RISOn the Flexure of a Partially Embedded Bar Under Lateral Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This investigation is concerned with a laterally-loaded bar which is partially embedded in a three-dimensional elastic half space. The loading is assumed to be applied at the unembedded end of ...
Elastodynamic Response of Pile Under Transverse Excitations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic response of a finite flexible pile, partially embedded in an elastic half‐space and under transverse loadings, is discussed. The loadings are applied at the unembedded end of the pile and may, in general, be a ...
Axisymmetric Body-Force Fields in Elastodynamics of Transversely Isotropic Media
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a complete elastodynamic solution for axisymmetric problems under axial body-forces in terms of two retarded potential functions in transversely isotropic media is extended to the ...
Three-Dimensional Green’s Functions for a Multilayered Half-Space in Displacement Potentials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To advance the mathematical and computational treatments of mixed boundary value problems involving multilayered media, a new derivation of the fundamental Green’s functions for the elastodynamic problem is presented. By ...
Continuum Mechanics of Lateral Soil–Pile Interaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A rigorous mathematical formulation is presented for a flexible tubular pile of finite length embedded in a semi-infinite soil medium under lateral loading. In the framework of three-dimensional elastostatics and classical ...
Method of Adaptive-Gradient Elements for Computational Mechanics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For tackling high-gradient, localized, or singular boundary value problems, the concept of an adaptive-gradient (AG) element family is introduced to advance the utility of discretization methods. Capable of encompassing ...

Forced Vertical Vibration of Rigid Discs with Arbitrary Embedment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the investigation of the forced time‐harmonic vertical vibration of a rigid disc embedded at an arbitrary depth in a semi‐infinite medium. By virtue of transform methods, the generalized mixed ...
Nonlinear Finite Deformation Analysis of Beams and Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method for solving the finite‐displacement problem of a curved elastic beam with axial, shear, and flexural deformation subject to distributed and point loads is presented. Within the context of the kinematic assumptions ...
Dynamic Characterization of Vertically Loaded Foundations on Granular Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: By means of scaled modeling on a geotechnical centrifuge, a systematic experimental investigation was conducted to examine the vertical dynamic response of surface foundations on granular soils. From the results of more ...
