This project will design a mobile offshore platform (MOP) to support wind powered generators. The platform will maximize platform stability through use of passive means consisting of drift panels and use a multi section platform using rotating and hinged connections between the wind generator platform and floats. The MOP will also include an active positioning system to maintain platform station within a 25 radius. This systems will include GPS sensors and the control system for platform movement and orientation. The MOP will be scalable.
