Jernej Drofelnik has made significant contributions to the field of offshore wind energy through their research on floating wind turbines. Their work encompasses multi-fidelity analyses, high-fidelity calculations, and computational fluid dynamics studies of rotor loads, power, and aerodynamics under various conditions, including pitching motion and severe weather scenarios. By leveraging Navier-Stokes CFD and other analytical methods, Drofelnik has provided valuable insights into the performance, stability, and uncertainty quantification of floating wind turbines, shedding light on critical design and optimization challenges. These findings have broad implications for the development and deployment of floating offshore wind farms, enabling more efficient and reliable energy production.
