Abstract

Focusing on the motion response of the quadrant-bucket foundation of taut-moored wind turbines under wave loads, this paper conducts regular wave-structure interaction experiments using a small-scale physical model to systematically analyze the influence laws of water depth, draft, and anchorage distance on the motion response of the quadrant-bucket foundation. The results show that： with the increase of water depth, the heave motion response of the structure is suppressed; with the increase of draft, the surge and pitch motion responses of the structure increase, while the heave motion response decreases; with the increase of anchorage distance, the heave and pitch motion responses of the structure increase, while the surge motion decreases during the slow-drift response phase.

Key words
