PILEDYN (PILE group linear DYNamic analysis)

PILEDYN is a software package for PILE group linear DYNamic analysis in the frequency domain based on an advantageous BEM-FEM model for soil-pile interaction:

The software package is comprised of three modules:
  • Pre-processor: GUI-based (MATLAB) or command-line file-based (MATLAB/Octave).
  • Solver: command-line file-based (executables for 64-bit GNU/Linux or Windows).
  • Post-processor: command-line file-based (MATLAB/Octave).
  • In the present version 1.0, it obtains impedance functions of pile groups with one quarter symmetry.
