This article aims to introduce spatial variability effect on the behavior of extended structures as the sheet piles. The importance of these aspects can provide elements of response to experts in charge of the standards of design for these structures. Two main problems are identified, the first one is about the most appropriate way to model the variability of soil and its interaction with the sheet pile. The second one is to take into account the uncertainties and their propagation through a model. A 2-D mechanical model of the sheet pile has served to propagate the soil variability and the system-parameter uncertainties and allowed to study the response of the different structural elements of the structure. The spatial soil heterogeneities show clearly its effect on the behavior of the structure. This analysis has opened up new possibilities to advance in researches on longitudinal aspects for these structures.< Leer menos
