Abstract:The present paper describes the coupling between two open source software packages, OpenFAST and FRyDoM (named FRyFAST), dedicated to the floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) dynamics simulation. FRyDoM (Flexible and Rigid body Dynamic modelling for Marine operations) is a multi-body and multi-physics framework, mainly dedicated to complex offshore systems, developed by D-ICE Engineering and Ecole Centrale Nantes. This framework is coupled with OpenFAST in order to simulate FOWT with advanced platform system,… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
