The calculated response from a numerical model will deviate from the measured one given
the presence of modelling idealizations and real world construction effects. This deviation …

The idea of hybrid pile foundation provides optimized foundation solutions for the new
generation of offshore wind turbines (OWTs). In this paper, the behavior of monopile and …

Design practice in offshore geotechnical engineering has grown out of onshore practice, but
the two application areas have tended to diverge over the last thirty years, driven partly by …

Soil Mechanics and Foundations 3rd Edition presents the basic concepts and principles of
soil mechanics and foundations in the context of basic mechanics, physics, and …

The direct cone penetration test (CPT) based pile design methods use the measured
penetrometer readings by scaling relationships or algorithms in a single-step process to …

Determination of interface shear strength is crucial in the design of many geotechnical
structures. To study the effect of interface roughness, particle geometry (size and shape) …

Mechanisms governing the sand plug behavior inside an open-ended pile are examined
using the discrete element method. A series of numerical pile penetration tests have been …

This paper presents the results of tensile load tests performed with instrumented model piles
with different surface roughnesses jacked into sand samples in a half-circular calibration …

Screw piles potentially offer quieter installation and enhanced axial tensile capacity over
straight-shafted driven piles. As such, they have been suggested as a possible foundation …

A CPT-based method is presented for estimating the self-weight penetration and suction
required during the installation of suction caissons in medium dense to dense sand. Existing …
