In this article, the effects of pile spacing, number of piles, and configuration on displacement and bending response of pile groups in clay under dynamic lateral loading were investigated, and strong group interaction leads to significant differences in bending profiles of different row piles of the groups.
Abstract
The effects of pile spacing, number of piles, and configuration on displacement and bending response of pile groups in clay under dynamic lateral loading were investigated. The displacement response of pile group in clay is strongly nonlinear. Pile-soil-pile interaction is predominant for the groups with closer spacing and with greater number of piles. Group interaction causes reduction in the group stiffness and increase in damping of the pile group. Strong group interaction leads to significant differences in bending profiles of different row piles of the groups. Dynamic lateral loading increases the maximum bending moment and active pile length.

Dynamic experimental studies on lateral behaviour of batter piles in soft clay

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of small scale dynamic experiments have been carried out on 2 × 1 model aluminum batter pile group embedded in soft clay, and it was found that the peak lateral displacement and peak bending strain at resonance region decrease with an increase in the batter angle.

Comparison on the Horizontal Behaviors of Lattice-Shaped Diaphragm Wall and Pile Group under Static and Seismic Loads

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical study of the comparison of the static and seismic responses of LSDW and pile group under similar material quantity in soft soil was conducted. And it was found that the horizontal bearing capacity of LSDw is considerably larger than that of pile group, while pile group clearly shows a local bending deformation pattern during the static loading process.

Dynamic lateral response of a pile group in clay

TL;DR: In this article, a series of lateral dynamic loading tests were conducted on a rigid concrete cap supported by nine 273mm-diameter steel pipe piles in a square group, and the piles were driven 13.7 m into a layered deposit of overconsolidated clay.

Observed and Predicted Response of Piles Under Dynamic Loads

TL;DR: In this paper, the response of the pile was calculated using the commonly used approach of Novak (1974, 1977), Novak and El-Sharnouby (1983), and a comparison with the observed data was made.
