Underwater Noise Emission Due to Offshore Pile Installation: A Review
The growing demand for renewable energy supply stimulates a drastic increase in the deployment rate of offshore wind energy. Offshore wind power generators are usually supported by large foundation piles that are driven into the seabed with hydraulic ...

Numerical evaluation of the pipe-pile buckling during vibratory driving in sand [PDF]
The buckling of steel pipe piles during vibratory driving is numerically studied using the Multi-Material Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (MMALE) method. This method handles the large soil deformations that occur during pile driving and other geotechnical ...

Comment on “Temporal and spatial variation in harbor seal (Phoca vitulina L.) roar calls from southern Scandinavia” [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 141, 1824-1834 (2017)] [PDF]
In their recent article, Sabinsky and colleagues investigated heterogeneity in harbor seals' vocalizations. The authors found seasonal and geographical variation in acoustic parameters, warning readers that recording conditions might account for some of ...

Energy flux analysis for quantification of vibratory pile driving efficiency
In this paper, the energy flux in a pile modeled as an elastic shell, is studied theoretically and experimentally. Based on this analysis, a new procedure is proposed to quantify the pile installation efficiency. This procedure is of importance for vibratory installation of the foundations of offshore wind turbines and it is believed to be the first ...
