N2 - As part of the ongoing development of the Stiesdal Offshore A/S TetraSub floating offshore wind turbine generator (WTG) platform, this study investigates wave run-up acting on the front cylindrical ballast tanks. Using experimental results from a recent test campaign of a TetraSub variant 1:50 scale model, this work aims to review existing semi-empirical methods for predicting wave run-up. Moreover, for the defined eight regular wave test cases, predicted theoretical values are compared to the measured values recorded during tank experiments. The outcomes from this investigation will contribute to modelling methods used within future front-end engineering design (FEED) and detailed design stages of floating platforms, in order to develop robust and cost-effective solutions.
