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 …

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 …

This paper presents an approach for the automatic parameter calibration (AC) of a
hypoplastic constitutive soil model. The calibration software developed in this work simplifies …

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

As a new foundation type for offshore wind turbine (OWT), pile-bucket foundation, which
consists of a monopile and a bucket foundation, has good prospect in engineering …

A novel scheme to apply constitutive (continuum) soil models to the mechanical modelling of
soil‐structure interfaces is presented. Opposite to existing approaches, all normal stress …

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

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 …

A segment-based mortar contact discretisation technique for the analysis of hydro-
mechanically coupled dynamic processes with quadratically interpolated finite elements and …

The simulation of the installation of open-ended piles using a Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian
method in conjunction with two sophisticated constitutive soil models, Sanisand and …
