Response of Laterally Loaded Monopile Using Three-Dimensional Finite Element Analysis
The increase in need for energy in the developing world boosted the search for efficient energy sources. Most of the current energy sources in the past decades were not sustainable. The growing concern on the existence of earth leads to find an alternative sustainable energy source. The right proportion of energy need in many developed countries is obtained using offshore wind energy. Offshore wind turbine (OWT) produces renewable and efficient energy in this era, which is supported on large-diameter monopiles. These monopiles are subjected to very high lateral and moment loads. This paper deals with the response of a bottom fixed monopile under lateral loads taking into account varying soil strata and pile diameter. The analysis was performed using a three-dimensional finite element approach for the pile embedded in three types of soils, that is, clay, sand, and layered soil. By varying the diameter of the monopile, it is observed that large-diameter monopile in any soil tends to behave like a rigid system having a minor deflection. However, the soil profile influences the behavior of monopile considerably with considerable length to diameter ratios.
