Pitch Damping, Mooring Reposition — Same Kind of Control?

Adding closed-loop pitch damping and a mooring-reposition solver to the FOWT digital twin, and examining why one is genuinely feedback control and the other isn't.

Who Runs Your Simulation When You're Not a Simulation Engineer?

Wrapping a floating wind turbine co-simulation in three tools and handing them to an LLM — plain-language prompts run the real FMU, plot results, and report whether the mooring held, on a free-tier model.

It Moves Now — Dynamic Mooring in 6DOF

A full 6DOF Modelica MultiBody floating turbine model, exported as an FMU and driven from Python under wind and wave loading, comparing the analytical catenary against Part 1's ONNX surrogate.

One Line. Four Models. Which One, and When?

Benchmarking four mooring models — analytical catenary, FEM, Guyan reduction, and an ONNX surrogate — against the OC4 DeepCwind platform, from sub-millisecond to full finite-element solves.
