Assessment of natural frequency of installed offshore wind turbines using nonlinear finite element model considering soil-monopile interaction
A nonlinear finite element model is developed to examine the lateral behaviors of monopiles, which support offshore wind turbines (OWTs) chosen from five different offshore wind farms in Europe. The simulation is using this model to accurately estimate the natural frequency of these slender structur...
