Offshore wind is a source of clean, renewable energy of great potential value to the power
industry in the context of a low carbon society. Rapid development of offshore wind energy …

The sustainable development of offshore wind energy requires thorough investigations on
technological issues. The substructure, which acts as the natural link between technologies …

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 …

The driven monopile is currently the preferred foundation type for most offshore wind farms.
While the static capacity of the monopile is important, a safe design must also address …

Suction buckets are a promising foundation solution for offshore wind energy systems. The
bearing behavior of monopod buckets under drained monotonic loading in very dense and …

Skirted gravity base foundations and suction caisson foundations are considered as viable
alternatives to monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines. While recent work has …

Suction caissons may be used in the future as the foundations for offshore wind turbines. We
review recent research on the development of design methods for suction caissons for these …

Considering the deficiencies of the traditional monopile foundation for offshore wind turbines
(OWTs) in severe marine environments, an innovative hybrid foundation is developed in the …

This paper presents experimental work aimed at improving understanding of the behaviour
of rigid monopiles, in cohesionless soils, subjected to lateral cyclic loading. It involves 1 g …

The hybrid monopile foundation attracts extensive attentions to fulfill increasing demands for
offshore wind turbines. The installation method is still uncertainty to date, limiting the …
