Abstract

A novel concept for offshore floating wind turbines (Deep Wind) was presented by the authors in [1].This paper deals with new developments of the novel concept.Three configurations, each with different degrees of freedom, have been selected to be presented in this paper.The first configuration, characterized by the lowest number of degrees of freedom, is investigated by an aero-elastic code.
