✦ Synopsis

This paper includes an analysis of the influence of soil plasticity on the seismic response of micropiles. Analysis is carried out using a global three-dimensional modeling in the time domain. The soil behavior is described using the non-associated Mohr-Coulomb criterion. Both the micropiles and the superstructure are modeled as three-dimensional beam elements. Proper boundary conditions are used to ensure waves transmission through the lateral boundaries of the soil mass. Analyses are first conducted for harmonic loadings and then for real earthquake records. They show that plasticity could have a significant influence on the seismic response of the soil-micropiles-structure systems. This influence depends on the amplitude of the seismic loading and the dominant frequencies of both the input motion and the soil-piles-structure system.

Soil conditions have a great deal to do with damage to structures during earthquakes. This paper attempts to assess the influence of dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI) on the behavior of seismically isolated cable-stayed bridge supported on a rigidly capped vertical pile groups, which pass thr
