van Alphen, Krijn (author)This thesis describes the investigation of the lateral monopile response in weak rock and the effect of a zone of crushed rock that is induced by driven installation. The goal of the investigation is to study the impact of the weaker zone around a monopile on the lateral response. The thesis focuses on the modelling of a monopile in a finite...master thesis 2023

Veldhuijzen van Zanten, Daan (author)In this thesis the performance of five CPT-based p-y models by Novello (1999), Dyson & Randolph (2001), Li, et al. (2014) and Suryasentana & Lehane (2014;2016) is assessed. This is done in part by comparing the measured load-deflection response from a set of lab- and field tests that is representative for offshore monopile structures to...master thesis 2022

Foursoff, Willemijn (author)The API RP 2GEO (2011) p-y method is an industry standard approach to predict the lateral pile behaviour of slender oil platform piles with length (L) over diameter (D) ratios > 10. However, offshore wind turbines are founded on large diameter monopiles with an L/D ratio < 8, which are rather rigid piles. There are concerns about the...master thesis 2018
