Abstract

The semi-integrated analysis method was used extensively in the design of offshore wind turbine in China. Recent researches have proved that the wave loads and sub-structure responses have significant effects on the aerodynamic loads of the blades especially in the operation conditions. In order to take these effects for OWT design into account, the fully coupled analysis method was presented. Using Fortran language, a FAST-SACS joint analysis module was developed to carry out time history verification of internal forces of sub-structure member. The comparisons between fully couple and semi-integrated analysis method are performed.
