A significant number of cases of damage to piles and pile-supported structures during
earthquakes have been observed, but few instrumented records of the response and …

The evaluation of performance of soil-pile-structure systems under seismic loading is one of
the most complex problems in earthquake engineering. In the most common methodology …

Currently there is a lack of information and experimental data to formulate p–y curves in
multi-directional loading conditions for soft clays. Experimental evidence has shown that uni …

Presented in this paper are results of two centrifuge tests on single piles installed in
unimproved and improved soft clay (a total of 14 piles), with the relative pile–soil stiffness …

The seismic behavior of pile foundations in soft clays is a very complex problem with
interacting piles, soils and superstructure. Using ground improvement, for example, Cement …

Abstract Series of multi-directional pot tests were conducted in soft clay to characterize the
near field soil response during multi-directional soil–pile interaction (Mayoral et al.[19, 22]) …

The evaluation of performance of deep foundation systems under seismic loading is one of
the most complex problems in earthquake engineering, due to the varying degrees of …

The evaluation of the performance of deep foundation systems under seismic loading is a
key issue during the design of important structures located in earthquake regions. With few …

This doctorate program focuses on the nonlinear behavior of seismic soil-structure
interaction of deep foundations with particular emphasis in Quebec soil. Soil-structure …

A presente dissertação consiste num estudo experimental e num estudo numérico não
