Thesis type MASTER THESIS

Description Airborne systems present an interesting scenario in onshore conditions due to their already demonstrated significant potential. Furthermore, the need to minimise extensive development of onshore infrastructure, coupled with the opportunity to harness even greater potential akin to traditional wind generators, is prompting a shift towards exploring offshore conditions for airborne systems. Unlike the onshore design of the operational ground base for these technologies, designing for offshore conditions is considerably more complex due to the hostile marine environment.

The candidate will conduct a thorough analysis of the hydrodynamic properties of floaters, assessing how such factors impact the overall system response. Consequently, the candidate is expected to identify and parameterise a promising geometry, aiming to establish a cost-effective geometry scenario.
