This paper reviews foundations for offshore wind energy convertors considering the
significant growth of offshore wind energy since the early 2000s. The characteristics of …

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 …

This article deals with the relevance and practical feasibility of micromechanical simulations
for their application to general geomechanical problems involving fluid-saturated granular …

Serviceability criteria for offshore monopiles include the estimation of long-term, permanent
tilt under repeated operational loads. In the lack of well-established analysis methods …

The development of the offshore wind industry is motivating substantial research efforts
worldwide, where offshore wind turbines (OWTs) of increasing size are being installed in …

A parametric study on the long-term deformations of monopile foundations for offshore wind
turbines is presented. The finite element calculations of a monopile in fine sand were …

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) in relatively shallow waters are most often founded on
monopile foundations, whose design is extremely relevant to the OWT dynamic performance …

Based on advanced clay-monopile-OWT numerical model, the wind-wave coupling effect
was investigated. Compared to the case of wind load only, both the nacelle top …

An increasing number of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are constructed globally because of
their capability of producing clean and green energy. Many of these structures located have …

Offshore monopiles accumulate permanent tilt under long-lasting cyclic environmental
loads. Accurate prediction of monopile tilt is key to assessing their serviceability, and …
