Taking the every arranged uplift pile in a practical project for example and selecting the column strip on the scale board as the research object, this paper analysis mainly focuses on the pullout capacity of piles at different locations with different vertical loads from columns by using the Winkler elastic foundation beam model. The results show that design with assumption that uplift piles evenly share the net buoyance would lead to successive failure of the piles. Then further parametric analysis was conducted to study the influence of stiffness, thickness and column space on the vertical forces of piles. The conclusions could provide positive reference to related uplift pile design.

Free vibrations of straight beams which are partially supported by an elastic foundation are analyzed. For the sake of simplicity, only the Euler–Bernoulli beam model coupled with a Winkler-type elastic foundation is considered. This structural system can be used to study, in a rather accurate way, the dynamic response of partially embedded piles (like those used for telecommunications) when dealing with the problem of identifying their mechanical properties during operative conditions. The study makes clear that different kinds of vibration modes may occur in the part of the beam which is supported by the continuous elastic foundation: indeed apart from the classical modes, corresponding to the dynamics of a free beam, it is possible to have vibration modes which are similar to the static deflection of a beam on an elastic support or even corresponding to rigid-body modes. For the same beam it is shown that transition between these vibration modes can appear when switching from the fundamental natural frequency to subsequent ones. This effect is the focus of the presented numerical examples. In particular, the analytic expression of the transcendental functions governing the vibration modes, and of the coefficients of the eigenfunctions for all occurring cases, are given here — to the best of the author's knowledge — for the first time. From the practical point of view, the reported results allow to define a suitable range of the elastic stiffness parameter such that the behavior of a partially supported beam can be conveniently approximated with that of a single-span beam, having one built-in end and the other free.

The main objective of the paper is to develop the mathematical analysis of the response of a metallic stent subject to axisymmetric loads over its length and to different boundary conditions. These situations introduce bending stresses in the stent and cannot be captured by a model of the stent that can be used to characterize the pressure-diameter relationship under axially uniform loading. The analysis presented here is based on an analogy between a thin-walled pressure vessel and a beam on elastic foundation; in the present application, we derive an equivalent beam model for the bending response of a stent. Using this model, we evaluate the shape of the stent exiting the catheter as well as the variation of the diameter along the length of the stent constrained by stiff end supports. This approach can be used to evaluate the coupled response of the stent and the blood vessel, if the mechanical properties of the blood vessel are known. The coupled problem and its implications in the design of stents are discussed.
