This Master thesis is focussed in the verification of the capabilities of SeaFEM - FAST tool to carry out the fully coupled analysis of offshore wind turbines. First, a state of art of fully coupled analysis is presented. Then, rules to clasify and to certificate offshore wind turbines is studied. Design load conditions for OC3- Hywind NREL 5 MW Baseline are computed.
