A dynamic model of a wind turbine tower is established to investigate its dynamic responses under wind and earthquake loads. Then a generalized global spatial discretization method is used to solve the problem. Modal analysis of the wind turbine tower is conducted using the dynamic model and the results are verified by shell models and beam models established in the commercial FE software ANSYS and...
