Probabilistic finite element stiffness of a laterally loaded monopile based on an improved asymptotic sampling method

The mechanical responses of an offshore monopile foundation mounted in over-consolidated clay are calculated by employing a stochastic approach where a nonlinear p–y curve is incorporated with a finite element scheme. The random field theory is applied to represent a spatial variation for undrained...
