Panagiota Tasiopoulou, Yannis Chaloulos, Nikos Gerolymos, Amalia Giannakou and Jacob Chacko have co-authored two papers, introducing the implemented version of Ta-Ger (Tasiopoulou and Gerolymos, 2016a,2016b) multiaxial constitutive model for sand in FLAC and FLAC3D. The first paper, titled “3D and 2D simulations of liquefaction-induced settlements of shallow foundations using Ta-Ger model” and published in the Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering held in Rome, Italy (2019), focuses on liquefaction-induced settlements, including validation against a centrifuge test which investigates the settlement of a building founded on a footing due to liquefaction. The second paper, titled “Numerical Study of the Cyclic Response of Bucket Foundations in Sand using Ta-Ger Model” and published in the Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Natural Hazards and Infrastructure held in Chania, Greece, investigates the performance of bucket foundations in sand used for offshore wind turbines, under wave loading and different drainage conditions.
