In this study, the effect of near-field and far-field ground motions on the seismic response of the soil pile system is investigated. The forward directivity effect, which includes a large velocity pulse at the beginning of the velocity time history of the ground motion is the most damaging phenomenon observed in near-field ground motions. To investigate the effect of near-field and far-field ground motions on the seismic response of a soil-pile system, a three-dimensional model consisting of the two-layer soil, liquefiable sand layer over dense sand, and the pile is utilized. Modeling is conducted in FLAC 3D software. The P2P Sand constitutive model is selected for sandy soil. Three fault-normal near-field and three far-field ground motion records were applied to the model. The numerical results show that near field velocity pulses have a considerable effect on the system behavior and sudden huge displacement demands were observed. Also, during the near-field ground motions, the exceeded pore water pressure coefficient (Ru) increases so that liquefaction occurs in the upper loose sand layer. Due to the pulse-like ground motions, a pulse-like relative displacement is created in response to the pile. Meanwhile the relative displacement response of the pile is entirely different due to the energy distribution during the far-field ground motions.
