tests on model soil-pile-structure systems. Using the proposed method, seismic response characteristics of an idealized offshore piles U P p l e d structure at a sand site were analyzed. Results indicated that liquefaction as well as pore pressure buildup around a pile can have a large impact on the response of pile-supported structures.

Tests included surface tests as well as tests with varyiI~ overburden Iressure, on strip amd circular footings. Experimental results are compared with available analytical methods which are assessed for suitability in the light of these results.

1981, ~.,~3-146o The effect of nonlinear soll behavlour (without sl~ppage of gapping) on the d v ~ m i c response of piles subjected to lateral loads is exI~lored, using a finite element model for the soil region ~d~oining the pile, a consistent boundary m~trix at sO~e distance to reproduce raddation effects, an iterative, equivalent linearization techrdque to estimate the vs.~i~.tion of soil properties with level of strain. Results ob%~ined with this procedure ~re COml>ared with those "~hat would result from application of the ;--y curves and the differences are discussed. Auth.

The proposed l~thod uses equivalent d s m p i ~ which assumes that if the d a m ~ m g in a system is smmll, the total dmnping effect can be re~esented by that of an equivalent damper. 823]53 DRILI>~ SHAFT IN%~GRITY BY WAVE PROPAGatION METHOD He,me, T M; Stokoe, K E; Reese, L C J Ge(f~ech E ~ Div ASCE, Vl0q, NDT!O, (~;t

(Damping factors describe the velocity dependence of point resista~me during driving. ) Ir-situ resistance data of driven piles, co~e penet~ometers and gravity platform skirts, serve as a check on d~unping values found ~n the lsbc~mtory and are useful for providing static point resist~nce values. As a result, p o i ~ dampirg relationships for unplugged ope.D-ended piles in ssnd and clay are proposed. These can then be used to predict pile driveability.
