An Application of Distributed Simulation for Hybrid Modeling of Offshore Wind Farms

摘要

The work in progress paper presents a case study on M&S of offshore wind farms. Two simulation models have been developed, an agent-based model and a discrete-event model, with the former modeling turbine failures using a degradation function and the latter modeling the Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) strategies. The models have been implemented in NetLogo and Simul8 respectively. In this paper we present ongoing work in hybrid simulation which uses the IEEE 1516 HLA standard for distributed simulation for synchronized model execution and dynamic information exchange between the agent-based and the discrete-event models.
