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: The paper presents a physically simplified method for computing displacements and structural forces on piles under conditions of lateral spreading triggered by the large seaward displacement of a harbor quay wall. The ...

Abstract: This paper documents three case studies that involve dynamic centrifuge tests that simulated large-scale shaking table tests on soil–pile-structure systems. The large-scale shaking table tests were performed using the ...
