The Effect of Lateral Loading Parameters on Monopile Behavior Based on Physical Modeling

open access: yesنشریه مهندسی دریا, 2019
Monopiles are the most common type of foundation for offshore wind turbines (OWT). Monopiles have been used in more than 80% of the offshore wind turbines.

Numerical Simulation and Tests of Lateral Bearing Capacity of Sloped Offshore Monopile Under Vertical Load and Lateral Cyclic Load

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Offshore monopile foundations endure complex loads during service. They bear vertical loads from the superstructure’s self-weight and lateral cyclic loads (e.g., wind, waves), while near-coastal seabeds are usually sloped.

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.

Study the placement of wind turbines on floating platforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The need to generate electricity seeking an alternative to nuclear energy is required to develop new energy systems. For this, one of the most ambition plans to occupy the open ground that we have in the sea, to implement new technologies to generate ...

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 ...

Qualifying and quantifying offshore wind farm-generated noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The construction, operation and dismantling of offshore wind farms generate noise both above and under water that may be of environmental concern. The maximum detected sound power level of the above water pin piling noise for example, reached 145 dB(A ...
