Harmonic linearisation of aerodynamic loads in a frequency‐domain model of a floating wind turbine

Abstract While detailed aero‐servo‐hydro‐elastic simulation codes for modelling floating wind turbines (FWTs) are available, they achieve high accuracy at the expense of calculation speed. For conceptual design and optimisation, fast solutions are needed, and equivalent linearisation techniques comb...
