generally the floating substructure, due to its large size and complexity. Typically, a primary driver of the geometr...
