TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic response of a wind turbine on monopile is studied under horizontal and vertical earthquake excitations using the finite element program SAP2000, and the analyses are carried out for both a non-homogeneous stratum and a deep soil using the three-step method.
Abstract: Summary The dynamic response of a wind turbine on monopile is studied under horizontal and vertical earthquake excitations. The analyses are carried out using the finite element program SAP2000. The finite element model of the structure is verified against the results of shake table tests, and the earthquake response of the soil model is verified against analytical solutions of the steady-state response of homogeneous strata. The focus of the analyses in this paper is the vertical earthquake response of wind turbines including the soil-structure interaction effects. The analyses are carried out for both a non-homogeneous stratum and a deep soil using the three-step method. In addition, a procedure is implemented which allows one to perform coupled soil-structure interaction analyses by properly tuning the damping in the tower structure. The analyses show amplification of the ground surface acceleration to the top of the tower by a factor of two. These accelerations are capable of causing damage in the turbine and the tower structure, or malfunctioning of the turbine after the earthquake; therefore, vertical earthquake excitation is considered a potential critical loading in design of wind turbines even in low-to-moderate seismic areas.

TL;DR: In this article, an infinite layer method for the analysis of the settlement interaction between piles embedded in layered soil was presented, where the soil, which can have properties varying with depth, was divided into a number of infinite layers whereas the pile is divided into the same number of solid bar elements, which deform as a rigid section in the horizontal plane.
Abstract: This Paper presents an infinite layer method for the analysis of the settlement interaction between piles embedded in layered soil. In this method, the soil, which can have properties varying with depth, is divided into a number of infinite layers whereas the pile is divided into the same number of solid bar elements, which deform as a rigid section in the horizontal plane. Based on the single pile model, the increase in settlement of each pile due to interaction with the adjacent pile was calculated by an iteration procedure and is expressed in terms of an interaction factor. The influence of the layered soil, pile spacing and pile stiffness on the interaction effect is also examined. Assuming that the principle of superposition is applicable, the interaction between piles in a pile group can then be easily evaluated. The effect of the rigidity of the pile cap on the load distribution among the piles and the settlement of the foundation system has also been investigated. L'article presente une methode po...
