Numerical Analysis of Pile Behavior under Lateral Loads in Layered ElasticPlastic Soils

This paper presents results from a ¯nite element study on the behavior of a single pile in elastic plastic soils. Pile behavior in uniform sand and clay soils as well as cases with and layer in clay deposit and clay layer in sand deposit were analyzed and cross compared to investigate layering erects. Finite element results were used to generate p ¡ y curves and then compared with those obtained from methods commonly used in practice.
