which FEM tool is best for analyzing axial behavior of rock socketed piles?
I am planning to do some study about the calculations of bearing capacity of rock socketed piles, especially the shor ones. There are two possible approaches to predict tip bearing capacity of short piles embedded into...
I am planning to do some analysis of bahavior of short(l/d<5) rock socketed piles, aiming in the predications of bearing capacity. There are two methods to predict bearing capacity, that is, as piers(showllow failuer mechanism) or as piles(deep failure mechanism).

I am going to do some research work on piles' stiffness. would you tell me ,in th engineering,which stiffness, initial stiffness or the secant siffness under design load, is used more frequently? and in what situations are they used,respectively?
I have a 8-story steel frame and I am going to use supple braces, say, steel bars, as the brace system. Does the brace system used in steel frames have to be rigid ones, such as tube or angle iron?
thanks!
