THREE-DIMENSIONAL NONLINEAR FINITE ELEMENT MODELING FOR LATERALLY LOADED VERTICAL PILES

This paper presents a study for laterally loaded free head concrete piles using the finite element method (FEM). The finite element mesh is constituted from three-dimensional elements. The pile and soil boundary are defined cylindrically while lateral load is defined as single concentrated load from...
