Role of Pile Spacing on Dynamic Behavior of Pile Groups in Layered Soils

Harmonic Response of Pile Groups to Dynamic Loading

A completely general method of analysis for three-dimensional raked piles under harmonic excitation is discussed. The piles have been represented by a three-dimensional frame structure and the soil has been represented by a boundary element discretization scheme. A computer program has been written which carries out this analysis and produces a group stiffness matrix that can be included as a f...

The Effect of a Transient Dynamic Loaded Pile on a Neihbouring Pile for Nonhomogeneous Soils

ABSTRACT This study presents an investigation of the interaction effect of one loaded pile on a neighboring pile under transient dynamic loadings. Analyses are carried for non homogeneous soils. The hybrid boundary element formulation is used to represent boundary integral representation of soil domain and pile equations represented by linear structural components. The formulation is presented ...

Static and Dynamic Lateral Loading of Pile Groups

Title Pile Aging in Cohesive Soils

This technical note presents the results of a field investigation into pile aging in soft clay which was conducted over a period of ten years. Static load tests were conducted after the excess pore pressure generated by the installation of 6 m long driven concrete piles were fully equalised. These tests allowed the time-capacity aging profile to be established. A normalised capacity-time trend ...

Dynamic One-pile Nim

1 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to solve a class of combinatorial games consisting of one-pile counter pickup games for which the maximum number of counters that can be removed on each successive move changes during the play of the game. Two players alternate removing a positive number of counters from the pile. An ordered pair (N, x) of positive integers is called a position. The n...
