Abstract
Coupled mechanical systems can be complex, especially if there are many systems connected together and nonlinearities are present. Soil-structure interaction refers to the interaction between a structure and the soil or foundation upon which it is built. This interaction is important because it can affect the behavior of the structure, particularly during earthquakes or other dynamic events. For the wind turbine foundation design, the soil should support the weight of a wind turbine and anchor it to the ground. This paper presents a nonlinear material behavior soil coupled to elastic structure in offshore conditions. The goal of this work is to develop a coupled structural finite element procedure using Localized Lagrange Multipliers (LLM) at idealized offshore wind turbines with nonlinear poroelastic model for soil foundation. In this work, an anisotropic sand constitutive model is used to describe the soil foundation behavior. This model is based in a critical state soil mechanics and bounding surface plasticity. Classical elasto-plasticity theory is used to obtain the soil stiffness. The numerical model is validated through a fully coupled model at classical problems results. The mixed formulation [Formula: see text] is used to model the interface frames between the domains. The momentum equilibrium and mass continuity equations are solved by algebraic equation system imposed by Lagrange multipliers methodology. In order to excite the system, aerodynamic forces are imposed in random wind velocity conditions. In another numerical case, the response of coupled system during shaking is simulated by a horizontal input motion at bottom of soil foundation. Some computational aspects are discussed and the numerical model is clarified. The classical Newton Method to solve nonlinear problems is used in a finite element approach. In addition, two foundation models are tested and time dynamic responses are evaluated for a range of physical parameters including the wind nature and soil properties.
