Influence of the soil structure interaction on the seismic response of monopile offshore wind turbines

One of the key aspects of sustainable development is to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. In order to achieve climate goals, it is expected that wind energy will increase its importance in the electricity production. Offshore wind energy is expected to triple its installed capacity between 2020 and 2025. Several countries have expressed plans...

Soil structure interaction for shallow foundations in 2D and 3D: A semi-analytic linear approach

Seismic analysis of monopile-based offshore wind turbines including aero-elasticity and soil-structure interaction

With the depletion of traditional energy sources, the usage of renewable energy alternatives has increased over the past years. Among them, wind energy is considered as one of the most economical and environmentally friendly alternatives, and is seen as one of the main sources of energy in the future. A very promising field in the area of wind...
