Influence of initial soil state and installation parameters on the lateral behaviour of vibratory-driven monopiles in sand

To support offshore wind turbines (OWT), monopiles are currently the most frequently used foundation method. These monopiles are open-ended steel tubes with a diameter of 5 - 12 m, which are most often installed in the seabed by means of hydraulic impact hammering usually mounted...

Assessment of the Response of Offshore Monopile Foundations to Vibratory Hammer Action: A parametric study to the response of offshore monopile foundations to a proper definition of a vibratory hammer including imperfections

The demand for wind energy has led to the need for larger offshore wind turbines, which require larger monopiles for support. Vibratory pile driving is a common technique for installing these monopiles, but current engineering models are designed for smaller diameter monopiles and may not be applicable to larger ones. Additionally, the vibratory...
