Considering the fact that offshore piledriving is very costly, a simulation can be very useful to avoid possible problems. There are several different ways of modelling the piledriving principle.
Experiments with a "lumped mass" model show some of the problems that may occur in modelling. Reports on Transport Engineering and Logistics (in Dutch)
