The aerodynamics and near wake of an offshore floating horizontal axis wind turbine
Offshore floating wind turbines represent the future of wind energy. However, significant challenges must be overcome before these systems can be widely used. Because of the dynamics of offshore floating wind turbines—surge, sway, heave, roll, pitch, and yaw—and the resulting interactions between th...
