In this study, the effect of a 10MW DTU wind turbine (WT) on a semi-submersible platform is examined from the point of view of its dynamic behaviour as part of a mooring system with attached buoys. The platform has a rectangular geometry, and consists of four offset and one main cylindrical members. The structure is assumed to receive both wave and wind loading simultaneously. A coupled analysis within the frequency domain is performed using two boundary element method software packages, NEMOH and HAMS. The results are presented in the form of parametric graphs for each of the software packages used and for varying wave directions. The graphs show the hydrodynamic loads exerted on the platform, the wave elevation, the added masses, the hydrodynamic damping coefficients, the mooring line tensions, and the Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs) for the motion of the platform.
