A fully-coupled aero-hydro-net-mooring time-domain model is constructed by coupling AQWA and FAST with open-source code F2A, initially used for preliminary analysis of a turret-moored deep-sea aquaculture vessel powered by wind energy. Due to wind-wave complementarity at the site, an optimal point absorber is employed to suppress motion around energetic wave periods, particularly near the vessel’s heave and pitch natural periods. A framework for detailed analysis of the deep-sea aquaculture vessel with hybrid wind-wave power generation is then established in the time domain, with results compared to preliminary frequency domain findings. Fifteen environmental conditions, including steady and turbulent winds, regular and irregular waves, and extreme scenarios representing 50- and 100-year return periods in the Northern Bohai Sea, are considered. The study verifies the rationality of the internal turret mooring system and the point absorber, providing detailed guidance for mooring design by analyzing mooring dynamics. This research focuses on deep-sea aquaculture vessels and hybrid wind-wave energy systems, emphasizing the complex coupling effects between them.
