Wind power tower coupling model

What is the coupling kinetics model of a floating wind turbine?

The aero-hydro-servo-structure-TMDs coupling kinetics model of the floating wind turbine is established in the first place. In the coupled model, the blade element momentum theory (BEMT) with the aerodynamic corrections is used to calculate the aerodynamic loads [48, 49]. The Morison’s equation is applied to simulate the hydrodynamic loads .

Should a fully coupled wind turbine model be used in vibration control research?

Therefore, a fully coupled wind turbine model should be adopted in vibration control research to study the effectiveness of the proposed control method more accurately.

Does a platform-tower-TMD coupling rigid-body model reduce vibration?

In recent years, our research group established a platform-tower-TMD coupling rigid-body model of the barge floating wind turbine. The vibration reduction effects of TMD located in the platform and nacelle have been studied.

Can multiple tuned mass dampers reduce the vibration of offshore wind turbine towers?

Zuo et al. [ 15] proposed multiple tuned mass dampers (MTMDs) to reduce the vibration of offshore wind turbine towers under parked conditions. The results showed that MTMDs can effectively control vibrations from the fundamental and higher modes of offshore wind turbine tower under the multihazards of the wind, wave, and earthquake.
