Uncertainty in the Physical Testing of Floating Wind Energy Platforms’ Accuracy versus Precision

This paper examines the impact on experimental uncertainty of introducing aerodynamic and rotor gyroscopic loading on a model multirotor floating wind energy platform during physical testing. In addition, a methodology and a metric are presented for the assessment of the uncertainty across the full...
