The Behavior of Suction Bucket under Cyclic Loading in Saturated Lands
Numerical modeling was carried out to investigate the responses of suction bucket foundations under vertical cyclic loading. Numerical results were compared with centrifuge experiment results. Before the capacity of the model suction bucket to resist cyclic loading could be investigated, the static pullout capacities had to be determined. The buckets with different aspect ratio are investigated...
متن کاملCentrifuge modelling of long piles subjected to lateral loading with high load eccentricity in sand
In this research paper, five centrifuge lateral loading tests of long piles with a considerable load eccentricity were carried out in the sand to investigate the impacts of the load eccentricity and pile length changes on the lateral behavior of a flexible pile beside the determination of experimental p-y curves. Comparing experimental test results with the recommended API (American Petroleum ...
متن کاملNumerical modelling of multi-directional earthquake loading and its effect on sand liquefaction
Earthquakes generate multi-directional ground motions, two components in the horizontal direction and one in the vertical. Nevertheless, the effect of vertical motion on site response analysis has not been the object of extensive research. The 2010/2011 Canterbury sequence of seismic events in New Zealand is a prime example among other earlier field observations strongly corroborating that the ...
متن کاملNumerical and Experimental Study on Ratcheting Behavior of Plates with Circular Cutouts under Cyclic Axial Loading
In this paper, accumulation of plastic deformation of AISI 1045 steel plates with circular cutouts under cyclic axial loading is studied. Loading was applied under force-control conditions. Experimental tests were performed using a Zwick/Roell servo hydraulic machine. Under force-control loading with nonzero mean force, plastic strain was accumulated in continuous cycles called ratcheting. Nume...
متن کاملAn Investigation into the Pull-out Failure Mechanisms of Suction Caissons
This paper reports results from an investigation into the suction caissons failure mechanisms under vertical pull-out loads. An insight to the failure mechanisms of suction caissons paves the path for developing analytical solutions to their pull-out capacity. The numerical models of suction caissons have first been calibrated by and verified against several experimental data from other researc...
