The model is about the tubular pile penetration process. as you can seen in the figure.1.

the soil is model by the eulerian element, and the pile is assumed to be the rigid body.
i use the general contact in the interaction, as u can see in the pic below. the tangential behavior adopts penealty, and the normal behavior adopts hard contact

However, the soil overlap with the pile during the penetration.
