Book Three dimensional Non linear Finite Element Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Clay

Download or read book Three dimensional Non linear Finite Element Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Clay written by Sujit Kumar Bhowmik and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavior of laterally loaded single piles and pile groups in fine grained soils are investigated using a non-linear finite element methodology. The purpose is to gather behavioral information that would help improve our knowledge of pile behavior and enhance the applicability of some existing methods of analysis. A three-dimensional non-linear finite element program, PILE3D, has been developed. An anisotropically hardening bounding surface plasticity model is used to model soil behavior. Behavior of soil-pile interface is modeled using thin isoparametric elements. Various geotechnical loading and boundary conditions including drained and undrained loading, water table, in-situ stresses, preconsolidation and formation of gap at the soil-pile interface, have been implemented. Two full-scale laterally loaded pile tests are analyzed using two- and three-dimensional idealizations and results are compared with observed pile behavior. Good agreement is obtained between measured and computed bending moment, soil resistance and lateral deflection along the length of the pile, load-deflection response at the pile-head and p-y curves at different depths. Influence on the behavior of the pile-soil system of flexural rigidity and diameter of the pile, shear strength, lateral pressure coefficient, friction angle and preconsolidation of the soil, and gap formation behind the pile at the soil-pile interface are investigated. Results are compared with some existing criteria for the determination of p-y curves. Effect of interaction between the individual piles in a group is studied using three different configurations: (i) an $infty$ x 1 group, (ii) a 1 x $infty$ group and (iii) an $infty$ x $infty$ group. Influence of spacing between the piles in a group is investigated. Results are compared with some existing theoretical solutions and with results of full-scale and model-scale pile load tests. Interactions factors are developed to adjust single pile p-y curves to account for group interaction.

Book Dynamic Nonlinear Analysis of Pile Foundations Using Finite Element Method in the Time Domain

Download or read book Dynamic Nonlinear Analysis of Pile Foundations Using Finite Element Method in the Time Domain written by and published by . 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.

Book Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Multilayered Soil Deposits

Download or read book Analysis of Laterally Loaded Piles in Multilayered Soil Deposits written by Dipanjan Basu and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report focuses on the development of a new method of analysis of laterally loaded piles embedded in a multi-layered soil deposit treated as a three-dimensional continuum. Assuming that soil behaves as a linear elastic material, the governing differential equations for the deflection of laterally loaded piles were obtained using energy principles and calculus of variations. The differential equations were solved using both the method of initial parameters and numerical techniques. Soil resistance, pile deflection, slope of the deflected pile, bending moment and shear force can be easily obtained at any depth along the entire pile length. The results of the analysis were in very good agreement with three-dimensional finite element analysis results. The analysis was further extended to account for soil nonlinearity. A few simple constitutive relationships that allow for modulus degradation with increasing strain were incorporated into the analysis. The interaction of piles in groups was also studied.

Book Dynamic Elastic Analysis of Pile Foundations Using Finite Element Method in the Frequency Domain

Download or read book Dynamic Elastic Analysis of Pile Foundations Using Finite Element Method in the Frequency Domain written by and published by . 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.
