On the Use of Advanced Material Point Methods for Problems Involving Large Rotational Deformation (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, L., Coombs, W., & Augarde, C. (2018, July). On the Use of Advanced Material Point Methods for Problems Involving Large Rotational Deformation. Paper presented at 13th World Congress on Computational Mechanics / 2nd Pan American Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM 2018), New York, USA

The Material Point Method (MPM) is a quasi Eulerian-Lagrangian approach to solve solid mechanics problems involving large deformations. The standard MPM discretises the physical domain using material points which are advected through a standard finit...

A modified CPT based installation torque prediction for large screw piles in sand. Presented at Cone Penetration Testing 2018, Delft, Netherlands

Screw piles have been suggested as an alternative foundation solution to straight-shafted piles for jacket supported offshore wind turbines in deep water. The significant environmental loads in the marine environment will require substantially larger... Read More about A modified CPT based installation torque prediction for large screw piles in sand.
