Offshore anchor piles are seafloor moorings that keep the position of floating structures during a harsh environment. These piles are usually subjected to a wide range of monotonic and cyclic lateral-to-oblique pullout forces. Centrifuge tests were carried out to study the behavior of offshore anchor piles under mooring forces in saturated dense sand. The tests were carried out at different loa...

Compared with conventional piles such as the circle pile, the cast-in-place large-diameter pile (PCC pile) has many advantages: the lateral area of PCC pile is larger and the bearing capacity of PCC pile is higher. It is more cost-effective than other piles such as square pile under the same condition. The deformation of the PCC pile is very important for its application. In order to obtain the...

In this paper, the shaking table tests of a Seismic–Soil–Pile–Superstructure Interaction (SSPSI) in medium-soft and hard base soil were carried out. Silted clay with unit weight 1.70 g/cm3 shear wave velocity 175 m/s was adopted to simulate soil, while composite obtained by adding 20% quicklime silted 1.75 300 tests. By inputting artificial seismic motion time history different amplitudes synth...

alcohol production from molasses can lead to large amounts of wastewater that cause serious environmental concern. it is characterized with extremely high organic loading rate, high turbidity and dark brown color .composting this kind of wastewater is a biothermal aerobic process that during composting heat generated by the composition of the organic material reduces the moisture content of the...

Considering viscoelastic saturated soil, The transient dynamic response of an elastic pile is studied. The pile-soil system is divided into thin layers, the control equations of the soil are solved respectively by using Laplace transform. Considering the mixed boundary-value conditions at the interface of pile and soil, expression is derived to describe the relationship between the inner force ...

The present study aims to obtain p-y curves (Winkler spring properties for lateral pile-soil interaction) liquefied soil from 12 comprehensive centrifuge test cases where pile groups were embedded in liquefiable soil. curve fully is back-calculated the dynamic data using a numerical procedure recorded response and strain records instrumented pile. obtained two ground conditions: (a) spreading o...

The stiffness and damping of pile foundations are proposed, which vary with the ratio of shear modulus Gi / Go to indicate the nonlinear properties of soil. The range of Gi / Go is defined with different vibration intensities for applications, and a computer program DYNAN is available based on the boundary zone model with non-reflective interface. Two engineering cases are studied to illustrate...
