Low-uncertainty wave tank testing and validation of numerical methods for floating offshore wind turbines

<p>Accurate simulation of the loads and motions of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) in operation is key to the commercialisation of this technology. To improve such load predictions, a critical assessment of the capabilities and limitations of simulation methods for FOWTs is mandatory....
