Abstract: This paper proposes a semianalytical solution to analyze the long-term settlement of a single pile embedded in fractional derivative viscoelastic soils under time-dependent loading. In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) ...

Abstract: The uniform arrangement of pile groups widely used in practice often causes obvious differential settlement of pile foundations. To decrease differential settlement of pile groups, individual piles nonuniformly arranged ...

Abstract: Excavation beneath an existing building to add a new basement is an effective mean to expand underground space that caters to the increased need of space in urban areas. Because piles serve as load-bearing structures in ...
