In this paper, numerical analysis of a pile-soil interaction problem is presented considering the parameters influencing the axial load-deformation behavior of the pile embedded in a layered soil medium. The analysis is demonstrated with parametric solutions of a pile with underlain model soil strata under the axial force. An attempt is made to ascertain the extent of influence of elastic prope...

in this paper effect of pile-soil consideration in obtaining seismic response offshore structure is assessed due to earthquake loading. inducedseismic force is one of the most important excitations for the dynamic response of an offshore structure. according to api, seismic forces should be accounted in platform design for seismically active regions in order to determine the allowable seismic r...

The research on damages of structures that are supported by deep foundations has been quite intensive in the past decade. Kinematic interaction in soil-pile interaction is evaluated based on the p-y curve approach. Existing p-y curves have considered the effects of relative density on soil-pile interaction in sandy soil. The roughness influence of the surface wall pile on p-y curves has not bee...

For pile foundations subjected to lateral loads, an analysis method should account for the response of the combined soil-pile system. Current practice for pile-soil interaction analysis usually employs a series of springs to model the lateral behavior of soil-pile interaction. In this method, the force (p) – deformation (y) function, widely known as p-y curve, of the spring characterizes the pi...

previous case histories have shown that soil liquefaction severely damaged many structures supported on pile foundations during earthquakes. as a result, evaluating the potential for instability is an important consideration for the safe and resistant design of deep foundation against earthquakes. in this study, the liquefaction susceptibility of saturated sand interacting by single concrete pi...

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,...

in this paper, pile behavior embedded in layered soil deposits subjected to seismic loadings is analyzed using a nonlinear fiber element for simulation of soil – pile interactions. in the created model, both pile and surrounding soil are modeled using fiber elements in a practical beam on nonlinear winkler foundation (bnwf) concept. herein, the features of drain–3dx finite element software are ...

An open ended pipe pile can become plugged when sufficient frictional resistance is developed by the inner soil cylinder within the pile (soil plug), thereby preventing further intrusion of the soil into the pile. When plugging occurs in an impact driven pipe pile, a complex interaction between the pile and soil plug takes place, causing the propagating stress wave to undergo an abrupt change. ...

Simple methods of analysis are developed for computing the dynamic steady-state axial response of floating pile groups embedded in homogeneous and non-homogeneous soil deposits. Physically-motivated approximations are introduced to account for the interaction between two individual piles. It is found that such an interaction arises chiefly from the ‘interference’ of wave fields originating alon...
