A 2D DEM mono-pile model under combined loading condition [PDF]

, 2014
This paper presents a 2D-Discrete Element Method (DEM) model that is used to study situations when vertical, lateral and combined loads are applied to a rigid mono-pile.

Lateral Load-Bearing Performance of a Long Pile in Layered Soils Based on the Modified Vlasov Foundation Model

Applied Sciences
A mechanical model of a laterally loaded long pile in layered soils was established to accurately calculate the lateral load-bearing performance of the pile foundation, and attention was paid to the influence of the complete separation of the pile–soil ...

A new teaching concept for axially loaded piles [PDF]

, 2015
It is a common feature of teaching methodologies to divide the content into modules for lectures or book sections. However, these divisions are often not intrinsic to the real problems.

Lateral Cyclic Loading of Sand-Installed Piles

Soils and Foundations, 2007
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 ...

A new p-y model for soil-pile interaction analyses in cohesionless soils under monotonic loading

Soils and Foundations
The most widely used analysis method for the laterally loaded pile problem is the Winkler spring approach. Although researchers have proposed nonlinear formulations for the p-y curves, the contribution of the soil nonlinearity has not been thoroughly ...

In situ root identification through blade penetrometer testing – Part 1:interpretative models and laboratory testing [PDF]

, 2017
Root architecture and reinforcement are important parameters to measure the safety of vegetated slopes and stream banks against slope instability and erosion or to assess the stability of plants against environmental loading (e.g.

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems [PDF]

, 1995
One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension.
