This book was released on 1997 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quasi-three-dimensional method of analysis is presented for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of single piles and pile groups. The analysis is performed in the time domain using strain-dependent moduli and damping, yielding at failure, and a no-tension cutoff. The analysis has been incorporated into the computer program PILE-3D and has been validated using data from centrifuge tests on a single pile and a 2 X 2 pile group under simulated earthquake loading. Analyses of the centrifuge tests demonstrated a significant reduction in soil moduli around the piles during strong shaking and a corresponding reduction in pile stiffnesses. The time-dependent shear modulus distribution in soil around the pile is obtained as part of the output. This allows the time variation of dynamic impedances of pile foundationsduring shaking to be established and allows a realistic assessment of thesingle-valued stiffnesses and damping factors usually incorporated into commercial structural analysis programs for the seismic analysis of pile-supported structures. The analysis also demonstrates the importance of inertial interaction between foundation and structure.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quasi-three-dimensional finite element method of analysis is proposed for the dynamic response analysis of pile foundations that is computationally feasible for practical applications. The method uses a simplified three-dimensional wave equation for describing the dynamic response of the soil. The response of the pile foundation is computed directly without having to use pile-soil-pile interaction factors. The quasi-three-dimensional solution greatly reduces the computational time for the direct analysis of pile groups. The method is presented here for an elastic response so that itcan be validated against existing more exact elastic solutions and low-amplitude field vibration tests. The method is extended to nonlinear dynamicresponse analysis in an accompanying paper.

Download or read book Analysis of Pile Foundations Subject to Static and Dynamic Loading written by Amir M. Kaynia and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents computational tools and design principles for piles used in a wide range of applications and for different loading conditions. The chapters provide a mixture of basic engineering solutions and latest research findings in a balanced manner. The chapters are written by world-renowned experts in the field. The materials are presented in a unified manner based on both simplified and rigorous numerical methods. The first four chapters present the basic elements and steps in analysis of piles under static and cyclic loading together with clear references to the appropriate design regulations in Eurocode 7 when relevant. The analysis techniques cover conventional code-based methods, solutions based on pile-soil interaction springs, and advanced 3D finite element methods. The applications range from conventional piles to large circular steel piles used as anchors or monopiles in offshore applications. Chapters 5 to 10 are devoted to dynamic and earthquake analyses and design. These chapters cover a range of solutions from dynamic pile-soil springs to elasto-dynamic solutions of large pile groups. Both linear and nonlinear soil behaviours are considered along with response due to dynamic loads and earthquake shaking including possible liquefaction. The book is unique in its unified treatment of the solutions used for static and dynamic analysis of piles with practical examples of application. The book is considered a valuable tool for practicing engineers, graduate students and researchers.

Download or read book A Simplified Finite element Approach for the Analysis of Driven Piles written by Toufic Elias Smayra and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis of axially-loaded driven piles is examined in this study using a finite-element model. The three-dimensional model accounts for the nonlinear behavior of the soil undergoing large deformation. The simulation of the penetration of the pile in the soil in the course of driving has been attempted in a previous study; the computational cost was however found excessive, thus, limiting the study to the driving of piles that are already in place (prebored piles). In this research, the penetration of the pile is simulated by gradually expanding a cavity in the soil in the form of the pile, until the desired depth of penetration is reached. The pile is then placed in the cavity to reach equilibrium. The driving of the pile is then continued using a nonlinear time-domain dynamic analysis in which the hammer blows are simulated by a periodic forcing function. A comparison is made between the response of actually (computationally) driven piles and piles driven by the expansion simulation. The response of prebored piles will also be compared with driven piles. The evolution of the state of stress and deformation in the soil and the soil resistance against the pile will be traced at all stages of the analysis.
