Assessment of Hydrodynamic Loads on an Offshore Monopile Structure Considering Hydroelasticity Effects

Regular and irregular waves were numerically generated in a wave canal to investigate hydrodynamic loads acting on a wind turbine monopile and to predict its structural response. The monopile was implemented in the canal and modeled as a flexible structure, with the turbine blades and rotors conside...
