Abstract: Abstract Amongst, the floating systems catering to the offshore wind energy, barge floater is the simplest structure but its limitation of application is constrained by its large motion. Mitigating these motions can help in efficient and economical production of energy. The present work focuses on the experiments conducted on a 1:50 scaled model of a barge without and with static Offshore Wind Turbine (OWT) with active gyrostabilizer ‘off’ and ‘on’ condition for regular and irregular waves for three different rpms. The roll responses we...
