Panagoulias, Stavros (author), Nernheim, Axel (author), Lisi, Diego (author), Lahoz, Miquel (author), Brinkgreve, R.B.J. (author)Single large diameter piles, known as monopiles, are, nowadays, the most common foundation type for offshore wind turbines (OWT). Several research initiatives have been focusing on improving the conventional design practice. The PISA (Pile Soil Analysis) joint industry research project resulted in a proposal for a new design methodology for OWT...conference paper 2020

Brinkgreve, R.B.J. (author), Lisi, Diego (author), Lahoz, Miquel (author), Panagoulias, S. (author)The PISA (Pile Soil Analysis) research project has resulted in a new methodology for the design of offshore wind turbine monopile foundations. A new software tool called PLAXIS Monopile Designer (MoDeTo) has been developed that automates the PISA design methodology. It facilitates the calibration of the so-called soil reaction curves by...journal article 2020

Panagoulias, S. (author), Hosseini, S. (author), Brinkgreve, R.B.J. (author), Burd, H. J. (author)This paper describes an implementation of the methodology, developed in Phase 2 the recent PISA (PIle Soil Analysis) joint industry research project, for the design of laterally-loaded monopiles in layered soils. The software PLAXIS MoDeTo and PLAXIS 3D are employed to obtain the soil reaction curves that are required for the method, following...conference paper 2019

Panagoulias, S. (author), Brinkgreve, R.B.J. (author), Minga, Elini (author), Burd, Harvey (author), McAdam, R. (author)The recently-completed PISA (PIle Soil Analysis) research project aimed to improve the design of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines (OWT), focusing on laterally-loaded monopiles with length-to-diameter (L/D) ratios between 2 and 6. The project resulted in a novel one-dimensional (1D) design model which overcomes certain limitations...conference paper 2018
