Abstract
This paper presents a new model to analyze the nonlinear interaction between a vertical cylindrical pile subjected to lateral harmonic loading and its embedment soil. The pile toe is either pinned or clamped to idealize its support on bedrock. The soil mass is decomposed into an inner soil zone around the pile where soil nonlinearity is portrayed by a hyperbolic model and a linearly elastic outer soil zone. A numerical solution is obtained using the finite difference method. The results obtained by the suggested approach are then compared with those derived from an analytical approach developed by Nogami and Novak (1977).
