Soil-structure interaction of soil foundations for offshore wind turbines(Daniella Escribano, James Cox, David Nash, Suby Bhattacharya, Andrea Diambra, Domenico Lombardi, Sam Hayhurst)
changing soil stiffness may result in cumulative long term deformations and altered dynamic response
long term cyclic loading due to wind and waves
subject soil elements to simplified cyclic stress history in laboratory and observe changes of dynamic stiffness and deformation
