• UDCAM-S Model_Monopiles

    Hello Everyone. I am working on a design of monopiles under cyclic loading condition. I am using UDCAM-S model. It is clearly mentioned that this model can be used in offshore structures that experience storm loadings. I am aware that using this…

  • Confirmation regarding modelling of monopile foundation using embedded beam

    In PLAXIS 3D, we do have an option to model the hollow pile as an embedded beam. Can PLAXIS team please confirm whether it's a right approach to model monopile for offshore wind turbine. Because we can directly extract the bending moment and shear force…

  • Obtaining the response of bending moment and shear force for the monopile if it the pile is modeled as volume element not as a embedded beam?

    I have modeled my monopile foundation for offshore wind turbine. The pile is modeled as volume pile using plate element and it is subjected to the horizontal load at the top. I want to get corresponding response of bending moment and shear force which…

  • Unplugged pile behavior - 3D Model

    Dear all, I am trying to model a monopile, hence an open ended pile with large diameter (more than 8m), in PLAXIS 3D (21.01.00.479). At this point, I am more interested in the axial capacity of the monopile. The pile is installed as "wished in place…

  • Water pressure in the gap between pile and soil

    Hello, I have a doubt whether the Plaxis-3D could simulate the water pressure in the gap between pile and soil. The background of this is when cyclic load applied at the offshore monopile, the gap would appear at least on one side of pile, which would…
