OWT-14 Coupled analysis of floating offshore wind in Sima

This course focuses on the coupled analysis of floating offshore wind using Sesam.

Description

This course focuses on the time domain coupled analysis of floating offshore wind, including the modelling of wind turbine, tower, foundation and mooring system and the calculation of the motions and forces under wind, wave and current. 

In this course, Sima is used as the general GUI and platform, supported by solver Riflex and Simo.

Learning scope

The following topics will be covered: 

  • Define environments of wind, waves and current  
  • Import and define the foundation  
  • Create and define wind turbine, tower, and mooring system  
  • Set up coupled analysis and execution 
  • Export results for subsequent analysis 
  • Create variables and use scripting  
  • Results post-processing, workflow, and report generation 

The exercise is based on a floating offshore wind in semi-submersible type.

Target group

Engineers involved in design, analysis, or verification of floating offshore wind.

Duration:

2 days

Prerequisite

It is required that the participants are familiar with hydrodynamic analysis.  

It is beneficial that the participants have attended OWT-11 Hydrodynamic analysis of floating offshore wind - frequency domain or have similar experience.
