Real-time hybrid model testing of a semi-submersible 10mw floating wind turbine and advances in the test method
Real-time hybrid model testing of a braceless semi-submersible wind turbine. Part II: Experimental results
Real-Time Hybrid Model (ReaTHM) tests of a braceless semi-submersible wind turbine were carried out at MARINTEK’s Ocean Basin in 2015. The tests sought to evaluate the performance of the floating wind turbine (FWT) structure in environmental conditions representative of the Northern North Sea. In...
Real-time hybrid model testing of a braceless semi-submersible wind turbine. Part I: The hybrid approach
This article presents a method for performing Real-Time Hybrid Model testing (ReaTHM testing) of a floating wind turbine (FWT). The advantage of this method compared to the physical modelling of the wind in an ocean basin, is that it solves the Froude-Reynolds scaling conflict, which is a key issue...

Experimental Results on Motion Regulation in High Speed Marine Vessels
A design procedure of an active ride control system (RCS) for regulating the roll and pitch motions of a high speed marine vessel is presented. In order to achieve high quality passenger comfort and reduce the seasickness it is necessary to counterbalance the excessive pitch and roll motions using...
