Book The Dynamic Behaviour of Pile Foundations in Seismically Liquefiable Soils

Download or read book The Dynamic Behaviour of Pile Foundations in Seismically Liquefiable Soils written by Rohollah Rostami and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter presents a concise overview of the mechanics of failure, analysis and requalification procedures of pile foundations in liquefiable soils during earthquakes. The aim is to build a strong conceptual and technical interpretation in order to gain insight into the mechanisms governing the failure of structures in liquefaction and specify effective requalification techniques. In this regard, several most common failure mechanisms of piles during seismic liquefaction such as bending (flexural), buckling instability and dynamic failure of the pile are introduced. Furthermore, the dynamic response commentary is provided by critically reviewing experimental investigations carried out using a shaking table and centrifuge modelling procedures. The emphasis is placed on delineating the concept of seismic design loads and important aspects of the dynamic behaviour of piles in liquefiable soils. In this context, using Winkler foundation approach with the proposed p,Äìy curves and finite-element analyses in conjunction with numerical analysis methods, are outlined. Moreover, the feasibility of successful remediation techniques for earthquake resistance is briefly reviewed in light of the pile behaviour and failure. Finally, practical recommendations for achieving enhanced resistance of the seismic response of pile foundation in liquefiable soil are provided.

Book Design of Pile Foundations in Liquefiable Soils

Download or read book Design of Pile Foundations in Liquefiable Soils written by Gopal Madabhushi and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pile foundations are the most common form of deep foundations that are used both onshore and offshore to transfer large superstructural loads into competent soil strata. This book provides many case histories of failure of pile foundations due to earthquake loading and soil liquefaction. Based on the observed case histories, the possible mechanisms of failure of the pile foundations are postulated. The book also deals with the additional loading attracted by piles in liquefiable soils due to lateral spreading of sloping ground. Recent research at Cambridge forms the backbone of this book with the design methodologies being developed directly based on quantified centrifuge test results and numerical analysis.The book provides designers and practicing civil engineers with a sound knowledge of pile behaviour in liquefiable soils and easy-to-use methods to design pile foundations in seismic regions. For graduate students and researchers, it brings together the latest research findings on pile foundations in a way that is relevant to geotechnical practice.

Book Single Piles in Liquefiable Ground

Download or read book Single Piles in Liquefiable Ground written by Rui Wang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-17 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on the seismic response of piles in liquefiable ground. It describes the design of a three-dimensional, unified plasticity model for large post-liquefaction shear deformation of sand, formulated and implemented for parallel computing. It also presents a three-dimensional, dynamic finite element analysis method for piles in liquefiable ground, developed on the basis of this model,. Employing a combination of case analysis, centrifuge shaking table experiments and numerical simulations using the proposed methods, it demonstrates the seismic response patterns of single piles in liquefiable ground. These include basic force-resistance mode, kinematic and inertial interaction coupling mechanism and major influence factors. It also discusses a beam on the nonlinear Winkler foundation (BNWF) solution and a modified neutral plane solution developed and validated using centrifuge experiments for piles in consolidating and reconsolidating ground. Lastly, it studies axial pile force and settlement during post-earthquake reconsolidation, showing pile axial force to be irrelevant in the reconsolidation process, while settlement is process dependent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundation conditions and structural constraints often require the use of pile foundations to support the structure and to minimize objectionable settlements. The accurate prediction of foundation performance and the effective interpretation of field load tests are urgent economic and technical needs of geotechnical engineering practice. This study represents the final phase of an investigation into the analysis of pile load tests. Overall study objectives have been: (a) to compile and make available to the Corps of Engineers (CE) offices the results of pile load tests performed by CE offices and other investigators; (b) to review analytical solutions for determining pile load capacity; (c) to compare pile load tests results with theoretical solutions; (d) to develop improved methods for conducting and interpreting pile load tests; and (e) to develop design guidelines.
