Thermo‐Pile: A Numerical Tool for the Design of Energy Piles
Thermo‐Pile was developed to estimate the effects of temperature variations on stresses and strains within pile foundations. The thermomechanical response of the pile is assumed to be thermoelastic and is time‐independent. The soil response is modeled with the load‐transfer method. The load‐transfer method uses load‐transfer curves to represent the soil response. These curves link the displacements of the pile to the mobilized bearing capacities. Thermo‐Pile was validated against two experimental full‐scale in situ experiments: the EPFL test pile under a real building and the Lambeth College test pile. Interactions between energy piles through the rigidity of the supported structure can lead to significant variations in the behavior of the foundation. The simple algorithm employed in Thermo‐Pile offers great opportunities to develop more complex tools by coupling it with other models such as the Euler‐ Bernoulli model for beams.
