Tsunami-induced scour around monopile foundations [PDF]
Abstract A fully-coupled (hydrodynamic and morphologic) numerical model is presented, and utilized for the simulation of tsunami-induced scour around a monopile structure, representative of those commonly utilized as offshore wind turbine foundations at moderate depths i.e. for depths less than 30 m.

Numerical Study on Lateral Response of Offshore Monopile in Sand under Local Scouring Conditions
Currently, p-y models have been broadly adopted for estimating the lateral bearing capacity of large-diameter monopiles in offshore engineering. However, the existing p-y curves cannot reflect the effect of pile diameter D on the lateral response of ...

An innovative experimental device for characterizing the responses of monopiles subjected to complex lateral loading [PDF]
Offshore wind turbines are usually founded on monopiles. During the operation period, the structure is subjected to complex lateral loading from wind, wave and current.

Model Uncertainties for Soil-Structure Interaction in Offshore Wind Turbine Monopile Foundations
Monopiles are the most common type of foundation used for bottom-fixed offshore wind turbines. This investigation concerns the influence of uncertainty related to soil–structure interaction models used to represent monopile–soil systems.

The advanced p-y method for analyzing the behaviour of large-diameter monopiles supporting offshore wind turbines [PDF]
The analyses of monopile foundations have been heavily based on the p-y response curves (to represent lateral soil resistances) published by API RP 2GEO (2011) and DNV (2013), which are proven reliable and applicable for piles with smaller diameters that

Centrifuge modelling of offshore monopile foundation [PDF]
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 ...
