Preprint of the OC6 paper
The preprint for the OC6 paper is now out. OC6 is a comparison between different codes for simulation of offshore wind turbines. This time it was a comparison of remodeling of experimental results from the TetraSpar platform performed in the UMaine labs in 2019. The paper is available at this address: https://wes.copernicus.org/preprints/wes-2023-103/, and I will…

Modeling of a 15MW Floating wind turbine on a concrete platform
In January 2022 we presented an interesting paper on a comparison of the response of a floating wind turbine installed on a concrete platform. Comparisons between HAWC2 and Orcaflex showed a substantial agreement. The platform was stable at the survival conditions (DLC 6.1) and no significant resonance was observed for a production case (DLC 1.6).…
