Kementzetzidis, Evangelos (author), Pisano, F. (author), Elkadi, A.S.K. (author), Tsouvalas, A. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)Gentle Driving of Piles (GDP) is a new technology for the vibratory installation of tubular (mono)piles. Its founding principle is that both efficient installation and low noise emission can be achieved by applying to the pile a combination of axial and torsional vibrations. Preliminary development and demonstration of the proposed technology...journal article 2023

(author), Segeren, M.L.A. (author), Molenkamp, T. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)A novel pile-driving technique, named Gentle Driving of Piles (GDP), that combines axial low-frequency and torsional high-frequency vibrations has been developed and tested recently. During the experimental campaign, several piles were installed onshore, making use of the GDP shaker. Besides those, a number of additional piles were installed...conference paper 2020
