Time‐Dependent Settlement Model for Driven Piles Using Hybrid Finite Element‐Artificial Neural Network and Regression Approaches

The prediction of time‐dependent pile settlement remains challenging due to the nonlinear behavior of saturated clay soils, consolidation, and pile setup effects. The complexity of this phenomenon is not fully captured by classical elasticity theories. This study develops a hybrid model for time‐dependent pile settleme...
