Dynamic response of a floating offshore wind turbine structure to extreme wave loading in nonlinear, directional seas KU Leuven
Notwithstanding the present-day oil prices, the large amounts of greenhouse gases set free by burning fossil fuels, have already a tremendous impact on the weather extremes. As further climate change endangers our societies, the transition to renewables must be fast. Due to its high resource availability and high technology maturity, offshore wind remains the most promising to facilitate this transition. As offshore wind turbines are ...
