Probabilistic modelling of geotechnical conditions for offshore wind turbine support structures [PDF]

, 2014
The geotechnical conditions of the soil can fluctuate greatly across the wind farm. This is an issue since geotechnical modelling is the base of the structural design of an offshore wind farm, and the efficient installation of the wind turbines ...

Model testing of foundations for offshore wind turbines [PDF]

, 2006
Suction caissons are a new foundation option for offshore wind turbines. This thesis is focussed on the behaviour of suction caisson foundations in sand and in clay during installation, and under subsequent vertical and combined moment-lateral loadings ...

Soil conditions and bounds to suction during the installation of caisson foundations in sand [PDF]

, 2014
Suction installation of caisson foundations is widely adopted in the oil offshore industry. When such foundations are installed in sand, seepage conditions are known to play a pivotal role in the installation process.

Vertical capacity of bucket foundations in undrained soil

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2014
Offshore wind turbine structures are traditionally founded on gravity concrete foundations or mono-piles. Bucket foundations were developed for the offshore oil and gas industry and are now being used in wind turbine construction.

Enhancement of Tabular Pile lateral resistance with external wings [PDF]

JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2022
The foundations for offshore wind turbines represent the main item either for cost or installation process, and the lateral resistance of tabular piles is the main factor for its design.

On the numerical modelling of floating offshore wind foundations

, 2023
Floating offshore wind turbines are the subject of increasing interest, as a response to growing societal demands for renewable energy. They enable the harnessing of wind power further away from the coast in larger and deeper offshore fields where fixed ...

The Geotechnical Design Reliability of Offshore Wind Monopiles [PDF]

Lithosphere
Offshore wind energy is expected to become one of the major clean energy sources to combat climate change. Monopile foundations play a central role in shallow water offshore wind development.

Effect of Reinforced Bucket on Bearing Capacity and Natural Frequency of Offshore Wind Turbines Using Pile–Bucket Foundation

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Large-diameter monopiles have been widely used for constructing offshore wind turbines. The bearing capacity of a monopile foundation is a significant research problem.

Dynamics of Offshore Wind Turbine Foundation: A Critical Review and Future Directions

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are being developed with larger capacities for deeper waters, facing complex environmental loads that challenge structural safety. In contrast to onshore turbines, OWT foundations must withstand combined hydrodynamic forces (
