Analytical approaches to determine the long-term settlement of shallow foundations
subjected to dynamic cyclic loading with a large number of cycles (millions) are presented …

Offshore wind is undergoing rapid growth and is expected to play a vital role in the transition
to a low-carbon global economy. This paper presents the results of implicit three …

Soil plugging in open-ended piles is likely to occur in dense sandy soils which has been the
subject of numerous scientific investigations. In contrast, the plugging behaviour in clayey …

Due to their ability to analyse the behaviour of slender structures with reasonable accuracy
and moderate computational expense, embedded finite elements have attracted widespread …

Cyclic loads generated by environmental factors, such as winds, waves, and trains, will likely
lead to performance degradation in pile foundations, resulting in issues like permanent …

The paper introduces a semi-analytical approach for predicting the pile-soil response under
cyclic lateral loads in sands, incorporating the cavity expansion/contraction theory with an …

A critical investigation of three constitutive models for clay by means of analyses of a
sophisticated laboratory testing program and of centrifuge tests on monopiles in clay …

This paper presents large deformation finite element (FE) modelling of penetration of solid
cylindrical piles into highly sensitive soft clay. The simulations are performed using a …

Understanding and optimizing the extraction of offshore monopiles from the seabed in
decommissioning operations give both environmental benefits and cost reduction. The …

Soil setup has a significant contribution to the performance of jacked piles in natural clays
with structure characteristics. In this paper, a series of model pile tests are conducted to …
