Abstract: Several aspects of the seismic response of groups containing nonvertical piles are studied, including the lateral pile-head stiffnesses, the “kinematic” pile deformation, and the “inertial” soil-pile-structure response. A ...

Abstract: A framework for the estimation of coseismic deformations in the postliquefaction regime is developed based on an extensive database of available cyclic undrained stress-controlled tests on clean sand samples without static ...
