A simplified design procedure for foundations of offshore wind turbines is often useful as it
can provide the types and sizes of foundation required to carry out financial viability analysis …

Comprehensive reference covering the design of foundations for offshore wind turbines As
the demand for “green” energy increases the offshore wind power industry is expanding at a …

Offshore wind turbines in shallow coastal waters are typically supported on monopile
foundations. Although three-dimensional (3D) finite-element methods are available for the …

Wind energy is one of the most sustainable and renewable resources for power generation.
Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) derive significant wind energy compared to onshore …

This paper provides a summary of the PIle Soil Analysis (PISA) project, completed in the UK
during the period 2013 to 2018. The research led to the development of a new …

Offshore wind turbines are typically founded on single large diameter piles, termed
monopiles. Pile diameters of between 5m and 6m are routinely used, with diameters of up to …

Perspectives on design of offshore wind turbine (OWT) monopile foundations are provided
in this paper by logically adopting optimal analysis choices with a balance between …

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 …

The support structure of an offshore wind turbine (OWT) accounts for up to 25% of the capital
cost; therefore, investigations into reliable and efficient foundations are critical for the …

The results obtained from a field testing campaign on laterally loaded monopiles, conducted
at a dense sand site in Dunkirk, northern France are described. These tests formed part of …
