Abstract
A simple, efficient method is presented for the analysis of large pile groups subjected to vertical loads, horizontal loads, and moments acting either statically or dynamically with low frequencies. The soil profile and the arrangement of the piles may be arbitrary but the solution is particularly efficient for groups with double symmetry or axisymmetry. The group is analyzed directly, avoiding the use of interaction factors, but the interaction factors are also presented. The piles can be of any type, i.e., floating, end-bearing, socketed, or with a pedestal.

Nonlinear analysis for dynamic lateral pile response

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of pile lateral response to transient dynamic loading and to harmonic loading is presented allowing for nonlinear soil behavior, discontinuity conditions at the pile-soil interface and energy dissipation through different types of damping.

Dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction. part i: analysis of axial vibration

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method for computing the dynamic steady-state axial response of floating pile groups embedded in homogeneous and non-homogeneous soil deposits is presented, which is essentially independent of pile flexibility and slenderness.

Analysis of capped pile groups subjected to horizontal and vertical loads

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of analysis for an off-ground cap supported by piles embedded in a layered soil and subjected to horizontal and vertical loads is presented, where the cap is modelled as a thin plate and the piles as elastic beams and the soil is treated as consisting of horizontal layers of different materials.

Pile Foundation Analysis and Design

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a consistent theoretical approach to the prediction of pile deformation and load capacity, and present parametric solutions for a wide range of cases, demonstrating how such solutions can be used for design purposes, and review the applicability of these approaches to practical problems.

The response of flexible piles to lateral loading

Mark Randolph
- 01 Jun 1981 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a parametric study was conducted using the finite element method and treating the soil as an elastic continuum with a linearly varying soil modulus, and the results of a simple algebraic expression for the active length of the pile; the ground level deformations; and the maximum bending moment down the pile were presented.

Analysis of the Settlement of Pile Groups

Harry G. Poulos

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the settlement interaction between two identical piles in an elastic mass and the increase in settlement of each pile due to interaction is expressed in terms of an interaction factor α.
