The behavior of monopile subject to repeated lateral loads in normally consolidated clay is investigated using centrifuge modeling technique. A strain-softening model of clay is characterized by T-bar cyclic tests. A comparison between the results with the strain-softening model and the test results on monopiles under displacement-controlled repeated loading reveals that the accumulation of plastic strain leads to a reduction in the soil undrained shear strength and lateral stiffness. Further tests are conducted under load control. By interpreting the gradual changes in the progressive pile deflection with the strain-softening model, the mechanism for the lateral stiffness degradation of monopiles subject to repeated lateral loads is discussed.
