N2 - In this paper, numerical modelling and analysis of a hybrid-spar floating wind turbine is presented. The hybrid-spar consists of steel at the upper part and the precast prestressed concrete (PC) at the lower part. Such a configuration is referred to as a hybrid-spar in this paper. The hybrid spar was successfully installed offshore of Kabashima Island, Goto city, Nagasaki prefecture, Japan on October 18, 2013 (see OMAE2015-41544 [1] for details). In this paper, some details on numerical modelling of the hybrid-spar for design load analysis are presented. Then, the validation of the numerical analysis model is presented for a full-scale hybrid-spar model with 2-MW wind turbine.
