Computational Analysis of Platform Motion and Wave Effects on the Aerodynamics and Wake of the IEA 22 MW Floating Wind Turbine

<div class="section abstract"> <div class="htmlview paragraph">This study investigates the unsteady aerodynamic response, wake evolution, and vortex dynamics of an ultra-large floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) under coupled motion–wave conditions. A high-fidelity aero–hydrodynamic CFD model is employed for the IEA 22 MW reference turbine. Platform pitch and surge motions are prescribed via sinusoidal functions, and wave conditions are independently introduced by considering two r
