Investigation on pile-soil-tunnel interaction due to adjacent loaded pile row by 3D FEM

3D FEM Analysis of a Pile-Supported Riverine Platform under Environmental Loads Incorporating Soil-Pile Interaction

An existing riverine platform in Egypt, together with its pile group foundation, is analyzed under environmental loads using 3D FEM structural analysis software incorporating soil-pile interaction. The interaction between the transfer plate and the piles supporting the platform is investigated. Two connection conditions were studied assuming fixed or hinged connection between the piles and the ...

Vertical Vibration Analysis of Soil-pile Interaction Systems Considering the Soil-pile Interface Behavior

A numerical method is presented herein to study soil-pile interaction systems in a stratified media. The method is based on a coupling of the finite element method and the boundary element method. The near field is modeled by the finite elements whereas the far field is modeled by the boundary dement formulation using the multi-layer dynamic fimdamental solution that satisfies the radiation con...

Modeling soil pile bioremediation

A model is presented for the analysis of bioremediation applied to an ex situ soil pile. The approach is based on the remediation of a pile containing the contaminated soil, which has been excavated from its original location, placed atop a bottom liner system and encapsulated with an impermeable cover. The liner system contains and isolates the contaminated soil and provides process control po...

Axially - Loaded Centrifuge Pile Tests

Benchmarking of FEM Technique Involving Deep Excavation, Pile- soil Interaction and Embankment Construction

Three case studies involving the use of numerical models are presented in this paper. First, a comparison of FE modelling of a deep excavation is made using 2-D finite element software, SAGE-CRISP and PLAXIS. In the second study, benchmarking is made between results obtained from 2-D FE modelling using PLAXIS and well-established 3-D centrifuge studies for the case of an existing single pile an...
