Wave Loads on Monopile Structures

open access: yes, 2017
This article compares different approaches to determine the design forces and moments for the ultimate limit state for monopile structures for offshore wind turbines. The principles of the different approaches are explained. Four different methods, i.e.

Buckling Instability of Monopiles in Liquefied Soil via Structural Reliability Assessment Framework

open access: yesInfrastructures
During devastating earthquakes, soil liquefaction has disastrous outcomes on bridge foundations, as mentioned in books and published research. To avoid foundation failure when the surrounding soil is fully liquefied, a bridge’s pile foundation design ...

PISA: Recent Developments in Offshore Wind Turbine Monopile Design

open access: yes, 2018
This paper provides a brief overview of the Pile Soil Analysis (PISA) project, recently completed in the UK. The research was aimed at developing new design methods for laterally loaded monopile foundations, such as those supporting offshore wind turbine structures.

Parametric Investigation of p-y Curves for Improving the Design of Large Diameter Monopiles for Offshore Renewable Energy Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study establishes a direct and quantitative link between field-scale monopile behavior, three-dimensional finite element (FE) modeling, and practical p-y curve formulations for large-diameter offshore monopiles.
