Original scientific paper In this paper, based on the overlapping deformation mode of load transfer law of uplift belled pile, and the theory of elastic mechanics, the elastic-plastic analytical solutions of uplift belled pile were derived, and the nonlinear elastic-plastic deformation analysis method was established, which made the deformation analysis theory of uplift belled pile more reasona...

Impact pile driving is a multi-component problem which is associated to multi-directional ground vibrations. At first, vibration is transferred from the hammer to the pile and then to the common interface of pile and soil. This is then transferred to the environment and has great impact on the adjacent structures, causing disturbance to residents and also damage to the buildings. It is of high ...

To study the mechanical characteristics of complex pile-cap foundations and distribution law hydrodynamic pressure acting on piles cap in deep-water environments, 60 m foundation Xihoumen rail-cum-road bridge was considered for this investigation. This paper focused introducing design implementation process simulating an earthquake using underwater shaking-table test a 1 : model systematically ...

Numerous techniques have been presented by different researchers to analyze piled raft. In order to analyze pile foundation, soil can be modeled as spring, continuous medium, or porous media. Pile can also be modeled as spring or continuous medium. This study includes three main stages: a short description of different types of analysis methods of pile foundation, writing a computer program bas...

Dynamic analysis of a pile embedded in a half-space soil covered by a water layer is crucial for the designs of the pile foundations for bridges, docks and offshore platforms etc. In this paper, a coupled boundary element method (BEM) model is developed to evaluate the dynamic response of the pile. In the proposed model, the pile and half-space soil are treated as elastic media, while the water...

This paper proposes an alternative mechanism of pile failure in liquefiable deposits during earthquakes. This failure mechanism, based on pile buckling, is formulated by back-analysing 14 case histories of pile foundation performance during earthquakes and verified using dynamic centrifuge tests. A new parameter, the slenderness ratio of a pile, is introduced to classify pile performance in liq...

Integral bridges are a class of with integral or semi-integral abutments, designed without expansion joints in the bridge deck superstructure. The significance an design is that it avoids durability and recurring maintenance issues joints, maybe bearings, which prevalent traditional bridges. less costly to construct. They require therefore cause traffic disruptions incur socio-economic costs. A...

Many factors such as production methods and structural parameters have distinctive influence on the quality and performance of a hand woven carpet. To investigate the effects of some variables, eighteen samples of carpet vary, in knot density, pile height and percentage of slipe wool, were manufactured. Pile yarn performance was assessed by using load-displacement compression curve, obtained fr...

In this study, a simplified computational model of pile vertical vibration was developed. The model was based on the inhomogeneous radial disturbed zone of soil in the vicinity of a pile disturbed by pile driving. The model contained two regions: the disturbed zone, which was located in the immediate vicinity of the pile, and the undisturbed region, external to the disturbed zone. In the model,...
