Nonlinear investigation of laterally loaded piles in layered sand with a modified conical strain wedge model

Xun Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a modified conical strain wedge model for analyzing the nonlinear behavior of laterally loaded piles in layered sand. The model incorporates the layers in the wedge and provides a new expression for the subgrade reaction modulus based on soil strain using force balance analysis and the Duncan-Chang model. By combining this model with a finite difference model for a one-dimensional beam on a nonlinear elastic foundation, an iterative procedure is developed to predict the nonlinear response of laterally loaded piles. The proposed method outperforms existing analytical methods in predicting the nonlinear behavior, as demonstrated by comparisons with full-scale field tests and laboratory model tests.

Analysis of laterally loaded piles in sand considering the relationship between the strain wedge model and failure wedge model

Pan Liu et al.

Summary: This paper presents an analytical method for laterally loaded piles in sand, utilizing a combination of strain wedge model and failure wedge model. A 3D finite element analysis is conducted to determine the evolution process from strain wedge model to failure wedge model, and establish the relationship between them considering the continuity of soil resistance. Two failure patterns in the evolution from strain wedge model to failure wedge model are discussed. The accuracy of the new method is validated through two centrifuge tests, showing remarkable agreement.

A lateral soil resistance model for XCC pile in soft clay considering the effect of the geometry of cross section

Peng Zhou et al.

Summary: This paper utilizes well-calibrated finite-element analyses to study the influence of cross section geometry on the load transfer mechanism of X-section Cast-in-place Concrete (XCC) pile under lateral load in soft clay. A lateral soil resistance model is proposed based on the results, which investigate the failure mechanism of soil flow and the ultimate lateral soil pressure. Additionally, a general p-y formula for XCC pile that considers various cross section geometries is developed, showing that XCC pile is more effective in resisting lateral load compared to traditional circular cross section piles.

Analytical model for laterally loaded pile groups in layered sloping soil

Mart-Jan Hemel et al.

Summary: The historic canal wall structures in many Northern European cities have been built using masonry walls on timber decks founded on timber piles. A proposed analytical method has been developed to model laterally loaded pile groups in layered sloping soil. The method accurately predicts bending moment distributions and deflections, and has been validated with experimental tests. Its speed makes it suitable for probabilistic simulations and determining the failure probability of quay walls or structures with horizontally loaded piles.

Dynamic torsional impedance of large-diameter pipe pile for offshore engineering: 3D analytical solution

Yunpeng Zhang et al.

Summary: This study proposes a novel 3D torsional soil-pile interaction model and derives the corresponding analytical solution for the 3D dynamic torsional impedance at the pile cross-section. The solution is validated against existing solutions and the study concludes that the classic one-dimensional theory overestimates the impedance of the pipe pile and that the impedance varies in the radial direction at the pile cross-section.

Effect of the pile diameter and slope on the undrained lateral response of the Large-Diameter pile

Bowen Sun et al.

Summary: A new P-y curve for the lateral static loading of large diameter piles in cohesive slopes is proposed in this study, considering both the size effect and slope inclination. By conducting three-dimensional finite difference analyses with varying pile size and slope inclination, the behavior of large-diameter pile foundations under lateral loading on cohesive sloping ground is studied. Based on numerical calculations, the pile-soil failure mechanism is discussed and nonlinear analytical formulations for the ultimate lateral load and initial stiffness of hyperbolic P-y curves at different depths are derived, taking into account both the size effect and slope inclination. The proposed P-y curve is then compiled into a program for parametric analysis of pile displacement and bending moment. The effectiveness of the proposed P-y curve is validated by comparing it with data from large-scale foundation lateral loading field tests and centrifuge tests.

A method for predicting lateral deflection of large-diameter monopile near clay slope based on soil-pile interaction

Pan Liu et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a method to predict the deflection of large-diameter monopile near undrained clay slope under a lateral load, establishing equations of force and moment in each soil-pile interaction. The predictive load-deflection curves are obtained by solving those equations, considering the effect of slope and near-slope distance on the p-y curves. Furthermore, the relationship between ultimate soil resistance and depth, as well as the variation of modulus of horizontal subgrade reaction with depth in front of and behind the pile, are analyzed in detail.
