A finite element (FE) structural analysis based on a commercial software is combined with
an observer-based active control to study the real-time performance of an Active Tuned …

This work presents contributions to the numerical modelling of the installation process and
subsequent high-cyclic loading of piles, such as relevant for pile foundations for offshore …

In addition to supporting vertical loads from superstructures, piles are frequently subjected to
horizontal soil pressures, long-term wind, wave, and current forces, as well as seismic loads …

Large-diameter monopile is the most widely used foundation for offshore wind energy
converters, which behaves as a semi-rigid/rigid pile under lateral loading. However, the …

This paper presents a nonlinear dynamic analysis of a large diameter monopile-supported
multi-megawatt offshore wind turbine (OWT) installed in sandy soil under perfectly drained …

This paper proposes a novel method for calculating the ultimate lateral resistance exerted by
sandy soil against laterally loaded piles. The ultimate lateral resistance distribution of the …

Given the preference as the foundation for offshore wind turbines, this paper focuses on
large-diameter monopiles and presents a series of finite element analyses to investigate the …

Lateral load analyses of large-diameter drilled shafts based on the conventional py method
tend to result in unreliable responses. The paper highlights a unified py analysis that …

The paper introduces a semi-analytical approach for predicting the pile-soil response under
cyclic lateral loads in sands, incorporating the cavity expansion/contraction theory with an …

A cyclic p− y curve model is proposed to study the lateral response of piles in sand under
two-way cyclic loads such as wind and wave. The collapse and densification of the soil …
