By Geotechnical Engineering Modelling Software (GEMS)
Pile Foundations, Deep Foundations, Foundation Design / Construction, Offshore Geotechnics

Description

Advanced and intuitive finite element modelling software for Offshore Pile foundations.  Package includes modules for

  1. Pile Capacity Estimation
  2. Axially Loaded Pile Analysis
  3. Laterally Loaded Pile Analysis 

Available on macOS, windows and on the cloud using a browser

Key Features:

¨     One click computation and analysis for all load cases and modules.

¨     Axial pile capacity estimation

¨     Analysis of the pile foundation under lateral and axial loads.

¨     Generation of p-y, t-z and q-z curves based on soil properties.

¨     User defined p-y, t-z and q-z curves.

¨     Multiple load cases.

¨     Graded mesh for lateral pile analysis along the pile length for better accuracy

¨     Pictorial representation of the pile and soil layers.

¨     Loading diagrams for each load case.

¨     Export of results to Microsoft Word & Excel

¨     Support of Windows and Mac

¨     The loading may consist of axial load, lateral load and lateral moment.

¨     Static and cyclic loadings can be incorporated for lateral analysis.

¨     Self-weight of pile may be included if required.

¨     Local scour consideration.

¨     Pile thickness can be varied along the length of the pile.

¨     Facility of prescribing lateral displacement, rotation & rotational spring at the pile head.

¨     Consideration of group effect by user prescribed p-multiplier, y-multiplier & z-multiplier.
