A boundary element analysis on the influence of Krc and e/d on the performance of cyclically loaded single pile in clay
The environment prevalent in oceans necessitates the piles supporting offshore structures to be designed against lateral cyclic loading initiated by wave action. Such quasi-static load reversal induces deterioration in the strength and stiffness of the soil-pile system, introducing progressive reduc...
