OC4 P2 LC3.7 RAO estimation, with wind

Previous pageNext page

This load case is similar to OC4 P2 LC2.6, which does not include wind loading. Generally speaking, the comparisons presented here are very similar also.

Flexcom input files are available for this load case and simulations results are available in the form of random time histories. These need to be converted to RAOs (response amplitude operators) or PSDs (power-spectral densities) before results from Flexcom may be compared to official results from OC4. Once this process is complete, RAO/PSD comparisons will be uploaded here, including:

Wave height

Tower Base Moment

Fairlead Tension in Mooring Line 2

Platform surge

Platform heave

Platform pitch
