An efficient frequency-domain model for quick load analysis of floating offshore wind turbines
A model for Quick Load Analysis of Floating wind turbines (QuLAF) is presented and validated here.The model is a linear, frequency-domain, moen finney efficient tool with four planar degrees of freedom: floater surge, heave, pitch and first tower modal deflection.The model relies on state-of-the-art tools from which hydrodynamic, aerodynamic and mo
