Popis: This article describes characterization of a site for vibro-installation of large-diameter piles and estimation of soil parameters for the numerical code VibPile to simulate the vibratory pile installations. The code applies new computational models for the far field elastodynamic springs and accounts for the soil stiffness and damping outside and inside the pile. A minimum number of input soil parameters such as interface friction angle, shear wave velocity and soil density are required. Results of cone penetration test and shear wave velocity measurements in-situ were applied to estimate the input soil parameter and simulate the penetration of a large monopile with a diameter d=4.3m. The predicted optimum driving frequency is in good agreement with in-situ results.
