Abstract:In this research, a series of non‐linear dynamic finite element (FE) effective stress analyses were conducted to analyze the influence of the suction caisson geometry, ground motion intensity and contact pressure caused by the offshore wind turbine (OWT) on the settlement pattern and seismic demand of the OWT's structure on saturated dense sand. The baseline model and the FE procedure were validated using a database of well‐documented centrifuge tests. However, particular attention was given to the calibration… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
