The performance of three advanced constitutive models has been evaluated based on
element tests and on a comparative study on the simulation of vibratory pile driving tests in …

Gentle driving of piles (GDP) is a new technology for the vibratory installation of tubular
(mono) piles that aims to achieve both efficient installation and low noise emission by …

A high-cycle accumulation (HCA) model predicting the accumulation of permanent strain or
excess pore water pressure in clay under a large number of load cycles is presented. Data …

Serviceability criteria for offshore monopiles include the estimation of long-term, permanent
tilt under repeated operational loads. In the lack of well-established analysis methods …

The installation-induced changes in the state of clayey soils caused by pile driving
processes are investigated numerically. Hydro-mechanically coupled Coupled-Eulerian …

The development of a hydro-mechanically coupled Coupled-Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL)
method and its application to the back-analysis of vibratory pile driving model tests in water …

A parametric study on the long-term deformations of monopile foundations for offshore wind
turbines is presented. The finite element calculations of a monopile in fine sand were …

Offshore monopiles accumulate permanent tilt under long-lasting cyclic environmental
loads. Accurate prediction of monopile tilt is key to assessing their serviceability, and …

This study presents the formulation and implementation of a fully implicit stabilised Material
Point Method (MPM) for dynamic problems in two-phase porous media. In particular, the …

The influence of the pile installation by vibratory or impact driving on the response to
subsequent cyclic lateral loading, as faced in the offshore environment, is investigated …
