Influence of soil–structure modelling techniques on offshore wind turbine monopile structural response

open access: yesWind Energy, 2022
The importance of appropriate offshore wind turbine (OWT) monopile structural modelling technique cannot be overstated in the successful design and installation of a new generation of larger and heavier structures to deliver the increasing capacity ...

Bearing Capacity of Tension Steel Piles in Thinly Inter‐Layered Soils: Numerical Class‐A Prediction vs. Field Measurements

open access: yesInternational 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

open access: yesWind 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 ...

A Subgrid‐Scale Parameterization of Wave‐Structure Interactions for Spectral Wave Models: Idealized Simulations in Offshore Wind Farm Conditions

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

A Quality‐Driven Framework for Local Fatigue‐Strength Assessment of Wind–Energy Structures Considering Size Effects

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Reliability, safety, and the lifetime of wind energy systems are mainly driven by the quality of each single component. Especially, large structures made of cast material or welded structures, such as the nacelle, the machine carrier, or the tower, are subjected to cyclic loading.

Lateral Ultimate Capacity of Monopile Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines: Effects of Monopile Geometry and Soil Stiffness Properties

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Offshore Wind Turbines (OWT) with increasingly higher energy output are being developed to meet energy demands, posing greater challenges for their foundation design. Several foundation types are used to support these turbines, with monopiles (MPs) accounting for 80% of the installed capacity.
