波浪作用下海底粉土孔隙水压力响应过程监测研究

波浪引起的海底土体内部孔压累积是导致液化发生的主要原因,研究波浪作用下土体内部孔压响应过程对于明确液化机理、预测液化发生具有重要作用。在黄河口使用自行研发的孔压监测设备对海底粉土孔隙水压力进行了有效监测。监测结果显示,海底粉土的孔压变化主要受波浪影响且存在一定的影响范围,超出该范围则波浪对海底粉土的孔压无影响。同时,基于监测过程内的孔压变化对海底粉土进行了液化评判,并对波浪作用效果和液化影响因素进行了探讨。波浪对海底粉土内部孔压影响效果主要有3种:(1)有孔压振荡但不发生累积;(2)有孔压振荡且发生累积;(3)无孔压振荡且不发生累积。

波流作用下黄河三角洲多层粉质土孔压累积及液化分析

在波浪和海流作用下,多层粉质土海床可能会发生液化破坏,进而影响工程构筑物的安全。以黄河三角洲为背景,选取垦东地区三种典型粉质土海床,基于Terzaghi固结方程和Biot渗流理论,验证了波流作用下多层土海床累积孔压响应模型,探讨了三种不同典型海床累积孔压与液化特征的差异,以及波流参数对海床动力响应的影响。结果表明,上覆硬壳层的海床累积孔压竖向分布出现了两个峰值,并且液化深度可达7.8 m,流速、波高和水深对累积孔压影响显著,而周期影响相对较小。此外,当波浪传播方向顺流时,随着流速的增大,上层土体累积孔压逐渐增大,降低了海床的稳定性。     

波浪作用下液化粉土流动特性拖球试验研究

粉质土大量存在于黄河水下三角洲地区,粉土液化过程中具有类似流体的性质,可以把液化过程中的粉土视为黏性流体进行研究。基于流体力学中Stokes黏滞阻力原理,在波浪水槽试验基础上,设计了一套测量液化过程中粉土流变特性的拖球装置,并对其实用性进行验证。在铺设有粉土底床的波浪水槽中埋入可以水平滑动的小球,通过拖动小球在粉土中水平运动,测量小球所受阻力值的大小,用以计算液化粉土表观动力黏度。充分考虑试验中波浪要素、超孔压比等因素的影响。结果表明,该装置能够满足试验要求;波浪循环荷载作用下,观察到了孔压的累积至液化的过程;波浪参数对结果有较大影响,其中波高越大,表观黏度值越小;同一波高情况下,表观黏度随时间缓慢增加;随着超孔压比的升高,波浪作用下粉土表观黏度值逐渐减小。

通过室内水槽试验,观察波浪作用下土体产生的现象,分析了土体内孔隙水压力的变化及波浪作用后土体粒度组成变化特征,研究了波浪荷载作用下黄河口粉土液化和"振荡层"的形成过程。试验及讨论结果表明:在波浪作用下,上层粉土体大部分时间处于液化状态;由液化土形成的振荡土层与下部土层之间形成"W"形的滑动面,振荡土层的厚度随着波浪作用时间的增加而变小;在波浪的振动和孔隙流体的共同作用下,土颗粒重新排列,细粒物质向上迁移,土体底部土颗粒粒径较为粗大,振荡层范围内土颗粒粒径组成相似,粒径分布范围较小;其内部孔压比随深度和波浪作用次数的增加而较少,土体内部积累的超孔压逐渐消散,海床土体逐渐趋于稳定。     

波浪作用下海底粉质土液化过程的速率特征

海底的粉质土在强烈波浪作用下会发生液化现象。粉质土从液化发生到最后形成流体有其变化的过程。本文针对黄河三角洲的粉质土,进行了波浪水槽试验和现场监测试验,记录了孔压在粉质土液化过程中的变化,给出了波浪作用下粉质土液化过程的速率特征。试验结果给出:海底粉质土在波浪作用下某一深度层的液化发展迅速,水槽试验重塑土用孔压增长速率反映的液化发展速率平均为0.15kPa/min,现场监测原状土液化发展速率平均为0.29kPa/min;水槽试验重塑土和现场监测原状土均出现液化深度自上而下的发展过程,本文水槽试验条件和现场条件给出的液化深度发展平均速率分别为0.01和0.10m/min。     

波浪作用下粉土海床中的孔压响应试验研究

海床在波浪作用下是否稳定对海底工程的安全至关重要,海床的稳定性与土体中的孔压响应密切相关。水槽模拟试验表明:在波浪的作用下,黄河三角洲粉土海床中将产生振荡孔隙水压力和累积孔隙水压力。振荡孔隙水压力大小与土层深度、波高和粘粒含量有关,其振幅(能量)在土层中随深度的增加呈指数衰减,且粘粒含量越高衰减越快;加载波高越大,能量衰减越快。而累积孔压响应模式表现为在波浪作用最初的一段时间内,孔隙水压力快速上升,然后逐渐减小而趋于稳定,其大小和速率也与波高、粘粒含量、土层埋深有关,粘粒含量越高,孔压累积速度越低。     

黏粒含量对粉质土液化发生的作用机制

近年来,海岸沉积的粉质土在波浪作用下发生液化的问题开始被关注和研究。由于粉质土中含有黏粒成分,其液化机制可能与砂性土不同。通过对不同黏粒含量的粉质土进行循环荷载三轴试验,获得孔压、应变的变化曲线。以应变5%为土体破坏标准,结合土体的微结构特征,分析认为粉质土由于黏粒含量不同,存在液化破坏和触变破坏两种导致液化发生的机制。     

海底孔压对波浪响应试验研究及数值模拟

孔隙水压力在海底土尤其在砂性海床中扮演着一个非常重要的角色.波浪的周期性加载作用,在砂土及粉土中产生超静孔隙水压力,其幅值大小是海床发生液化破坏的控制因素.在海上工程的历次调查中发现孔压引起许多液化破坏现象,如粉土海床的塌陷、凹坑、坡度较大处的粉砂流及构筑物基础周围的过量冲刷造成石油管架下沉等等,因此研究海床中孔压对波浪的响应具有重要的理论意义和实践意义.     

波浪作用下黄河三角洲海底粉土液化特征对比研究

作为一种常见的近海海底灾害地质现象,波致海床液化严重威胁着黄河三角洲地区海底工程设施的安全。粉质海床液化后,海底粉土的结构、物理和力学性质均发生了改变,研究该变化规律尤其是评估液化后海底粉土再次发生液化的可能性具有重要的理论意义和应用价值。本文利用室内动三轴仪对取自黄河三角洲已液化和未液化海底粉土开展了液化试验对比研究,讨论了已液化和未液化海底粉土在孔压增长模式和轴向动应变发展趋势方面的异同,对比分析了二者的液化势。研究结果表明:应变标准比孔压标准更适用于评估黄河三角洲地区海底粉土的液化势;孔压和动应变发展模式均表明与未液化粉土相比,已液化海底粉土再次发生液化的抗力有所提高;已液化和未液化海底粉土归一化孔压比u_d/σ₃与循环加载次数比N/N_f间相关关系可采用双曲线或指数函数模型进行定量化描述;未液化海底粉土的波致液化临界循环应力比约为0.20,已液化海底粉土的临界循环应力比约为0.35。研究成果有助于加深对海底粉土波致液化特性的认识,亦可为循环应力历史影响下的土体力学性质研究提供参考。     

Evaluation of storm wave-induced silty seabed instability and geo-hazards: A case study in the Yellow River delta

Models based on the theoretical framework of soil mechanics are presented to evaluate storm wave-induced silty seabed instability and geo-hazards through a case study in the Yellow River delta. First, the transient and residual mechanisms of wave-induced pore pressure are analyzed. Three typical models (i.e., elastic model, pore pressure development mode and elasto-plastic model) are proposed to calculate wave-induced stresses in the seabed. Next, mechanisms and calculation methods of wave-induced seabed instability modes such as scour, liquefaction, seepage instability and shear slide are proposed. Typical results of storm wave-induced excess pore pressure and seabed instability are given and relevant discussions are made. At last, the formation mechanism of geo-hazards in the Yellow River delta is analyzed based on the proposed mechanism and calculated results. Results and analysis indicate that both transient and residual mechanisms are important to storm wave-induced response of silty seabed and hence the elasto-plastic model is more appropriate. Complete liquefaction does not happen, while other types of instability occur mostly within 2–6 m under the seabed surface. Wave-induced scour, seepage instability and shear slide are all possible instability modes under the 1-year storm waves, and scour is predominant for the 50-year storm waves. The formation mechanism of geo-hazards such as shallow slide and storm wave reactivation, pockmarks, silt flow and gully, disturbed stratum and hard crust in the Yellow River are well explained based on the proposed mechanisms and calculated results of storm wave-induced silty seabed instability.

波浪作用下粉质土海床液化界面波压力的研究

波浪作用下粉质土海床的液化是影响海上平台、海底管线等海洋构筑物安全的灾害之一。在进行构筑物设计中应考虑海床液化的深度问题,而液化土体对下部海床的界面波压力是计算海床孔隙水压力增长以及液化深度的重要参量。本文基于波致粉土海床自上而下的渐进液化模式,利用双层流体波动理论,推导了考虑海床土体黏性的海床界面波压力表达式,并与不考虑黏性时的界面波压力进行了比较分析。结果表明,计算液化后土体界面波压力时,是否考虑液化土体的黏性对结果影响较大,进而可能影响粉质土海床液化深度的确定。     

Spatial and temporal variation process of seabed dynamic response induced by the internal solitary wave

Internal solitary wave(ISW) is often accompanied by huge energy transport, which will change the pore water pressure in the seabed. Based on the two-dimensional Biot consolidation theory, the excess pore water pressure in seabed was simulated, and the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of excess pore water pressure was studied. As the parameters of both ISW and seabed can affect the excess pore water pressure, the distribution of pore water pressure showed both dissipation and phase lag...

The numerical study of wave-induced pore water pressure response in highly permeable seabed

The coupling numerical model of wave interaction with porous medium is used to study waveinduced pore water pressure in high permeability seabed.In the model,the wave field solver is based on the two dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) equations with a k-ε closure,and Forchheimer equations are adopted for flow within the porous media.By introducing a Velocity-Pressure Correction equation for the wave flow and porous flow,a highly efficient coupling between the two flows is implemented.The numerical tests are conducted to study the effects of seabed thickness,porosity,particle size and intrinsic permeability coefficient on regular wave and solitary wave-induced pore water pressure response.The results indicate that,as compared with regular wave-induced,solitary wave-induced pore water pressure has larger values and stronger action on seabed with different parameters.The results also clearly show the flow characteristics of pore water flow within seabed and water wave flow on seabed.The maximum pore water flow velocities within seabed under solitary wave action are higher than those under regular wave action.     

Pore pressure response of seabed in standing waves and its mechanism

Experiments were carried out in a newly-developed rectangular flume to investigate the pore pressure response of silty seabed in standing waves, and to emphatically discuss the physical mechanism of wave-induced pore pressure. We first analyzed the features of wave-induced stress, laid out the experimental setup, and particularly monitored the temporal and spatial variation of pore pressure. Then, we summarized the physical essence of wave-induced pore pressure, discussed the applicability of the existing models, and proposed several key points about developing new models. Results indicate that regular standing waves were obtained in the rectangular flume. The oscillating pore pressure (OPP) and the residual pore pressure (RPP) were observed simultaneously in the seabed under wave nodes or antinodes, and were found with coupling effect. The OPP and RPP were related to the elastic and plastic volumetric strains, respectively. Both elastic and plastic volumetric strains may be caused by the wave-induced cyclic spherical stress or deviatoric stress. The elastic model could only simulate the OPP and the pore pressure development mode could only simulate the RPP. The yielding under isotropic compression and the shear expansion of geotechnical materials, as well as the wave-induced stress paths, should be considered in the elastoplastic model to simulate the wave-induced pore pressure accurately.     

内孤立波浅化破碎过程斜坡沉积物孔压响应特征实验分析

观测资料显示内孤立波沿斜坡浅化过程对海底沉积物的作用犹如一台水中吸尘器，在破碎转换阶段达到最强，甚至会触发一系列地质活动，引发地质灾害。为界定此过程中沉积物的动力响应特征和影响因素，在大型重力式分层流水槽中模拟不同振幅内孤立波和不同类型沉积物斜坡连续作用过程，利用孔隙水压力采集系统实时记录孔隙水压力变化，对比分析不同水动力、坡度、沉积物类型情况下沉积物中超孔压变化特征。分析结果表明，内孤立波破碎过程，破波位置海床表层波压力和不同深度超孔隙水压力都存在相似的"U"型负压力变化过程；破碎波经过位置沉积物表现为和表面波压力正相关的孔压响应特征。破碎点沉积物中超孔压幅值随深度减小，约在6%波长深度位置减少到坡面压力的50%。超孔压幅值和内孤立波振幅、沉积物类型和斜坡度密切相关，坡度由0.071变化到0.160时，波压力幅值可增大至1.6倍。内孤立波振幅变化不影响不同类型海床土动力响应规律，只与超孔隙水压力值大小有关，内孤立波对海床的动力作用可认为弹性作用。     

Numerical study on the interaction among a nonlinear wave,composite breakwater and sandy seabed

Most previous investigations related to composite breakwaters have focused on the wave forces acting on the structure itself from a hydrodynamic aspect. The foundational aspects of a composite breakwater under wave-induced cyclic loading are also important in studying the stability of a composite breakwater. In this study, numerical simulations were performed to investigate the wave-induced pore water pressure and flow changes inside the rubble mound of the composite breakwater and seabed foundation. The validity and applicability of the numerical model were demonstrated by comparing numerical results with existing experimental data. Moreover, the present model clearly has shown that the instantaneous directions of pore water flow motion inside the seabed induced by surface waves are in good agreement with the general wave-induced pore water flow inside the seabed. The model is further used to discuss the stability of a composite breakwater, i.e., the interaction among nonlinear waves, composite breakwater and seabed. Numerical results suggest that the stability of a composite breakwater is affected by not only downward shear flow generating on the seaward slope face of the rubble mound but, also, a high and dense pore water pressure gradient inside the rubble mound and seabed foundation.
