Numerical formulation and implementation of Euler‐Bernoulli pile elements considering soil‐structure‐interaction responses

Summary Pile serves as an essential component for transferring loads from superstructures to the soil ground. Proper consideration of soil‐structure interaction (SSI) responses is crucial in evaluating the pile capacity and deflections under external loads. In the current design practices, semi‐empirical or linear‐elastic analyses are utilized, which are often overly conservative and unable to properly consider the nonlinear SSI responses. Thus,...
