Axially - Loaded Centrifuge Pile Tests

Laterally loaded rigid piles in cohesionless soil

In this paper, limiting force profile for laterally loaded rigid piles in sand and is differentiated from the on-pile force profile, from which elastic-plastic solutions are established and presented in explicity expressioins. Nonlinear responses of the piles are characterized by slip depths mobilized from mudline and the pile-tip. At the states of tip-yield and rotation point yield, expression...

Probabilistic Reliability Estimation of an Axially Loaded Pile

A new efficient and accurate hybrid reliability method is proposed to estimate risk of an axially loaded single pile considering pile-soil interaction effect. Uncertainties associated with all the design variables are considered appropriately. It intelligently integrates the concepts of the response surface method, the finite difference method, the first-order reliability method, and an iterati...

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...

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...
