地震作用下返包式加筋土挡墙数值模拟

返包式加筋土挡墙是一种柔性面板挡墙,因其良好的地基适应性及地震安全性广泛应用于交通、市政和水利等诸多领域中。本文使用FLAC^3D数值模拟程序对返包式加筋土挡墙墙面坡度、土工袋填料及筋材强度进行了抗震性能研究。研究结果表明：当墙面坡度<1∶0.30时,墙后侧向土压力分布均匀且数值较小,近似于一条竖向直线;当墙面坡度≥1∶0.30时,墙后侧向土压力分布规律一致且符合朗肯土压力理论。因此,当墙面坡度<1∶0.30时,加筋土结构应按加筋土边坡进行设计;当墙面坡度≥1∶0.30时,加筋土结构应按加筋土挡墙进行设计。土工袋填料种类对返包式加筋土挡墙地震动力响应几乎没有影响,在抗震设计时可不考虑其对挡墙的影响。筋材强度越高,返包式加筋土挡墙抗震性能越好,但筋材强度与挡墙的抗震性能不成正比例,由于加筋土结构的"加筋作用饱和"现象,大幅度提升筋材强度并不会使挡墙的抗震性能得到大幅度提升;因此,工程中在保证筋材强度达标的前提下需注意经济性。     

均布荷载下台阶式加筋土挡墙性能的试验分析

台阶式加筋土挡墙变形与力学特性尚待进一步深入研究。利用模型试验综合分析台阶宽度、上墙筋材长度和筋材层间距对两级台阶式加筋土挡墙性能的影响,试验结果表明:当台阶宽度由1.3H₁(H₁为下墙高度)减至0.4H₁、筋材层间距减小或上墙筋材长度增加时,挡墙顶部沉降明显减少,且墙顶极限承载力显著增加;台阶式加筋土挡墙水平变形受台阶宽度和上墙筋材长度的影响显著,顶部加载时以上墙中部“鼓肚”和下墙沿墙高逐渐增大为主;增加台阶宽度使上墙底部垂直土压力增加,而下墙靠近墙面侧垂直土压力显著减小,增加上墙筋材长度和减少层间距使垂直土压力向远离墙面一侧发展;顶部加载时台阶式加筋土挡墙滑动面始于加载板后缘,绕过上墙墙底承台并贯通于下墙顶部土体,其破坏模式以上墙深层滑动破坏为主。     

填土相对密实度对加筋土挡墙的影响研究

自加筋土出现以来,由面板、筋材、填土组成的加筋土挡墙被广泛研究并应于道路、铁路等土建工程中。填土的压实对加筋土挡墙的变形、土压力及筋材拉力等影响显著。为研究填土相对密实度对加筋土挡墙的影响,进行了3组不同相对密实度的离心模型试验,通过试验数据分析得到以下结论：相对密实度越大,墙体变形越小,特别是加载期变形量;压实可增大面板附近土体约束,使水平土压力大于设计值;试验挡墙设计较保守,筋材填土界面摩擦系数小于设计值;筋材面板之间连接拉力分析表明,连接拉力实测值小于测试土压力。     

有限填土加筋土挡墙的稳定性及破坏模式分析

有限填土加筋土挡墙是短加筋土挡墙的一种特殊情况,其工作性状还没有被清晰地认识。文章在离心模型试验成果的基础上,采用FLAC软件建立有限填土加筋土挡墙的二维数值模型,讨论了加筋间距、加筋长度以及墙面与竖直平面的夹角对挡墙稳定性和破坏模式的影响。结果表明:（1）墙后有限填土情况下主动土压力约为库伦主动土压力的1/2~1/3;（2）在稳定地基工况下,挡墙均为复合破坏模式,滑动面呈折线型,在挡墙中下部,滑动面同时穿过了加筋区和填土区,从墙趾处滑出;在挡墙上部,滑动面基本沿着填土与稳定墙面的接触面向上发展;（3）潜在滑动面是自下向上逐渐形成的,体现为下部剪切、上部拉张的特征;（4）在墙后有限填土情况下,加筋长度减小到0.4H时,挡墙仍能保持稳定,加筋间距在控制挡墙稳定性方面具有重要作用。     

加筋土挡墙静载模型试验及其力学性能研究

为研究加筋土挡墙在墙顶荷载作用下土体受力和变形形态,通过改变筋材层数、筋材长度和替换加筋材料等方式对加筋土挡墙进行了4种工况的模型试验。对4种工况下的加筋土墙体内竖向土压力、墙面水平位移、墙顶竖向位移和筋材应变等进行对比研究。研究表明,挡墙上部竖向土压力增长较快且各层竖向土压力最大值由加载点下部向墙面处移动;墙顶荷载超过130 kPa时,由于不均匀沉降,第5层筋材对应墙面处有向内收缩趋势,墙面水平位移最大值大约在上三分点位置;整个加载阶段,筋材总体应变值增幅不大且远小于筋材设计应变峰值;增加挡墙内筋材层数和增加筋材长度均可提升挡墙各方面性能,但增加筋材层数提高效果要优于增加筋材长度;使用废旧轮胎代替单向格栅进行加筋可有效提高挡墙整体性能,分散超载引起的附加应力,有效减小墙面水平位移和墙顶竖向位移。     

青岛某高低组合墙面加筋土挡墙工程应用实例

介绍了青岛某高低组合墙面加筋土挡墙项目的工程概况、设计思路、施工方案和监测成果。该组合加筋土挡墙下部采用了混凝土劈裂面模块墙面,上部采用了现浇混凝土面板+筋材返包土工袋墙面。监测数据表明,下部劈裂模块向墙外侧变形越大,土工格栅张拉越紧;上部墙后荷载和土压力越大,加筋土越密实,返包土工格栅和钢筋锚杆承受的拉力越大;墙后土体位移及挡墙变形较荷载施加具有一定的滞后,上部土工袋与挡墙之间的空隙充分挤密后,变形趋于稳定;与常规挡土墙位移方向不同,该组合墙面的挡土墙位移方向表现为向填土一侧移动。实践证明,该组合墙面加筋土挡墙具有结构合理、施工方便且安全可靠的特点,可为类似工程的设计提供参考。     

整体刚性面板加筋土挡墙基频影响因素计算分析

作为一种柔性支挡结构,加筋土挡墙相较于传统重力式挡墙具有优越的抗震性能。由于结构在地震等动荷载作用下的动力响应大小与其自身的固有频率大小有关,因此,固有频率的研究显得尤为重要,特别是其最小值基频。以整体刚性面板加筋土挡墙为研究对象,分别用弹性地基梁模型、线性弹簧模型表示面板、填土及筋材,提出了一种加筋土挡墙固有频率计算方法。计算求得的基频值与既有瑞利能量法计算值具有较好的一致性。参数分析表明：填土中铺设筋材可以增大墙体的基频;对于加筋土挡墙,筋材长度以及筋材-填土界面摩擦系数对墙体基频影响较小;随着筋材竖向间距的增大,加筋密度对加筋土挡墙基频的影响逐渐减小;墙体基频随着面板宽度的增大先减小后增大;随着面板模量的减小,墙体基频趋于恒值。     

间接加筋作用及加筋土挡墙离心模型试验验证

土工合成材料加筋土挡墙在工程实践中得到了广泛应用,但现行加筋土挡墙的设计方法很有争议,以及对加筋土挡墙的工作机理上的认识存在误区。基于已有间接加筋作用的研究成果,提出了"临界层间距"的概念,并以此区分加筋土挡墙的密筋状态和疏筋状态。认为在不同的加筋状态下,加筋土挡墙工作机理是不同的。而且临界层间距与填土和筋材性质有关,并不是一个固定值。在密筋状态下的加筋土挡墙自身表现为一个柔性筋土复合整体。为了验证这些认识,进行了刚性基础上加筋土挡墙的离心模型试验研究,结合试验结果论证了间接加筋作用及密筋状态下加筋土挡墙的工作机理,提出了进一步研究的思路。     

桩承式加筋路堤作用机理理论分析与数值模拟

软土地基上填筑高路堤常常面临地基承载力不足、沉降和不均匀沉降过大等问题。桩承式加筋路堤能够有效地解决这些难题。通过理论分析和有限元数值模拟,研究了路堤填土-加筋材料-桩体-桩间土之间的相互作用机理,讨论了路堤填土中的土拱效率、桩体效率、路堤底面差异沉降和筋材拉力的变化规律。研究结果表明,填土中的土拱效应和筋材张力膜效应能够有效地提高桩体效率,防止软土屈服;筋材内部拉力呈非线性分布,桩顶边缘处筋材拉力最大。

结合三峡库区弃渣灾害的防治和回填增地,以巫山新城加筋土挡墙等实际工程为典型进行剖析,对加筋土挡墙,特别是超高加筋土挡墙变形破坏机制和过程进行了系统深入的研究。从加筋土挡墙填土物理力学性质室内试验研究入手,采用FLAC等数值计算方法,系统地研究了加筋土挡墙的应力状况和变形破坏特性。将离心模拟技术应用于超高多级加筋土挡墙(H=57m)的研究中,进行了三级加筋土挡墙的离心模型试验,对加筋土挡墙墙背土压力分布规律、挡墙面板和填土的沉降情况以及拉筋的拉力分布规律进行了详细而系统的研究。特别是精心设计出离心模型试验中三级挡墙的面板与拉筋的联结,较真实地反映了实际工程中加筋土挡墙整体复合结构的力学特性。根据研究结果,提出了巫山新城加筋土挡墙修复加固方案,编制了设计报告,并加以实施。目前,修复加固工程效果良好。　对库区,乃至全国超高加筋土挡墙的建设均有指导和示范作用。     

Seismic response of flexible cantilever retaining walls with dry backfill

Failure of retaining walls during earthquakes has occurred many times in the past. Although significant progress has been made in analysing the seismic response of rigid gravity type retaining walls, considerable difficulties still exist in the seismic-resistant design of the flexible cantilever type of retaining walls because of the complex nature of the dynamic soil–structure interaction. In this paper the seismic response of cantilever retaining walls with dry backfill is simulated using centrifuge modelling and numerical modelling. It is found that bending moments on the wall increased significantly during an earthquake. After the end of base shaking, the residual moment on the wall was significantly higher than the moment under static loading. The numerical simulation is able to model quite accurately the main characteristics of acceleration, bending moment, and displacement recorded in the centrifuge test.     

Computational simulation of time-dependent behavior of soil–structure interaction by using a novel creep model: Application to a geosynthetic-reinforced soil physical model

In this paper, a model geosynthetic-reinforced soil retaining walls (GRS-RW) is tested by vertically loading it through a rough footing on the top near the retaining wall and the results are simulated by a sophisticated nonlinear Finite Element Method (FEM) having a novel rate dependent constitutive model for both the backfill material and the geosynthetic reinforcement. Usually, polymer geosynthetic reinforcement is known to exhibit more-or-less rate-dependent stress–strain or load–strain behavior due to their viscous properties. The geomaterials (i.e., clay, sand, gravel and soft rock) also exhibit viscous properties. The viscous behavior of geometrials are quite different from that of the polymer based geosynthetic-reinforcements. It has been revealed recently that viscous behavior of sand is a kind of temporary effect, which vanishes with time. So the rate-dependent deformation of backfill reinforced with polymer geosynthetic reinforcement becomes highly complicated due to interactions between the elasto-viscoplastic properties of backfill and reinforcement. In the present study, a scaled model geosynthetic-reinforced soil retaining wall is tested with a vertically loaded rough rigid footing. The results of the model test are simulated by using an appropriate elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model of both sand and geogrid embedded in a nonlinear plane strain FEM.     

软粘土层上的油罐差异沉降

根据某一大型油罐软基加固处理工程方案设计和优选需要,按照离心模型相似律,开展了三组模型试验,分别模拟了天然地基、土工合成材料袋装碎石垫层和既在填土层中设置袋装碎石垫层又在淤泥质粘土层设置土工合成材料排水板三种情况,以研究这一加固布置形式对减小高压缩性软土层地基上油罐罐底的差异沉降效果反应。模型油罐地基采用原型土重塑制备,现场土工合成材料袋装碎石采用柔性机织玻璃纤维细管塞装粗砂条模拟,并在不停机运转条件下模拟了多次充放水预压加载。试验结果表明,油罐软弱地基经土工合成材料袋装碎石加固后,罐底总沉降值和差异沉降值均明显小于天然地基情形下对应的沉降值,罐底畸变得到显著减小,就本文所述的土质条件、土层厚度和预压荷载强度,地基经加固处理后,油罐罐底畸变减小了近50 %。最后就土工合成材料在加固油罐地基布置形式的合理性进行了初步探讨。     

Centrifuge Modeling of Rock Slopes Susceptible to Block Toppling

Summary This paper presents the results of centrifuge tests that were aimed at validating the Goodman-Bray method for rock slope toppling analysis. The Goodman-Bray method was extended by the authors to accommodate non-persistent basal planes of rock columns. Two gypsum column models, with and without anchors were used to represent the failure modes. Measured critical centrifuge accelerations were in agreement with the results obtained from numerical modeling. A background of the toppling slope failures associated with a large hydropower project in China instigated the need for the centrifuge study. The centrifuge model tests used an artificial rock. The observed failure mode did not follow a straight failure plane as proposed by Goodman and Bray. The failures revealed a bi-planar slip surface with a deep-seated portion near the toe of the slope. The outcomes of the centrifuge tests illustrated the need to search for the critical failure surface when performing a toppling analysis. The search technique is similar to that usually performed in a conventional sliding analysis.     

FE analysis of grid reinforced embankment system on soft Bangkok clay

The behavior of a reinforced embankment on soft Bangkok clay has been analyzed by plane strain finite element method. The finite element analysis considers the selection of proper soil/reinforcement properties according to the relative displacement pattern of upper and lower interface elements. The large deformation phenomenon is simulated by updating the node coordinates, including those of the embankment elements above the current construction level, which ensures that the applied fill thickness simulates the actual field value. A full scale test reinforced embankment with a vertical face (wall) on Bangkok clay has been analyzed by the proposed finite element method, and the numerical results are compared with the field data. The response of a reinforced embankment on soft ground is principally controlled by the interaction between the reinforced soil mass and soft ground and the interaction between the grid reinforcement and the backfill soil. The tension in reinforcement and lateral displacement of the wall face varied during consolidation of foundation soil. The maximum tension force occurred in the reinforcement layer placed at the base of reinforced mass, due to bending of the reinforced mass resulting from differential settlements. It is considered necessary to account for the permeability variation of the soft ground foundation in the finite element analysis.     

刚性挡土墙主动土压力颗粒流模拟

将土体离散为具有滑动连接模型的刚性条块,用颗粒流PFC2D程序数值从细观力学角度模拟了墙体平移(T)、绕墙底转动(RB)和绕墙顶转动(RT)位移模式下不同位移大小时刚性挡土主动土压力分布。模拟结果表明：刚性挡墙主动土压力非线性分布、墙土间外摩擦角和土体剪切角或内摩擦角对土压力有很大影响;墙体绕顶部转动时,大约0.3倍墙高以上的主动土压力大于静止土压力产生土拱效应;模拟计算值与模型试验实测数据吻合比较好,具有一定的理论价值。     

储油罐环形加筋防护墙变形特征及其影响因素

储油罐环形加筋防护墙是由填土、筋体、格栅返包式面板组成的一个环形整体复合结构,具有明显的空间特性及其与储油罐之间复杂的相互作用,相关研究理论明显滞后于工程应用。由于环形加筋防护墙无法忽略其空间特性的影响,通过Plaxis 3D三维有限元软件进行数值模拟,采用小应变土体硬化模型作为加筋土体本构模型,研究储油罐环形加筋防护墙墙体的变形特征及加筋材料的受力特征,探讨墙体高度、厚度、墙面坡度及土工格栅刚度、加筋间距等因素对墙体变形特征的影响。结果表明:防护墙墙面侧位移随着防护墙高度、厚度和墙面倾斜角度的减小而减小,但墙体厚度过小和加筋间距过大将导致防护墙倾覆趋势增大,过小的土工格栅刚度会导致墙侧位移过大,因此需严格控制以上设计参数;加筋防护墙墙体的修筑将加大储油罐边缘处地基沉降,储油罐内燃油的装载状态不影响加筋防护墙地基沉降情况,但油罐地基最大沉降差随着储油罐内装载燃油的增多而减小;根据格栅最大拉应力位置所推测的加筋防护墙破坏面经过墙趾曲线,墙后土压力受墙面坡度影响巨大,设计时应根据坡度选择合适的设计方法。     

绕顶转动模式下三维被动土压力的数值研究

已有的刚性挡土墙上三维被动土压力的研究主要基于挡土墙平移模式(T位移模式)下开展的，而对挡土墙绕顶转动模式(RT位移模式)下三维被动土压力的研究尚不充分。因此，该文采用数值方法系统地研究了RT位移模式下三维被动土压力及三维空间滑裂面性状。针对无黏性土体，得到了挡土墙宽度与深度比值、土体摩擦角大小和墙土接触面摩擦角比值对三维被动土压力系数及墙后土体滑裂面的影响，并与T位移模式下的三维被动土压力系数和墙后土体的空间滑裂面形态进行了定量的比较。研究结果表明:RT位移模式下的三维被动土压力系数和空间滑裂面形态均受土体内摩擦角及墙土接触面摩擦角比值的影响，且两者之间存在相互联系。RT位移模式下的三维被动土压力系数和空间滑裂面形态与T位移模式下有显著的区别；RT位移模式下的三维被动土压力系数及空间滑裂面相比于T位移模式下较小。研究成果可为RT位移模式下三维被动土压力的进一步研究和相关工程设计提供参考。     

Analysis of settlement and lateral deformation of soft clay foundation beneath two full-scale embankments

In 1986, the Malaysian Highway Authority constructed a series of trial embankments on the Muar Plain (soft marine clay) with the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of various ground improvement techniques. This study investigates the effect of two such ground improvement schemes: (a) preloading of foundation with surface geogrids and synthetic vertical drains and (b) sand compaction piles. The paper is focused on the finite element analysis of settlements and lateral displacements of the soft foundation. In scheme (a), the numerical predictions are compared with the field measurements. In scheme (b), only the numerical analysis is presented and discussed in the absence of reliable measurements due to the malfunctioning of the electronic extensometer and inclinometer system during embankment construction. The current analysis employs critical state soil mechanics, and the deformations are predicted on the basis of the fully coupled (Biot) consolidation model. The vertical drain pattern is converted to equivalent drain walls to enable plane strain modelling, and the geogrids are simulated by linear interface slip elements. The effect of sand compaction piles is investigated considering both ideal drains and non-ideal drains, as well as varying the pile stiffness. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

顶部条形基础作用下加筋挡墙性能的试验研究

针对加筋挡墙顶部受条形基础载荷作用时的工作性能开展试验研究,分析条形基础距挡墙面板距离对基础极限承载力、加筋挡墙变形特点、筋材应变和破坏模式的影响。试验结果表明：基础极限承载力随基础偏移距离 增加呈现先增大后减小的趋势,且在 为 （ 为挡墙高度）时达到最大值;条形基础加载至破坏前一级载荷时,基础沉降与挡墙高度比值均小于2%,面板水平位移与挡墙高度比值均小于1%,且当 小于0.6时,面板顶部水平位移明显大于中底部;各层筋材中应变最大值随 增加而逐渐向远离面板方向发展,且筋材最大应变由最初出现在顶层而转向中间层;顶部受条形基础载荷作用下加筋挡墙破坏以3种模式为主,即顶层面板挤出的浅层破坏、破坏面沿基础边缘发展并向深部推进和加筋挡墙整体破坏。
