Lateral Bearing Characteristics and the Corresponding p-y Model of Pile–Bucket Foundation in Layered Sand–Clay Strata

Pile–bucket foundation is a newly developed offshore wind turbine supporting structure created by combining a monopile and a bucket foundation. Current research mainly focuses on its bearing characteristics in homogeneous soil layers (e.g., pure sand and pure clay); however, field stratigraphy is normally in a layered...
