This study presents a multi-effect coupling model to optimize the design of geosynthetic-reinforced pile-supported embankment (GRPSE) considering effects soil arching, membranes, and pile–soil interaction on coastal highway. The developed could GRPSE fulfill construction requirements at relatively low project cost. was achieved by adjusting critical factors that govern settlement GRPSEs, such a...

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 ...

The settlement of a group pile foundation is the result elastic-plastic and rheological soil. Unfortunately, most research only considers elasto-plasticity piles or soils. Classical theories like Poynting-Thompson model provide some prediction for behavior groups, which cannot satisfactorily reflect total characteristics foundation. In current paper, we presented method to study behaviors in li...

The belled anchor pile has proficient application in the field of geotechnical engineering as because its enlarged base can bear more compressive loads and large volume of breakout soil within slip surface move upward under tension. The bell anchor pile can be used in case of on-land and off-shore structures where there is a threat to overturning of structures due to external tension loads. The...

Dynamic response records of pile performance during earthquakes are limited mainly due to the challenges recording seismic soil–pile response. This limitation has led an inadequacy in providing a standardized basis for calibration and validation available analytical numerical methods developed superstructure interaction problems. To bridge this gap, series simulations scaled, shaking table test...

Abstract Until recently, the behavior of connected piled raft foundation was not fully understood in seismically active region due to complex dynamic soil–pile–foundation structure interaction. This concern arises when soil deposit-supported foundations are stratified or heterogynous and subjected high ground motion intensity. In current study, a series numerical analyses using ABAQUS software ...

Abstract: According to the Winkler assumption, the form of the pile constraint could be simplified as bottom fixing and top free. Considering the influence from resistance of soil around pile, the equations on calculated length for buckling stability of steel pipe pile when the portions along the pile length were constrained in the uniform foundation and the layered foundation were respectively...

this research examines the behavior of soil-reinforced piles and applied loads based on the analytical method and by using the numerical results of flac3d software for comparison with the analytical results. the analysis was based on a method called virtual retaining wall, the following into consideration: an imaginary retaining wall that passes the footing edge the bearing capacity of footing ...
