Design and analysis of a shared mooring system for a dual-spar floating offshore wind farm
Al-Abtah, Mohammad Ali (Master thesis, 2023)In order to lower mooring costs, this master's thesis examines the technical and economic feasibility of a shared mooring system for a dual-spar Floating Offshore Wind Farm (FOWF) in the North Sea area. The suggested ... -
Dynamic analysis of a dual-spar floating offshore wind farm with shared moorings in extreme environmental conditions
Liang, Guodong; Jiang, Zhiyu; Merz, Karl Otto (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The concept of a shared mooring system was proposed to reduce mooring and anchoring costs. Shared moorings also add complexity to the floating offshore wind farm system and pose design challenges. To understand the system ... -
Experimental comparison of a dual-spar floating wind farm with shared mooring against a single floating wind turbine under wave conditions
Lopez-Olocco, Tomas; Liang, Guodong; Medina-Manuel, Antonio; Ynocente, Leandro Saavedra; Jiang, Zhiyu; Souto-Iglesias, Antonio (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Shared mooring can potentially be a cost-reduction factor for future floating wind farms. To assess the effect of shared mooring on the response dynamics of floating wind turbines (FWTs), experiments have been conducted ... -
Experimental investigation of two shared mooring configurations for a dual-spar floating offshore wind farm in irregular waves
Liang, Guodong; Lopez-Olocco, Tomas; Medina-Manuel, Antonio; Saavedra-Ynocente, Leandro Antonio; Souto-Iglesias, Antonio; Jiang, Zhiyu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Shared mooring brings potential cost benefits to a floating wind farm. In such a wind farm, adjacent floaters are connected by shared lines and the total number of mooring lines is reduced. This paper presents an experimental ... -
Influence of Aerodynamic Loads on a Dual-Spar Floating Offshore Wind Farm With a Shared Line in Parked Conditions
Liang, Guodong; Jiang, Zhiyu; Merz, Karl Otto (Chapter, 2022)The concept of a shared mooring system, in which adjacent wind turbines are coupled by sharing mooring lines, has been proposed to reduce the mooring costs of floating offshore wind farms. This work investigates the influence ... -
Model test of a dual-spar floating wind farm in regular waves
Jiang, Zhiyu; Liang, Guodong; Lopez-Olocco, Tomas; Medina-Manuel, Antonio; Saavedra-Ynocente, L.A.; Souto-Iglesias, Antonio (Chapter, 2023)A floating wind farm with shared moorings has the potential to reduce capital expenditure but may face structural dynamics issues. We selected a prototype wind farm that consists of two spar floating wind turbines with ... -

Numerical and Experimental Study of Shared Mooring Systems for Prototype Floating Wind Farms
Liang, Guodong (Doctoral dissertations at the University of Agder;no. 431, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Conventional mooring systems represent a substantial portion of the cost of a floating offshore wind farm (FOWF). The concept of shared mooring was initially proposed to reduce the overall usage of mooring lines and the ...
