# Regarding a Structural Model For a Wind Turbine Tower. I am a Masters student doing my thesis on wind turbine structural analysis, specifically on wind turbine towers. I obtained geometry from a wind farm operator for a 6 MW wind turbine tower. I started with a modal analysis, and I got the first side-to-side mode about 0.146 HZ while the one at the site is about 0.145 hZ, makes me think my model is somehow reasonable. I calculated the wind loads on the tower and for the blades I used the thrust force equation i.e. the actuator disk. The problem arises when i apply this thrust force as a point load on my wind turbine tower, as I get a deflection of about 2.5 meters, which is definietely not realisitic. Are you modeling a wind turbine that is similar to one of the reference wind turbines, such as the NREL 5-MW baseline wind turbine?
