Summary:This paper considers the longitudinal coupled vibration of an elastic bearing concrete pipe pile with the saturated soil. The outer and inner saturated soil are governed by the dynamic consolidation theory originally presented by Biot. The governing equations of soil are transferred to ordinary differential equations by Laplace transform. The volumetric strain and pore pressure of soil are obtained by directly solving the coupling equations of soil without introducing potential functions. The analytical expressions of the displacements and shear stresses of the soil are then obtained. The pile response is derived on the basis of 1D elastic theory and the perfect contacts between the pile and soils. The displacement and velocity of the pile in time domain are obtained by using numerical inverse transformation. Selected numerical results are presented to portray the influence of the existences of soils, pile geometry and dynamic permeability coefficients of soils on the vibration characteristics of the pipe pile. At last, the displacement response between a pipe pile and solid pile are compared.
