With the increasing construction of large-scale wind turbines in seismically active coastal areas, the survivability of these high-rated-power offshore wind turbines (OWTs) in marine and geological conditions becomes extremely important. Although research on the dynamic behaviors of OWTs under earthquakes has been conducted with consideration of the soil-structure interaction, the attention paid to the impact of earthquake-induced seabed liquefaction on OWTs supported by large-diameter monopiles remains limited. In view of this research gap, this study carries out dynamic analyses of a 10 MW OWT under combined wind, wave, and earthquake loadings. This study uses a pressure-dependent multisurface elastoplastic constitutive model to simulate the soil liquefaction phenomenon. The results indicate that the motion of the large-diameter monopile leads to more extensive soil liquefaction surrounding the monopile, specifically in the zone near the pile toe. Moreover, compared with earthquake loading alone, liquefaction becomes more severe under the coupled wind and earthquake loadings. Accordingly, the dynamic responses of the OWT are apparently amplified, which demonstrates the importance of considering the coupling loadings. Compared with wind loading, the effect of wave loading on the dynamic response and liquefaction potential is relatively insignificant.

Compared with normal wind, typhoons may change the flow field surrounding wind turbines, thus influencing their wind-induced responses and stability. The existing typhoon theoretical model in the civil engineering field is too simplified. To address this problem, the WRF (Weather Research Forecasting) model was introduced for high-resolution simulation of the Typhoon “Nuri” firstly. Secondly, the typhoon field was analyzed, and the wind speed profile of the boundary layer was fitted. Meanwhile, the normal wind speed profile with the same wind speed of the typhoon speed profile at the gradient height of class B landform in the code was set. These two wind speed profiles were integrated into the UDF (User Defined Function). On this basis, a five-MW wind turbine in Shenzhen was chosen as the research object. The action mechanism of speed was streamlined and turbulence energy surrounding the wind turbine was disclosed by microscale CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation. The influencing laws of a typhoon and normal wind on wind pressure distribution were compared. Finally, key attention was paid to analyzing the structural response, buckling stability, and ultimate bearing capacity of the wind turbine system. The research results demonstrated that typhoons increased the aerodynamic force and structural responses, and decreased the overall buckling stability and ultimate bearing capacity of the wind turbine.
