In this paper a multi-body system of barge type wind turbine under stochastic wave and wind has been modeled within MSC ADAMS. For wind loading, the stochastic turbulent wind data have been extracted using TurbSim software.Also, the AeroDyn module has been used for calculating lift and drag forces on the blades of turbine.. The hydrodynamic loads have been calculated using HydroDyn module within time domain. It composed of hydrostatic restoring nonlinear viscous drag from incident wave kinematics the added mass and damping contributions from linear wave radiation, including free surface memory effects and the incident wave excitation. By linking these modules with ADAMS/Solver milieu, the time domain, aero-hydro-elastic simulation of Barge type wind turbines has been achieved. The derived results have been compared with FAST’s outputs. The comparison shows the prosperity and accuracy of implemented analysis. The generality of analysis ensures that the simulation tool is applicable for any other types of the wind turbine, floating support platform, and mooring system configurations.
