Monopile rotation under complex cyclic lateral loading in sand
Monopiles supporting offshore wind turbines experience combined moment and horizontal loading which is both cyclic and complex; continuously varying in amplitude, direction and frequency. The accumulation of rotation with cyclic loading (ratcheting) is a key concern for monopile designers and has be...
