Development, implementation, calibration and use of practical constitutive models in finite element analysis of offshore foundations

<p>The finite element method is routinely used for the design of offshore wind turbine foundations, with complex time-consuming three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) typically performed to calibrate site-specific simplified macro element or one-dimensional (1D) finite models for...
