Numerical and Experimental Investigations of Granular Anchor Piles in Loose Sandy Soil Subjected to Uplift Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The granular anchor pile (GAP) system is one of the relatively new innovative ground-improvement techniques used to sustain the tensile loads. This paper presents the behavior of a GAP system in a loose sandy soil. The ...
Numerical Analysis of Earth Embankment Resting on Liquefiable Soil and Remedial Measures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Liquefaction-induced ground displacements resulting from earthquake shaking are a major cause of damage to earth structures comprised of, or underlain by, loose saturated granular soils. The present paper describes the ...
Effect of Pile Group Configurations on Nonlinear Dynamic Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) finite-element program has been developed for the dynamic analysis of pile groups. Soil and pile media have been discretized into 3D isoparametric continuum elements. To simulate the stress transfer ...
Experimental Study of Laterally Loaded Pile Group in Square Arrangement near Sloping Ground
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The prediction of the pile response near a slope has not been fully explored and remains challenging for designers. In this study, an experimental investigation is planned to explore the behavior of laterally loaded pile ...
Numerical Investigation of Stone Column Improved Ground for Mitigation of Liquefaction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Installation of a stone column in loose soil is one of the robotics ground enhancement techniques that reduce the risk liquefaction and related ground deformation. However, the experimental investigation is costly and it ...
Numerical Simulation of Earthen Embankment Resting on Liquefiable Soil and Remediation Using Stone Columns
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study aims to predict the effect of liquefaction on an embankment resting on liquefiable foundation soil. A numerical model has been simulated in PLAXIS 2D with plane strain idealization. An effective stress–based ...
Nail Forces and Locus of Maximum Tension of Nailed Cut Subjected to Seismic Excitations: A Calculus Approach with Log-Spiral Failure Surface
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A vertical cut reinforced with inclined nails subjected to seismic loading was analyzed using the modified pseudodynamic approach, assuming a log-spiral failure surface. A novel calculus-based methodology has been devised ...
