Effects of Spilling and Plunging Type Breaking Waves Acting on Large Monopile Offshore Wind Turbines

In the present paper, the computational fluid dynamics method is used to investigate the effects of breaking wave loads on a 10-MW large-scale monopile offshore wind turbine under typical sea conditions in the eastern seas of China. Based on Fifth-Order Stokes wave theory a user-defined function is...
