    • Rational upscaling of a semi-submersible floating platform supporting a wind turbine 

      Leimester, Mareike; Bachynski, Erin Elizabeth; Muskulus, Michael; Thomas, Philipp (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      This work examines the procedure of upscaling of a semi-submersible platform in order to support a predefined wind turbine. As a result of technological progress and design changes, basic scaling based on the turbine rating ...
    • Validation of Numerical Wave Tank Simulations Using REEF3D With JONSWAP Spectra in Intermediate Water Depth 

      Pakozdi, Csaba; Fouques, Sebastien; Thys, Maxime; Kamath, Arun Mulky; Wang, Weizhi; Hoseini Dadmarzi, Fatemeh; Bachynski, Erin Elizabeth; Bihs, Hans Sebastian (;Paper No: OMAE2020-18298, V001T01A012, Chapter, 2020)
      As offshore wind turbines increase in size and output, the support structures are also growing. More sophisticated assessment of the hydrodynamic loads is needed, particularly for the ultimate limit state design. For ...
