Optimizing The Installation of steel, Open-Ended Piles Through Impact Hammering For Offshore Applications: A Parametric, Experimental Study In The Geocentrifuge

As a result of population growth and economical prosperity, energy consumption has been on the rise for decades. Present-day projections predict the continuation of this trend with the rapid industrialization of former second world countries. Together with the rise of energy demand, incentives fo the scientific community to quantify the...

Experience on the preparation of HPMC viscous fluid for physical modeling in the geocentrifuge

Investigating soil response before, during and following large scale, dynamic events like slope failure or impact hammering of monopiles, is challenging. Full scale research into these processes is often conducted in the field, as laboratories don’t offer the required space to conduct these experiments. Apart fromthe monumental costs related to...
