Abstract
⺠Nonlinear coupled analysis of tension leg platform wind turbines (TLPWTs). ⺠5 baseline single column designs and 40 variations were analyzed and compared. ⺠Changes in dimensions, ballast, and water depth affected structural loads. ⺠Out-of-plane motions were critical for TLPWT designs with small displacement. ⺠Tower and tendon loads were more design-dependent than blade loads.
