Three-dimensional finite element dynamic analyses were conducted to evaluate the effect of barge impact of different speeds on the lateral performance of three pile group (PG) configurations (vertical, battered, mixed) in terms of peak lateral displacement, peak shear force, lateral stiffness of PGs, and contribution of piles and pier columns to the total resisting force. The concrete material was modeled using the Concrete Damaged Plasticity model. The clay behavior was described using the Modified Cam Clay model; while the sand was modeled using the Drucker Prager model. The results showed that the vertical PG had the lowest lateral stiffness; while the battered and mixed PGs had closely larger stiffness, which allowed the development of larger impact force and pile cap displacement in vertical PG as compared to other PGs. The results of shear force showed that the foundation contributed up to 82% of the total lateral force in battered and mixed PGs. The results also showed that in vertical PG, the first row had slightly higher percentage of lateral force compared to other rows; while in battered PG, the load percentage was evenly distributed between rows. A contrast performance was observed for mixed PG. The results of bending moment (BM) showed that the piles in vertical PG had notably higher BM than the piles in other PGs due to larger pile cap displacement. In all PGs, the piles in the edge column had higher BM ratio, with the leading row (L) had the highest BM ratio (69–72%) in all PGs.
