DEM modelling of shaft load transfer behavior of rock-socketed piles
Gutiérrez-Ch, J.G., Melentijevic, S., Senent, S., Jimenez, R. Abstract The behavior of rock-socketed piles (RSPs) has been the aim of extensive research through field load tests, centrifuge tests, numerical simulations, etc. In this work, the Distinct Element Method (DEM) is employed to study the load transfer behavior at the shaft of rough rock-socketed piles (RSPs) […]
