INFLUENCE OF THE LATERAL STIFFNESS OF PILES FOR ANALYSIS OF FRAMEWORK SYSTEMS ACCORDING TO SECOND ORDER THEORY
The paper presents a calculation of a system supported on piles according to the second order theory. The influence of piles as supports on the structure is replaced by elastic supports. In the numerical model, the supports are modeled as elastic springs. To compare the calculation results, a system based on rigid and deformable supports was analyzed. The analysis of the system was performed according to the first order theory and the second order theory, which introduces geometric nonlinearity into the calculation. The process of soil modeling around a pile with replacement springs is presented. The applicability of the described procedure is shown in a numerical example. The comparison of the calculation results was done on numerical models of systems with rigid and elastic supports.
