Mean Wave Drift Forces on a Barge-Type Floating Wind Turbine Platform with Moonpools

Barge-type platforms with moonpools are a promising type of foundation for floating offshore wind turbines due to their good seakeeping performance. In this paper, the mean wave drift force on a barge-type vertical-axis floating wind turbine with multiple moonpools was investigated through physical...
