Effect of Heave Plates on the Wave Motion of a Flexible Multicolumn FOWT

Effect of Heave Plates on the Wave Motion of a Flexible Multicolumn FOWT

Three models with different footing types were used to clarify the effect of heave plates on the hydrodynamic behavior of the elastic response of a flexible multicolumn floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT). The models were tested under regular waves, whose added mass, damping, and motion response r...
