Earthquake response of monopiles and caissons for Offshore Wind Turbines founded in liquefiable soil

, 2020
Monopile has been the most widespread foundation type for Offshore Wind Turbines (OWTs) in shallow waters. Caisson (skirted) foundations have also been evaluated in some projects as an economical alternative.

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

Water
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 ...

Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 947-967, 10 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

A 3-D modelling of monopile behaviour under laterally applied loading

Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
Deploying higher-capacity offshore wind turbines to meet the growing energy demand poses a significant challenge in designing their foundations. Monopiles currently constitute 80% of the foundation installations for these turbines.

Large Deformation Pile‐soil Interaction Under Lateral Vehicle Impact Using Hybrid SPH+FEM and EFG+FEM Models

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 2648-2669, 10 April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents large deformation computational methods to simulate lateral vehicular impacts on steel piles in granular soil. Soil‐mounted longitudinal barrier systems rely on energy dissipation in both the piles and the surrounding soil to safely redirect errant vehicles, so dynamic pile‐soil interaction is important for design ...

Centrifuge modelling of screw piles for offshore wind energy foundations [PDF]

, 2018
Screw piles (helical piles) can provide a viable, cost-effective and low-noise installation alternative to increasing the size of existing foundation solutions (e.g.

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 176-192, March 2026.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

A New p–y Curve for Laterally Loaded Large-Diameter Monopiles in Soft Clays

Sustainability, 2022
In harsh offshore environmental conditions, the monopile foundations supporting offshore wind turbines must be designed for lateral loads such as winds, waves, and currents.
