Abstract:
A rigorous mathematical model is developed to analyze the kinematic response of monopiles embedded in the seabed under vertically incident P-waves. The seabed is considered to consist of nearly saturated soil, in which the mixture of pore water and dissolved air bubbles is treated as a homogeneous fluid phase. The governing equations of soil and pile are formulated using the Biot's poroelastodynamic theory and one-dimensional bar vibration theory, respectively. The frictional forces between the inner and outer soil layers are derived, and a closed-form series solution for the monopile's vertical seismic response is obtained by applying the boundary conditions of the pile-soil system. The proposed solution is validated through comparisons with existing studies and is subsequently used to explore the effects of key parameters and the role of inner soil on the seismic behavior of the soil-pile system, leading to several significant conclusions.
