Oscillatory soil response and liquefaction in an unsaturated layered seabed

The subject of wave-induced soil response in a real seabed has attracted the attention of geotechnical and coastal engineers over the last three decades, for which several basic theories have been developed. However, the evaluation of soil liquefaction has not been attempted theoretically in a seabed with multiple sub-layers, in which homogeneity in soil properties can be assumed within each layer. In this study, a semi-analytical approach is presented for obtaining solutions for the pore pressure and effective stresses in a non-cohesive layered seabed of finite thickness subject to a system of three-dimensional waves. Based on the numerical results for a layered seabed, influences of soil characteristics (relative layer thickness, permeability ratio and shear modulus) on seabed responses are described. Special attention is given to the effect of placing a coarser material as a top layer for protecting an underlayer of finer sediment. Although only a three-layered seabed is explicitly solved in this study, the procedure outlined can readily be extended to a multi-layered soil system. The three-dimensional solutions can also be applied to the two-dimensional progressive or standing wave systems.     

考虑波致孔压累积与应力耦合效应的埋置管线周围海床响应特征与机制分析

波浪导致的海床液化是埋置管线失稳的一个重要因素。超静孔隙水压力累积引起的液化深度较深,对海底管线稳定性的影响较大,因此波浪作用下管线-海床系统的累积响应特征一直受到研究者的重点关注。本文基于考虑孔压累积与海床应力耦合发展的数值计算模型,对非线性行进波作用下含埋置管线的海床累积响应特征进行了模拟计算,并与非耦合模型的计算结果进行了对比分析,结果表明,当考虑孔压累积与海床应力的耦合效应时,管线附近累积孔压在水平方向上的不均匀分布会导致海床循环剪应力的增大,从而会极大地促进管线周围海床累积孔压的发展,增大管线的影响范围; 忽略孔压累积与海床应力的耦合效应,会在一定程度上低估管线周围海床的液化深度,不利于管线的安全。     

Short-crested wave-induced soil response in a porous seabed of infinite thickness

Waves reflecting obliquely from structures establish short-crested waves which are conducive to scour of the bed adjacent to them. The pore pressures and effective stresses induced by this wave system are derived analytically for an unsaturated, anisotropic soil matrix of infinite depth in a three-dimensional domain. Verification is available by the solutions being readily reduced to the two-dimensional cases of the progressive and standing wave, for which some closed-form solutions are available. It is shown that wave obliquity is coupled with soil permeability. The effects of wave obliquity, relative water depth, soil stiffness and soil permeability on wave-induced pore pressure are discussed in detail.     

波浪作用下黄河三角洲粉质土海床动力响应分析

应用饱和土动力固结理论和Pastor-Zienkiewicz III动力本构关系,对波浪作用下黄河三角洲粉质土海床的动力响应特征进行了有限元分析,应用总超孔压准则对海床进行了液化判别,并将计算结果与现场观测资料进行对比。结果表明：波浪导致的海床超孔压由瞬态孔压和累积孔压两部分组成;相比均质海床,拥有表面硬层的海床瞬态孔压沿深度衰减更快,累积孔压在表层增长速度更大;不同波浪条件下,瞬态孔压值及其变化趋势较为一致,累积孔压则具有较大的不同。年平均波浪条件下海床不会发生液化;5 a和50 a一遇极端波浪条件下,考虑三维效应和具有表面硬层的海床更容易液化,最大液化深度在海床表面以下2～3 m范围内。计算所得的海床最大液化深度与实测的黄河三角洲海底灾害地貌深度有较好的一致性,表明了文中方法的有效性和合理性。     

波浪作用下饱和砂质海床土体与管线相互作用规律研究

针对波浪引起的饱和砂质海床土体和管线相互作用问题,将Biot动力固结理论与笔者课题组提出的砂土液化变形弹塑性本构模型相耦合,较为合理地再现了简谐波浪作用下较浅饱和砂质海床中管线周围可液化海床土体的超静孔隙水压力瞬态累积变化规律与液化过程。数值计算结果与Sumer等的试验规律一致。结果表明：由于管线的存在,改变了饱和砂质海床液化区域的空间分布。液化首先由管线下部土体开始产生,随着波浪荷载的持续作用,液化区域沿着管线外壁向上演化;同时海床表层土体产生液化并向深层发展,最终管线周围土体都发生液化,这是导致空管上浮的主要原因。当饱和砂质海床中存在管线时,管线附近海床土体液化深度明显变深。超静孔压累积和渗透力变化的耦合作用是导致饱和砂质海床土体产生液化的原因。与将海床土体视为饱和弹性多孔介质相比,可考虑液化全过程的弹塑性动力分析能更为合理地揭示实际波浪作用下饱和砂质海床土体的渗流场和应力场的瞬态时空演变规律。     

非线性波浪荷载作用下海上风机管桩基础周围海床液化研究

为研究近浅海领域内海上风机大直径单桩基础周围的砂质海床在非线性荷载作用下的瞬时液化的稳定性,在OpenFOAM平台上建立波浪-单桩-海床三维数值模型(WSSI模型),采用olaFoam求解器求解RANS方程模拟波浪的非线性运动,将Biot方程作为海床模型的控制方程研究单桩周围海床的液化规律。对以往的数值解析结果和实验结果进行对比分析,验证本文建立三维波浪模型和海床模型的准确性和有效性。将建立的波浪-管桩-海床相互作用三维数值模型应用到实际工况中,对数值模型在实际工程中的海床响应进行分析评估。研究结果表明,单桩周围海床的孔隙水压力场和有效应力场在水深方向发生较大变化,在水平方向变化较小。在该工况下海床的最大液化深度可达到10 m,且在垂直于波浪运动方向的海床更容易发生液化,为实际工程预测海床液化提供一定的技术支持。     

随机波浪作用下海床动力响应及液化的理论分析

运用随机波浪理论,基于广义Biot动力固结理论,建立了能够考虑波浪荷载随机特性影响的计算海床动力响应及液化深度的解析数值模型,并从时域上进行求解分析.通过与传统线性规则波浪荷载作用下海床动力响应及液化深度的数值结果的对比分析,详细讨论了考虑波浪荷载的随机特性对于求解海床动力响应及液化深度的影响程度.结果表明,根据随机波浪理论计算得到的海床中的超孔隙水压力、水平有效应力、竖向有效应力、剪应力表现出较强的不规则性,其幅值沿着海床深度方向的变化趋势与根据线性规则波浪理论计算得到结果的变化趋势基本相同,但在同数量级上更大,同时计算得到的海床最大液化深度明显大于根据线性规则波浪理论计算得到的结果.因此,在海洋地基设计和自由场地安全评估时应该合理地考虑波浪荷载的随机特性.

NON-LINEAR WAVE-INDUCED RESPONSE OF POROUS SEABED: A FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

Conventional investigations of waves–seabed interaction problems have been only concerned with the soil response due to two-dimensional linear progressive waves over a uniform seabed. However, the effects of non-linear waves which have been reported in the literature may be significantly different. In this paper, a finite element model is developed to investigate the non-linear wave-induced seabed response with variable permeability and shear modulus in a three-dimensional domain. The finite element formulations are fully presented in this paper. The numerical model is verified with the previous investigations through the reduced form of the present solution. The numerical results indicate that the influence of non-linear wave components cannot always be ignored without substantial error. Furthermore, the wave-induced seabed response is affected significantly by variable permeability in coarser seabeds and variable shear modulus in finer seabeds. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

非线性波浪作用下海底管线-海床动力响应分析

确定波浪荷载作用下海底埋置管线和海床的响应是海底管线设计中的关键问题。目前大多数研究只是考虑了管线、海床在线性推进波作用下的响应,并没有考虑管线与海床之间的相互作用效应。采用接触摩擦理论,考虑管线与海床之间的相互作用效应,基于有限元方法研究了非线性波浪作用下海底埋置管线和多孔海床相互作用问题。数值计算结果表明,在计算中如果忽略波浪非线性项,既有可能低估海底管线内应力及管线周围海床中孔隙水压力,也有可能高估海底管线内应力及管线周围海床中孔隙水压力。

Wave‐induced seepage flux into anisotropic seabeds

Considerable effort has been devoted to quantifying the wave‐induced soil response in a porous seabed in the last few decades. Most previous investigations have focused on the analysis of pore pressure and effective stresses within isotropic sediments, despite strong evidence of anisotropic soil behaviour reported in the literature. Furthermore, the seepage flux, which is important in the context of contaminant transport, has not been examined. In this paper, we focus on water wave‐driven seepage in anisotropic marine sediments of finite thickness. The numerical results predict that the effects of hydraulic anisotropy and anisotropic soil behaviour on the wave‐driven seepage in marine sediment are significant.

波浪导致黄河口海床沉积物超孔压响应现场试验研究

黄河口海床特殊的工程地质性质与复杂的工程动力稳定性问题,均与海床沉积物在波浪荷载作用下的孔压动力响应密切相关。在现代黄河水下三角洲潮间带岸滩选择4个典型研究点,现场模拟波浪作用对原状海床沉积物实施循环加载,利用孔隙水压力观测、沉积物强度测试、样品采集与实验室土工测试等方法手段,测定黄河口原状海床沉积物在循环荷载作用不同阶段的孔压响应与强度变化。研究发现,黄河口原状海床沉积物在经历循环加载过程中,典型的超孔压响应可分为逐渐累积、部分消散、快速累积、累积液化和完全消散5个阶段,分别对应沉积物强度的衰减、增大、衰减、丧失和恢复过程,沉积物的粒度组成与结构性强弱决定了超孔压的具体响应模式。波浪导致原状海床液化深度受沉积物的干密度、孔隙比、饱和度等初始物理性质影响显著,细颗粒组分的相对含量高低也在很大程度上控制着沉积物的液化特性。     

波浪作用下考虑海床变形影响的溶质运移数值模拟

波浪会促进海水中溶质向海底沉积物运移,但已有研究大多未考虑海床（海底沉积物）变形效应的影响。为揭示波浪作用下海床土变形对溶质运移过程的影响机制,构建了考虑海床土变形影响的溶质运移计算模型,对波浪作用下溶质向砂质海底沉积物中的运移过程进行模拟。结果表明:海床土变形会增大孔隙水流速,进而增大溶质纵向水动力弥散系数,增强溶质运移的机械弥散作用,促进溶质向沉积物中运移;考虑海床变形时的溶质最大纵向水动力弥散系数可达不考虑海床变形时的8.5倍,约为分子扩散系数的545倍;海床土剪切模量越小,土体变形效应越明显,对溶质运移过程的影响越大;海床土饱和度的降低,会进一步加速波浪作用下溶质向海底沉积物的运移过程。     

Tide-induced hydraulic response in a semi-infinite seabed with a subaqueous drained tunnel

In this study, analytical solutions for tide-induced pore pressure, seepage force and water inflow into a subaqueous drained tunnel are developed. The results are compared with numerical solutions from a commercial software. The effects of the soil permeability, shear modulus, lining thickness and buried depth of the tunnel on tide-induced pore pressure, seepage force and water inflow are discussed. Larger tide-induced pore pressure and seepage force are obtained for smaller tunnel depth and higher soil permeability. The phase lags of the maximal tide-induced pore pressure at different depths are determined and investigated.     

波流作用下黄河三角洲硬壳层液化渗流形成机制研究

波流作用于海床产生动态孔隙水压力,如不能及时消除会在其内部产生累积孔隙水压力,相邻两点间的孔隙水压力差值造成的水力梯度产生渗流力,渗流力引起水流动,海床表面为排水界面,从而会在海床内部形成向上的渗流力作用于泥沙颗粒上,使泥沙发生启动向海床表层运移,从而形成一定范围的粗颗粒层。本文采用数值模拟对不同流速下的海床累积孔隙水压力进行了研究,同时分析了硬壳层的存在对海床累积孔隙水压力的影响规律,根据取得的不同流速下海床内部的累积孔隙水压力值,计算海床任意位置处的渗流压力梯度,采用王虎等(2014)推导建立的海床临界冲刷深度的计算方法,分析不同流速下的硬壳层形成深度。结果表明: 海流流向与波浪行进方向一致时,对累积孔隙水压力起促进作用,流速越大累积孔隙水压力越大,反之对累积孔隙水压力有抑制作用。表面硬壳层的存在会显著促进累积孔压的消散,累积孔隙水压力沿深度分布的极值均出现在下层原始海床中,流速U₀=0m ·s-1时硬壳层厚度由1m增加到3m,极值点深度下降了1.38m。累积孔隙水压力引起的渗流力对于海床泥沙启动影响显著,在流速U₀=0m ·s-1,U₀=1m ·s-1时泥沙启动深度均为海床1.5m深度处,并且海流流向与波浪行进方向一致时,会产生较大ΔP/ΔL值带动较粗的泥沙颗粒至海床表层,但对泥沙启动的最大深度影响不大。

Effect of wave non‐linearity on the standing‐wave‐induced seabed response

A standing wave in front of a seawall may reach a height more than twice of its incident component. When excess pore pressure occurs, it may even induce seabed instability, hence endangering the structure. This issue was studied previously using only linear wave theory. In this paper, standing‐wave theory to a second‐order approximation is applied, in order to demonstrate the differences between these two solutions. The spatial and temporal variations in the instantaneous pore pressure are first calculated, in addition to their vertical distributions. The effects of wave height, water depth and the degree of soil saturation on pore pressure distributions are then discussed, followed by the net pore pressure averaged over one wave cycle. The results suggest the existence of a residual pore pressure in the seabed and its net pore pressure can be used to estimate the wave‐induced liquefaction potential in a soil column. It also indicates that, in deep water, the second‐order solution predicts that a negative pore pressure at an antinode which may be greater than a positive pressure. Overall, the second‐order solution is found to agree better with the experimental results of the pore pressures available, compared to the linear solution.
