This study examines the current status and future potential of the offshore wind sector.
Offshore wind is pivotal in transitioning to a low-carbon society and meeting rising energy …

This practical guide provides the best introduction to large deformation material point
method (MPM) simulations for geotechnical engineering. It provides the basic theory …

The installation of displacement piles in sand leads to severe changes in the stress state,
density and soil properties around the pile tip and shaft, and therefore has a significant …

During installation of a displacement pile, the soil around the pile is heavily distorted. The
resulting changes in soil density and stress state around the pile determine the ultimate pile …

The stresses acting in the soil mass adjacent to the tips and shafts of displacement piles
during installation and loading in medium-dense sand have been simulated in triaxial stress …

The traditional design method for drilled shafts rarely considers the influence of construction
effect and tip resistance on side resistance, and lacks attempts to improve the performance …

The paper presents a numerical investigation carried out for helical pile installed in loose
cohesionless soil with varying density and dimensions of the helical blade/shaft. The …

The paper illustrates the development of metamodels of the response of steel piles driven in
sand and subjected to pull-out. The metamodels are created for the prediction of the pile …

Piles as a member of structures can be failed due to structural collapses or soil's body
failure. Extensive experimental studies have been conducted in literatures to identify the …

This paper presents a two-dimensional particle flow code (PFC2D) model of the discrete
element method (DEM) that is used to study the effects of pile installation in deep foundation …
