Abstract: The Vlasov–Leont’ev foundation model describes the soil displacement field as a product of separable functions and utilizes the calculus of variation to obtain the governing differential equations describing the motion of ...

Abstract: This article demonstrates a new formulation for lateral dynamic stiffness of a pile floating in a homogeneous half-space. In the formulation, the soil domain adjacent to the pile is modeled as a three-dimensional continuum ...

Abstract: A computationally efficient continuum-based model is developed for obtaining the nonlinear response of pile foundations subjected to a static horizontal force and/or moment at the pile head. In the analysis, the soil is ...
