... enables quayside assembly, one piece tow-out and self-installation without using a heavy lift vessel. After the floating wind turbine is assembled at the quay, it will be towed to the offshore wind farm site for installation. Resistance and motion performance are crucial for the safety of wind turbines...

... concepts in terms of performance, and its advantages of good stability, good motion performance, and low cost were summarized, providing guidance for the design of floating foundations for large capacity wind turbines. INTRODUCTION The International Energy Agency estimates global offshore wind...

... with built in ballast water tanks, which can adjust the platform draft for easy transportation. Moreover, the column boot can be considered a specialized large motion suppression structure, similar to a damping plate at the bottom of the cylindrical platform, which enhances the motion performance...

..., the severe phenomenon of wave impact and green water, etc. should restrict its application. Motion performance of the slender ship-shaped FPSO is very sensitive to the wave direction, and the FPSO has an oversized transverse area against wave. Furthermore, it is very difficult for its heave natural period...

... ABSTRACT The motion performance of the soft yoke mooring FPSO system in shallow water is investigated. Both numerical simulations and experiments are performed to model the soft yoke mooring of an FPSO. A time-domain algorithm based on Cummins impulse response technique is used to calculate...

... with slightly increased draft are compared and the comparison demonstrates that the EDP design is superior in motion performance while maintaining a high hull efficiency comparable to that of conventional semisubmersibles. In addition to better motion performance, the new EDP design is shown to offer other...

... ABSTRACT In shallow water, the motion performance of a single point moored 320 kDWT FPSO is investigated in 100-year environment conditions with different water depths. The ratios of the water depths to the draft are within the range from 1.3 to 1.1. Both numerical calculation and experimental...
