In-situ monitoring is an important aspect of geotechnical projects to ensure safety and
optimise design measures. However, existing conventional monitoring instruments are …

Large-diameter monopiles are the most commonly used foundation to support offshore wind
turbines. Early designs usually adopted pile diameters (D) between 4 and 6 m, which is …

Motivated by the need to develop rational design methods for the retrofit of existing bridges
on pile groups, this paper introduces recent experimental developments at the ETH Zurich …

One of the most prevalent causes of bridge failure around the world is “scour”—the gradual
erosion of soil around a bridge foundation due to fast-flowing water. A reliable technique for …

Wind turbine structures can be susceptible to damage from earthquake loading due to large
overturning moments at the foundation level. As the wind energy market expands to …

A participation factor formulation is developed to determine the importance of each natural
frequency due to rotor blades induced forces and moments. This factor can be used to …

The seismic response of monopile foundations is a growing area of research as the offshore
wind industry expands worldwide, including in earthquake prone regions of the world. This …

Monopiles are popular solutions as the foundation to support offshore wind turbines (OWTs),
which suffer from various amplitudes of continuous lateral cyclic wind and wave loading. The …

India has a long coastline with huge potential of wind energy generation though offshore
wind turbines (OWT). However, systematic study with multi-megawatt OWTs for Indian …

The long-term dynamic behavior of pile under cyclic loads is important for the stability and
safety characteristics of jacket supported offshore wind turbine. In this study, large-scale …
