Scour Effects on the Lateral Behavior of a Large-Diameter Monopile in Soft Clay: Role of Stress History

Scouring of soil around large-diameter monopile will alter the stress history, and therefore the stiffness and strength of the soil at shallow depth, with important consequence to the lateral behavior of piles. The existing study is mainly focused on small-diameter piles under scouring, where the so...
