Design of laterally loaded cast-in-place shafts that pass through the reinforcement behind a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall often requires isolation of the shafts from the MSE mass and socketing of the shafts into the underlying stable[...]

There is currently a lack of established calculation methods for the geotechnical design of heat exchanger piles, although the technology is experiencing a fast expansion. Instead of quantifying the effects of temperature changes on the static b[...]

This paper presents the results from an experimental investigation designed to examine the effect of soil-core development and cyclic loading on the shaft resistance developed by open-ended piles in sand. An instrumented open-ended model pile wa[...]

Recent large-magnitude (M> 7) earthquakes have caused numerous failures induced by surface faulting, demonstrating the need to account for tectonic deformation in seismic design. Thanks to their usually high rigidity, embedded (e.g., caisson) fo[...]

The sliding-block model is often used for the prediction of permanent coseismic displacements of natural slopes and earth structures. This model assumes motion in an inclined plane but does not consider the decrease in inclination of the sliding[...]

This study investigates the interaction between soil and pipeline in sand subjected to lateral ground displacements with emphasis on the peak force exerted to a bended elbow-pipe. A series of three-dimensional (3D) finite-element (FE) analyses w[...]

Small-scale tests were carried out on a monopile and fin piles to determine the effect the length of fins had upon the lateral displacement of cyclically loaded piles. A variety of loading conditions were applied to model piles in a dense sand b[...]
