Assessment of natural frequency of installed offshore wind turbines using nonlinear finite element model considering soil-monopile interaction

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018
A nonlinear finite element model is developed to examine the lateral behaviors of monopiles, which support offshore wind turbines (OWTs) chosen from five different offshore wind farms in Europe.

The Lateral Behavior of Large-Diameter Monopiles for Offshore Wind Turbines Based on the p-y Curve and Solid FEM Methods

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
With the rapid increase in offshore wind turbines in China, monopiles with diameters exceeding 2 m are widely used. As these piles are subjected to lateral loads caused by wind, waves, and currents, the designs of the pile foundations supporting the ...

Results of fatigue measurement campaign on XL monopiles and early predictive models

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022
In the present contribution, data from a measurement campaign on XL monopiles (with 9.5 MW turbines and water depths of up to 36 m) is presented. This campaign is based on data collected by three types of sensors: strain gauges (installed at the TP-tower

Drainage conditions around monopiles in sand [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research, 2019
Abstract Large diameter monopiles are typical foundation solutions for offshore wind turbines. In design of the monopile foundations in sand, it is necessary to understand the drainage conditions of the foundation soil under the design loading conditions as the soil performance (strength and stiffness) is highly dependent on the drainage conditions ...

Scour Effect on the Lateral Bearing Behaviour of Monopiles Considering Different Slenderness Ratios

open access: yesWater
Scour leads to the loss of soil around monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines, which affects their structural safety. In this paper, the effect of scour on the lateral behaviour of monopiles was extensively investigated using finite element ...

PISA Design Methods for Offshore Wind Turbine Monopiles [PDF]

open access: yesOffshore Technology Conference, 2019
Abstract This paper provides an overview of the PISA design model recently developed for laterally loaded offshore wind turbine monopiles through a major European joint-industry academic research project, the PISA Project. The focus was on large diameter, relatively rigid piles, with low length to diameter (L/D) ratios, embedded in clay ...

Influence of Scour Protection on the Vertical Bearing Behaviour of Monopiles in Sand

open access: yesWater
Extensive studies have been performed on the effectiveness of scour protection against scour erosion progression. But there is little research to date evaluating the effect of scour protection on vertical resistance behaviour of monopile foundations ...
