Influence of static–cyclic load misalignment on the drained tilting response of offshore monopiles in sand

Offshore monopile foundations are exposed to misaligned wind and wave loadings, which are respectively dominated by (nearly) static and cyclic load components. While the response of these systems to unidirectional cyclic loading has been extensively investigated, only a few studies have been devoted to the realistic case of misaligned static...

The relationship between soil index properties and the cyclic shear strength from undrained cyclic tests

Offshore wind power structures are subjected to cyclic loading. Several loads like wind and wave loading are acting on the structure and therefore its foundation. It is important to involve the impact of this cyclic loading into the design of the structure. A cyclic load influences the strength and deformation characteristics of the soil. Due to...
