The modelling of FOWT forms a critical stage of the design process, as it allows a fully coupled dynamic assessment of the response of the concept while accounting for blade-rotor dynamics, support structure motions and mooring dynamics. For both new and for existing concepts, modelling offers the potential to test, in controlled environments, a series of assumptions and scenarios at a relatively minor cost. Two fundamental modelling approaches can be followed: Numerical and experimental.
