Abstract

AbstractThe present paper is proposing to make a comparison between numerical results using Finite Element Method and experimental ones, for an isolated pile foundation in sandy soil, submitted to cyclic actions from wave or wind. 3D numerical modelling was performed in CESAR – LCPC software, using Drucker‐Prager constitutive law with kinematic hardening for the soil. The small‐scale centrifuge test results were obtained by IFFSTAR Nantes. The numerical and the experimental results, concerning the pile head displacements were in good agreement.
