Chapter 1Introduction

Wang, Rui

Pages: 1 –24

[Pile foundations are one of the most widely used types of foundations in civil engineering, and has often been used in liquefiable grounds. Traditionally, pile foundations have been considered as an excellent choice for ground improvement in liquefaction susceptible areas due to its advantages...

Chapter 2A Unified Plasticity Model for Large Post-liquefaction Shear Deformation of Sand and Its Numerical Implementation

Wang, Rui

Pages: 25 –53

[This chapter builds on the work of Zhang and Wang (2012) to present the formulation of a unique model that (1) achieves the simulation of post-liquefaction shear deformation based on its physics, allowing the unified description of pre- and post-liquefaction behaviour of sand; (2) directly links...

Chapter 3Analysis of Seismic Single Pile Response in Liquefiable Ground

Wang, Rui

Pages: 55 –89

[The seismic response of single piles in liquefiable ground is investigated in this chapter by conducting centrifuge shaking table tests and numerical simulations. The seismic response of single piles in liquefiable ground is investigated in this chapter by conducting centrifuge shaking table...

Chapter 4Dragload and Downdrag Settlement of Single Piles due to Post-liquefaction Reconsolidation

Wang, Rui

Pages: 91 –116

[A fundamental error with the traditional neutral plane solution is that the neutral plane solution assumes that the pile settlement and soil settlement are equal at the depth of the neutral plane. However, it is the relative velocity, not the relative displacement that must be zero at the...

Chapter 5Conclusions and Future Work

Wang, Rui

Pages: 117 –119

[The analysis of the seismic response of piles in liquefiable ground is an important yet challenging topic in the field of geotechnical earthquake engineering. This dissertation tries to make an effort to improve the understanding of seismic pile behaviour in liquefiable ground by developing high...
