Abstract: A simplified mechanical model for investigating pile–pile horizontal vibration is developed by combining the Pasternak model and the Timoshenko beam theory, with the consideration of the influence of axial load at the head ...

Abstract: In this paper, we study the seismic behavior of pile group bridges in inclined liquefiable soil and reveal the failure mechanism by conducting large-scale shaking table tests. Two bridge models were supported by two ...

Abstract: Two large-scale shake table experiments were conducted to study the seismic pile group–bridge soil system failure mechanisms and examine the role of soil crust in lateral spreading caused by liquefaction. Pile group–bridge ...
