“…This case, although useful for validation purposes, cannot be compared to the one presented here due to considerable differences in the system parameters, i.e., pile dimensions, soil conditions and water depth. In this section, predictions of the model are compared to data available in the literature from three measurement campaigns [17,31,42] and one theoretical benchmark case study [43]. In the cases referring to offshore measurements [17,31,42], the time history of the applied force is not always known.…”
