Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework
Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 682-700, February 2026.ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...

Physical modeling of local scour development around a large-diameter monopile in combined waves and current [PDF]
, 2014 In most of the previous studies on local scour around pile foundations, wave-induced pore pressure response has not been taken into account. The local-scour and pore-pressure responses around a large-diameter monopile in combined waves and current have ...

Model Tests on Cyclic Responses of a Laterally Loaded Pile Considering Sand Anisotropy and Scouring
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Monopile is a common foundation for offshore wind turbines. Long-term cyclic loading from winds and currents may affect the normal operation of offshore wind turbines.

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 1430-1450, 25 February 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigates the bearing capacity of tension piles and pile‐soil interaction during loading. Discrepancies between predicted and measured bearing capacities in previous tests motivated the study, where analytical methods showed considerable scatter and uncertainties in design.

Idealized Offshore Low‐Level Jets for Turbine Structural Impact Considerations
Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Low‐level jets (LLJs) describe conditions in which the wind speed reaches a local maximum with respect to altitude near the surface; they have been observed intermittently in the US mid‐Atlantic offshore environment. LLJs pose unique operating conditions for future wind turbines operating in the region, such as negative shear and locally ...

Installation of Large-Diameter Monopiles: Introducing Wave Dispersion and Non-Local Soil Reaction
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 During the last decade the offshore wind industry grew ceaselessly and engineering challenges continuously arose in that area. Installation of foundation piles, known as monopiles, is one of the most critical phases in the construction of offshore wind ...

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Extensive offshore renewable energy installations have raised concerns about their environmental impacts. These concerns highlight the need for high fidelity modeling of conditions within wind‐farm regions, where wave–structure interactions through reflection, diffraction, and dissipation reshape local and regional wave dynamics, thereby ...

Entire Monopile Foundation Removal
, 2021 In the European seas 5202 turbines have been installed or are under construction. The vast majority, 4474, are built on monopile foundations. It is expected that all these foundations eventually need to be decommissioned. For the decommissioning of these
