Literature relating to offshore wind energy generation is produced at a significant rate as research efforts are diverted to the emerging area of future clean energy. this paper presents an overview of recent research in the specific area of floating offshore structure design for wind energy. earlier literature has broadly grouped these platforms into three categories based on their source of. However, floating platforms for wind turbines are still at an early stage of development, and there are a wide range of platform designs. this paper reviews the current state of the art of floating offshore wind turbine platform designs which currently have or have previously had a prototype, demonstration, or farm scale project at sea.
Throughout the paper, we will deal with a specific floating offshore horizontal axis wind turbine called nrel 5.0 mw baseline wind turbine which is implemented in the software fast developed at. 1 introduction. the platform is an essential element of floating offshore wind turbines. eventually, it is the motions and loads due to the moving platform that separates the floating wind turbines from fixed bottom structures. this chapter presents an outlook on the platforms and aims to provide information on floater characteristics.
