A CFD Study of Vortex-Induced Motions of a Semi-Submersible Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

Vortex-induced motion (VIM) is a critical issue for floating structures made of one or more columns, due to its significant impacts on their operational stability. Supported by column-type floating platforms, floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) may also experience large-amplitude VIM responses i...
