Abstract
  • Given the immense energy potential of oshore wind and ocean waves, offshore renewable energy can significantly contribute to the renewable energy landscape. Fixed floating wind is already making strides internationally with increased electricity capacity, while floating offshore wind turbines and marine hydrokinetic (MHK) technology have significant potential that can aid in powering maritime applications and contribute to the larger electricity grid. One of the inherent challenges of floating wind and MHK technology are their associated costs. However, using computational tools to aid in the design, validation, and optimization of such technology can help lower costs associated with research and development. Three studies are presented implementing the use of computational modeling to aid in understanding oshore renewable energy technologies. The first utilizes computational modeling to verify the ability to model an array of wave energy converters (WECs) in the Matlab toolbox WEC-Sim. The second study provides initial results into a case study investigating the coupled optimization of size and control of a point absorber WEC. The third study investigates the use of a surrogate model for supporting a hybrid computational/physical prototype of a floating offshore wind turbine. Each study demonstrates how computational modeling can aid in the advancement of the design of oshore renewable energy systems.
