Reliability based design of driven pile groups using combination of pile driving equations and high strain dynamic pile monitoring
(2013)
Reliability based design (e.g., load and resistance factor design – LRFD) aims at meeting a maximum permissible probability of failure (target reliability) for engineered systems or major elements thereof. For deep ...
The use of CPT to evaluate the effect of helical pile installation in tropical soils
(2013-01-01)
The uplift capacity of helical piles depends on the shear resistance of the soil above the helical plates. During helical pile installation, the soil traversed by the plates are sheared and displaced laterally, and ...

A numerical solution and evaluation of dynamic stiffness of pile groups and comparison to experimental results
(Elsevier, 2017)
A number of solutions and computer programs are already available to determine the dynamic stiffness of complete pile foundations, assuming linear elastic soil behavior and perfect bonding between the piles and the surrounding ...
Analysis of lateral loading of pile groups using embedded beam elements with interaction surface
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2019-01)
The numerical simulation of soil-pile interaction problems, by means of full 3Dfinite element models, involves a large number of degrees of freedom (DOF)and difficulties during the mesh generation process. In order to ...
Feral horses dung piles as potential windows for alien plants in natural grasslands
(Springer, 2008-08)
Small scale disturbances could act as patches that provide sites for the colonization of competitively inferior species, promoting the establishment of non-native species in some cases. We analyzed the vegetation associated ...
Análise paramétrica de grupos de estacas helicoidais à tração
(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do NorteBrasilUFRNEngenharia Civil, 2018-02-28)
Helical piles have advantages over other foundations systems, like high productivity and the possibility of receiving loads immediately after installation. These piles can be integrated into reaction systems for static ...
Dung-pile use by guanacos in eastern Patagonia
(De Gruyter, 2018-11)
Previous studies on guanacos have reported that only territorial males create and maintain dung-piles. The aim of this analysis was to compare dung-pile use by territorial males with the use by females and young in family ...
