The objective is to develop improved methodologies to determine coastal metocean conditions using consistent open access hindcasts of atmospheric and oceanic parameters, in order to reduce and quantify uncertainties in the environmental description for design basis.
The objective of WP3 is to identify, develop, and apply multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) strategies which are appropriate for novel floating marine structures.
designer can easily explore or experiment with different concepts for a given site,
The innovation objective is to support developers of novel ocean structures, by bringing together industry experts and research communities to discuss and solve complex technical issues. The scientific objective is to identify and understand technology and knowledge needs, and to convert these into research activities that can be addressed and pursued by the other WPs.
