    A Time-Domain Irregular Wave Model with Different Random Numbers for FOWT Support Structures

    Shen-Haw Ju*, Yi-Chen Huang

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.144, No.2, pp. 1631-1654, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.067679 - 31 August 2025

    Abstract This study focuses on determining the second-order irregular wave loads in the time domain without using the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT). Considering the substantial displacement effects that Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) support structures undergo when subjected to wave loads, the time-domain wave method is more suitable, while the frequency-domain method requiring IFFT cannot be used for moving bodies. Nonetheless, the computational challenges posed by the considerable computer time requirements of the time-domain wave method remain a significant obstacle. Thus, the paper incorporates various numerical schemes, including parallel computing and extrapolation of wave forces… More >

    A Review of Research Status and Scientific Problems of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines

    Zhen Lei1, Xinbao Wang2,*, Shuni Zhou3, Zekun Wang2, Tengyuan Wang2, Yingjian Yang2

    Energy Engineering, Vol.119, No.1, pp. 123-143, 2022, DOI:10.32604/EE.2022.016034 - 22 November 2021

    Abstract With the continuous utilization of offshore wind resources, the installation depth and capacity of offshore wind turbines are increasing. In order to meet construction requirements of renewable energy, offshore wind farms are bound to develop further and deeper into the sea. As a result, a novel kind of power generation equipment, Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT), emerges as the times require. Consequently, this paper provides an objective comment on some key scientific difficulties. Firstly, The statistics and forecast of the market demand and installed capacity of offshore wind energy show a steady growth. After that,… More >
