Mooring systems are critical sub-systems for floating offshore wind turbines and innovative nonlinear technologies have the potential to reduce peak loads and cut cost. The Intelligent Mooring System (IMS) is a large diameter braided sleeve surrounding a hydraulic reservoir, which acts as a ‘hydraulic muscle’ – stretching and contracting in response to external forces – […]
