Winkler Soil Model for Axial Response Analysis of Pile Groups

by Toyoaki Nogami, Univ of Houston, Houston, TX, USA,
Stephen K. Paulson, Univ of Houston, Houston, TX, USA,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Analysis and Design of Pile Foundations

Abstract:

In this approach, the soil is idealized as a nonlinear Winkler model for a pile group attached to a group of piles. The model can account for pile-soil-pile interaction. Pile group responses are compared with those obtained idealizing the soil as an elastic continuous medium. The reponses are also compared with a full-scale field load test.
