Popis: The viscoelastic property of pile-soil interactions is modeled by fractional derivative method and is used to characterize the structural dynamics of pile and rheological behavior of a thawing frozen soil. A study of the thawing frozen soil impacts on pile structure’s dynamic characteristic is carried out. The frequency spectrum analysis and empirical modal decomposition are used to identify the pile structure dynamic properties. The rocking mode vibration in which pile behaviors like rigid body supported by viscoelastic soil is extracted to capture the viscoelastic property of pile-soil interactions. The rocking mode exhibiting time-varying frequency features is modeled with fractional derivative model and the fractional derivative order is identified. This study proposes a quick and reliable method to identify the viscoelastic property of pile-soil interactions.
