Pile groups under cyclic lateral loading

Viac o knihe

The research investigates the bearing behavior of pile groups under cyclic lateral loading, focusing on the effects of soil properties and pile geometry. It includes a literature review, experimental model tests (centrifuge and 1g small-scale) conducted in Australia and Germany, and a comparison of results. The study also features numerical analyses to assess simulation capabilities for predicting pile group responses. Finally, it presents equations for estimating lateral displacement accumulation and load distribution changes in pile groups.
