The state of the art on subject of soil-pile-structure interaction is summarized, and focused on the practical applications in seismic design. The nonlinearity of soil is [...]

One of the most dramatic causes of damage to structures during earthquakes has been the development of liquefaction in deposits of loose and saturated sand. Vibration due [...]

The seismic response of structures supported on a pile foundation is extremely complex, since the soil behavior is non-linear and liquefaction may occur during earthquake [...]
