An Oceanography‐Based Anticipatory Approach to Monitoring Fisheries and Fishery Resource Impacts From Offshore Wind Farms: A Perspective From the Mid‐Atlantic Bight, USA

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 5-21, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can

Small-displacement behavior of offshore wind power monopiles subjected to static lateral loading

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The centrifuge tests and numerical simulations are carried out to explore the small-displacement behavior of 9 m-diameter offshore wind power large-scale monopiles with various embedment depths. The results show that as the embedment depth increases, the

A Structured Techno‐Economic and Socio‐Regulatory Comparison of Onshore, Fixed‐Bottom Offshore, and Floating Offshore Wind Energy Systems

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Onshore, fixed‐bottom offshore, and floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) represent distinct technological pathways for large‐scale wind energy deployment, yet comparative assessments often emphasize descriptive characteristics rather than quantified performance trade‐offs.

Monopile Implementation in Offshore Bridge

International Journal For Multidisciplinary Research
This paper presents an in-depth analysis of the implementation of monopiles in offshore and overwater bridge construction. Monopiles, cylindrical steel structures driven into the seabed or riverbed, have gained prominence as a foundation solution due to their cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and environmental benefits.

Surrogate‐Accelerated Optimization of Virtual High‐Mass ATMD for Multifrequency Vibration Control in 15‐MW Wind Turbines

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The upscaling of wind turbines to ultra‐large capacities, such as 15 MW, introduces important structural control challenges because the tower natural frequency may interact with the dominant blade‐passing (3P) frequency, reducing the effectiveness of conventional passive tuned mass dampers (TMDs) under detuned operating conditions.

Effects of an array of widely separated vertical cylinders on time-averaged properties of progressive monochromatic waves

RBRH, 2020
The design of monopile foundations for offshore wind farms, the estimate of wave loads, and the effect of the structures on the environment usually consider one single vertical cylinder.

Optimization of monopile offshore wind structures [PDF]

, 2011
ABSTRACT: As industrialization is essential for large-scale offshore wind deployment, a computerized methodology to optimize the scantling of monopile steel structures has been developed using a genetic alg rithm. The objective functions of this tool are minimization of the structure weight and production costs.

State‐of‐the‐Art Review of Vibration‐Based Health Monitoring of Piles

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Vibration‐based health monitoring (VHM) has emerged as a promising technique for assessing the integrity of deep foundations by interpreting variations in dynamic response governed by soil–pile interaction. This review presents the theoretical background of foundation failure mechanisms, sensing technologies, and numerical approaches that underpin VHM ...

Diameter-dependent analytical p–y curves for response analysis of monopiles in sand

International Journal of Geo-Engineering
Large-diameter monopiles are extensively used to support onshore bridges, port terminals, and offshore wind farms due to their high load-bearing capacity, low settlement and excellent seismic performance.

Seismic Response Mechanism and Soil–Structure Interaction of Monopile Offshore Wind Turbines Under Flat and Near‐Sloping Seabed Scenarios

Shock and Vibration, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Monopile foundations are widely used in fixed‐bottom offshore wind turbines (OWTs), and their seismic response is strongly affected by pile–soil–structure interaction. Most existing studies have focused on OWTs located on flat and idealized seabeds, whereas the influence of near‐slope seabed topography has received relatively limited experimental ...
