Lateral Cyclic Loading of Sand-Installed Piles
The present study was conducted to examine the behaviour of instrumented flexible piles in dry sand under lateral cyclic loading using centrifuged models. Considering load service conditions, the influence of the number of cycles of their amplitude and of the soil density on the pile cap displacement and the maximum bending moment of the pile is ...

Effects of relative density and accumulated shear strain on post-liquefaction residual deformation [PDF]
The damage caused by liquefaction, which occurs following an earthquake, is usually because of settlement and lateral spreading. Generally, the evaluation of liquefaction has been centered on settlement, that is, residual volumetric strain.

The soil behind the retaining wall may be subjected to various cyclic loadings, for example, machine vibration, traffic and earthquake loading. To reduce soil deformation and improve the stability of a soil retaining wall, geosynthetics have been widely ...

Inclination Effect of Cyclic Load Synchronous with Lateral Static Load on Pile Group in Sandy Soil
In general Pile foundations are often subject to more than one load in nature. Two loadings, when simultaneous, cause serious problems in the bearing capacity.

Numerical Modelling of Reinforced Concrete Slender Walls Subjected to Coupled Axial Tension–Flexure
Under strong earthquakes, reinforced concrete (RC) walls in high-rise buildings, particularly in wall piers that form part of a coupled or core wall system, may experience coupled axial tension–flexure loading.

An approach for 2D modelling of laterally loaded piles
Despite a considerable progress in the analysis and design of monopiles, many methods are based on complex mathematical structures with doubtful or hard assumptions to verify.

A model test study on the parameters affecting the cyclic lateral response of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines embedded in non-cohesive soils [PDF]
During their service life, monopiles supporting offshore wind turbines are subjected to a large number of lateral cyclic loads resulting from complex environmental conditions such as wind and waves varying in amplitude, direction, load eccentricity and ...
