Modeling Monopile Scour in a Tidal-Dominated Coastal Sea: a GFD-CFD coupled framework and real-world application

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics
Local scour around monopile foundations poses a critical challenge for offshore wind turbines in tidal–dominated coastal seas, where hydrodynamics span multiple scales from kilometre-scale tidal currents to metre-scale horseshoe vortices.

Seismic Response of OWT Monopile in Clays

open access: yes
AbstractThe safe and stable operation of monopile offshore wind turbines (MOWTs) under seismic and environmental loading is a major challenge facing designers. A numerical method was developed for simulating the dynamic interaction of the soil-pile-structure system by employing an elastoplastic bounding surface constitutive model that can capture the ...

Centrifuge modelling of offshore monopile foundation

open access: yes, 2010
Today one of the most used concepts for wind turbine foundation is the monopile. The foundation concepts for these monopiles on deeper water is uncertain and consequently the design needs to be conservative leading to uneconomic designs. This paper describes a total number of 6 static and 5 cyclic centrifuge tests on a laterally loaded monopile in dry ...
