Field Experiment on Static Densification Pile Method.

Characterization of Odorant Compounds from Mechanical Aerated Pile Composting and Static Aerated Pile Composting.

We studied airborne contaminants (airborne particulates and odorous compounds) emitted from compost facilities in South Korea. There are primarily two different types of composting systems operating in Korean farms, namely mechanical aerated pile composting (MAPC) and aerated static pile composting (SAPC). In this study, we analyzed various particulate matters (PM10, PM7, PM2.5, PM1, and total ...

Interpretation of static pile loading test results and application for design of pile groups

Recent major bridge projects in the Greater Vancouver Area showcase the experience of local geotechnical engineers. Large static pile loading tests have been carried out on a number of these projects including the Pitt River Bridge, Golden Ears Bridge and Port Mann Bridge projects. This paper briefly discusses different analytical approaches to load test interpretation and reviews the approach ...

Inelastic Soil-Pile-Structure Interaction under Static Loading

In this paper, inelastic pile-soil-structure interaction under static loading is presented by using finite element and boundary element methods. Linear beam column finite elements are used to model the piles and structural elements. Nonlinear soil is modeled by using nonlinear springs along the piles. Modified Özdemir’s nonlinear model is implemented for springs and systems of equations are cou...

Static and Dynamic Lateral Loading of Pile Groups

Dynamic and Static Properties of Pile- Soil Interface

The research progresses in static and dynamics tests, constitutive models, interface elements, model tests and field tests of pile soil interface are summarized, and the problems and deficiencies in the current research are analyzed. It is pointed out that research on the dynamic characteristics of pile soil interface widely seen in practical engineering are in lack. Especially, big size experi...
