... of the boundaries of an equivalent shear beam (ESB) container during dynamic centrifuge tests of an onshore wind turbine resting on liquefiable soils is evaluated. To this end, numerical modelling of the ESB box was implemented in the finite-element framework OpenSees, to replicate the results observed...

... confining pressures maintain the stress state within the yield surface. Although several research studies have already been carried out on this topic, this subject still needs further investigation. Thus, this paper presents the results of a combination of centrifuge models and numerical models...

.... Surficial failure mechanisms are investigated using prototype ground models that integrate input from field monitoring, geological observations and soil properties and account for relevant factors and constraints for physical and numerical modelling. Shallow scree deposits overlying various bedrock...
