Investigation of the Pile Aging Effect of a Fixed Offshore Platform Located in Persian Gulf using Nonlinear Soil-Pile Interactions

The study about the jacket platforms in the past has revealed that the most of the collapse failures occur due to the lack of strength of the pile foundation. However, when the jacket platforms which have been collapsed due to extreme condition were looked into, it was found that most of them had their foundations intact. These contrasting facts can be explained with the help of the phenomenon ...

Effect of Passive Pile on 3D Ground Deformation and on Active Pile Response

Using a series of model tests, this study investigated the effect of a passive pile on 3D ground deformation around a laterally loaded pile and on that laterally loaded pile's response in sand. The active pile head was subjected to lateral loads, and the passive pile was arranged in front of the active pile. In the model tests, the distance between the two pile centers was set to zero (i.e., a ...

Torsional Pile Subjected to Transient Loading in Viscoelastic Poroelastic Medium

Considering viscoelastic saturated soil, The transient dynamic response of an elastic pile is studied. The pile-soil system is divided into thin layers, the control equations of the soil are solved respectively by using Laplace transform. Considering the mixed boundary-value conditions at the interface of pile and soil, expression is derived to describe the relationship between the inner force ...
