Xu, P. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author)The present research analyzes the nonlinear fluid–structure interaction (FSI) of free surface waves with large-scale polymer offshore floating photovoltaics (LPOFPV). The floating structure is modeled as a nonlinear Euler Bernoulli–von Kármán (EBVK) beam coupling with water beneath. The EBVK theory takes the in-plane force into consideration to...journal article 2022

Xu, P. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author)This paper concerns the fully nonlinear fluid–structure interaction (FSI) of Large-scale floating photovoltaics (LFPV) in waves. The Euler Bernoulli–von Kármán beam models the structure while potential flow represents the fluid. A set of coupled dynamical equations is established. The fully analytic solution is sought with the unified Stokes...journal article 2022
