大位移条件下水平受荷单桩的简明弹塑性计算方法

软土地层中当桩顶水平荷载较大时,采用传统m法计算容易低估桩身弯矩与挠曲变形,有必要针对该问题提出相关计算方法。将地基土体简化为理想弹塑性体,假定桩身某一深度处存在土体的弹塑性变形临界点,临界点以上的土体进入塑性变形状态,而临界点以下的土体仍处于弹性变形状态,分段建立桩身挠曲微分控制方程,得到水平受荷单桩简明弹塑性计算方法。现场单桩实测和参数敏感性分析结果表明:采用简明弹塑性计算方法得到的桩身最大弯矩较传统m法计算精度提高38.1%;桩身最大水平位移计算精度提高22.3%;桩顶边界条件对桩身水平位移与弯矩沿桩身的分布规律影响显著;桩身最大弯矩和水平位移对土体的极限抗力系数及其形状参数较敏感,设计中宜按下限值选取。     

水平推力桩在大位移情况下m值的确定

根据《港口工程桩基规范局部修订》关于m法的新解释,结合某码头2根大直径钢管嵌岩桩的试桩资料总结了m值与泥面处位移 的指数关系以及m值对桩受力特性的影响,发现规范建议的m值难以适应大位移情况下的取值要求。建议通过收集大量有关大位移情况下的试桩资料,根据m值和泥面处位移 的指数关系,统计分析出在各种土质条件下相应于某一大位移时m值的取值范围,为工程设计提供依据。     

考虑坡度效应的水平受荷桩应变楔计算方法

由于坡度效应的存在,常规方法并不适用于斜坡上水平受荷桩的计算,首先开展了斜坡上基桩的横向加载破坏试验,以确定斜坡上基桩的破坏模式。在此基础上,沿坡体方向对破坏土楔体进行斜向单元划分,提出了考虑坡度效应的土体应变楔模型,对于其中的关键参数应变楔深度与应变楔土体应变采用迭代求解。迭代过程中,建立基桩横向受荷的桩-土相互作用方程并用有限杆单元法求解,当求解得到的桩身地面处位移与应变楔模型中地面处土体位移之差小于某一允许值时,得到的基桩的水平位移及内力即为最终解答。通过与试验测试数据的对比,验证了该方法的合理性。最后,将土体破坏深度与边坡斜率的比值定义为陡坡效应影响范围,并对其影响因素进行了对比分析。结果表明,陡坡效应的影响范围受土体强度参数及基桩尺寸等多因素影响,其随着桩径的增加而减小,且随土体强度的增强而减小。     

弹塑性有限元模拟分析影响基坑位移的因素

分析影响基坑支护破坏因素对于防止基坑事故的发生,优化基坑支护设计有重要意义。本文用弹塑性有限元方法模拟基坑破坏过程,分析了影响基坑支护破坏的因素。分析结果表明,土体和桩墙的弹性模量都对基坑的位移有一定影响,但土体弹性模量的影响比桩墙弹性模量的影响更大。根据这些结果,推论出传统基坑设计方法与弹性地基梁法的不足之处。另外,分析结果还表明,基坑坑顶水平位移与土体弹性模量的关系无固定规律,而坑底最大位移与弹性模量呈非线性的关系。由此推论出基坑坑顶水平位移监测方法的不可靠性。      

双层地基水平受荷桩受力变形分析

基于双层地基中的水平受荷桩的特性,对其受力变形进行了分析。将水平受荷桩视为竖直放置的弹性地基梁,基于Winkler弹性地基梁理论,考虑桩土共同工作得到水平受荷桩位移控制微分方程及其幂级数解答,进而根据内力与位移的连续条件得到了由桩顶受力及变形条件表示任一深度处桩身的水平位移、转角、弯矩及剪力的计算矩阵表达式。通过一具体算例将幂级数解计算结果与《公路桥涵地基与基础设计规范》推荐的简化计算公式计算结果进行了比较。结果表明：当第1层地基土的厚度在某一定值时,《规范》简化计算方法所得结果与幂级数解接近;但当层厚不在该值附近时,两个方法计算结果存在差异。

土体水平位移对邻近既有桩基承载性状影响分析

城市建设中经常会遇到由于堆载或基坑开挖所引起的土体水平位移现象,土体水平位移的作用会使邻近建筑物的桩基础产生附加内力或变形,并可能导致邻近桩基的破坏而发生工程事故。针对此类问题,基于Winkler地基模型以及桩-土变形协调条件,建立单桩水平位移控制方程,根据内力与位移的微分关系,采用两阶段方法进行求解。结合典型的工程事故,通过参数分析,研究土体水平位移对邻近桩基承载性状的影响程度。分析表明,基坑工程围护墙体的稳定和开挖深度对邻近桩基的安全有着重要影响,并提出了近期发生在上海的某小高层楼房整体倒覆事故的一种可能原因。

基于Poulos弹性理论的被动桩改进算法

传统的Poulos弹性理论仅适合于均质土中土体侧向位移时桩的性状分析,无法考虑土的层状特性。通过引入层状地基中作用一水平集中力的广义Mindlin解和地面作用有竖向荷载时的应力和位移通解,对Poulos方法进行了改进,使之扩展到多层土中,还用于研究堆载条件下的被动桩变形和受力响应。算例分析表明,改进弹性理论要比Poulos方法更为严密、合理,提高了计算精度,应用范围也更广。

针对地基的土体屈服性状,将桩侧土体分为弹性变形区域与塑性变形区域两种情况。假定地基反力系数为3参数的一般形式,同时考虑桩身 效应并计入桩身自重、桩侧摩阻力的影响,根据地基反力法分别建立桩身弹性段和塑性段挠曲线微分方程。在解微分方程的过程中,采用矩阵传递法结合Laplace正逆变换的方法解得桩顶作用轴向力、水平力、弯矩时桩身内力和变形的矩阵传递解,并用Fortran语言编制了相应计算程序。最后将试验数据对上述方法进行验证,结果表明计算值与模型试验的实测值吻合很好,采用文中3参数地基反力法反算所得的地基参数离散性很小,研究结果具有较高的应用价值。     

砂土中桩土侧向相互作用的应变楔模型修正

提出了砂土中水平受荷单桩的修正应变楔方法。从3个方面对应变楔模型进行了修正,首先假设三维被动土楔后桩身的水平位移呈非线性变化,从而使得楔形体内的水平应变不再是一常量,而是沿深度变化。其次引入了两个双曲线型的模型分别用以模拟楔形体中土体的水平应力增量-应变关系和桩-土界面处桩侧剪应力-位移关系。然后通过算例验证了修正方法的有效性,模拟结果与实测结果吻合较好。最后分析了各个修正因素对计算结果影响,结果显示,非线性位移假设的引入对原应变楔模型计算的水平承载力偏高有明显地改善,新的水平应力增量-应变关系和桩侧剪应力-位移关系的引入使得应变楔方法更加简便有效。

Boundary element analysis of axially loaded piles embedded in a multi-layered soil

In a field, piles are likely installed in a multi-layered soil. Analysis of axially loaded piles in a multi-layered soil is complicated and deserves more attention. A boundary element method is used in this study to analyze an axially loaded single pile in a multi-layered soil using the solution for vertical and horizontal axisymmetric ring loads in a multi-layered elastic medium. Good and reasonable agreement is obtained between the proposed and published solutions for a single pile in a homogenous soil, a finite soil, and a Gibson soil. The proposed solution is also used to evaluate an axially loaded single pile in a multi-layered (8 layers) soil.     

抗滑桩全桩计算的有限差分法

有限差分法求解分析抗滑桩(或预应力锚索抗滑桩)常采用Winkle弹性地基梁法。在对有限差分法分析的基础上,文章改进了有限差分法求解抗滑桩全桩内力和变形的计算方法。对全桩整体采用有限差分方法求解其内力,避免了将桩身分为受荷段和锚固段及利用滑面处连续条件求解的复杂过程。该方法对滑坡推力与地基系数取值,可依据实际情况假定为广义形式来模拟土体对抗滑桩的作用工况。能很好地求解预应力锚索作用于桩身或桩身设多道锚索工况下的锚索拉力值。并利用Excel对该方法编程,能便捷地计算抗滑桩内力。分析计算结果,当差分节点单元长度适当时,计算结果能够较好地满足工程应用。对比有限元计算分析结果,相同节点单元长度下两者计算相差较小,且节点长度越小,越接近有限元结果。     

嵌岩桩尺寸效应的有限元分析

基于非线性有限元计算,分析了桩的尺寸效应对嵌岩桩承载性状的影响。结果表明：在其他条件一定时,随着桩径的增加,嵌岩深径比减小,桩的承载力有增大的趋势,其主要原因是增强了桩端承载力;另一方面,嵌岩深度也对桩的承载性状有影响,桩嵌入深度越短,桩端承担的荷载就越大。设计时可适当考虑通过增大桩径的办法来提高桩的承载力。     

A multidirectional semi‐analytical method for analysis of laterally loaded pile groups in multi‐layered elastic strata

A semi‐analytical method for calculating the response of single piles and pile groups subjected to lateral loading is developed in this paper. Displacements anywhere in the soil domain are tied to the displacements of the piles through decay functions. The principle of virtual work and the calculus of variations are used to derive the governing differential equations that describe the response of the piles and soil. The eigenvalue method and the finite difference technique are used to solve the system of coupled differential equations for the piles and soil, respectively. The proposed method takes into account the soil surface displacement along and perpendicular to the loading direction and produces displacement fields that are very close to those produced by the finite element method but at lower computational effort. Compared with the previous method that considered only the soil displacement along the loading direction, accounting for the multi‐directional soil displacement field produces responses for the piles and soil that are closer to those approximated by the finite element method.

Finite element simulation of the thermoviscoplastic behaviour of bituminous concrete

The general framework of the paper deals with the finite element modelling of thermomechanical problems involving viscous materials. The study focuses on the statement of constitutive equations describing the thermoviscoplastic behaviour of bituminous concrete, as well as on their implementation in a finite element program. After stating the general equations of the space- and time-continuous problem and the constitutive relations governing the viscoplastic component of the bituminous concrete behaviour, we deal with their integration over finite time steps, considering two different schemes. Eventually, two sets of numerical results are presented. The first one, an homogeneous triaxial test, is used to compare those schemes, whereas the second one consists of numerical simulations of real-size experiments performed on a road structure subjected to thermal and mechanical loadings. By comparing the numerical results with experimental ones, it allows us to test the finite element code on a more complex and realistic problem. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.     

Numerical modelling of large deformations associated with driving of open‐ended piles

This paper presents a ‘Eulerian‐like’ finite element technique to simulate the large accumulated displacements of piles subjected to multiple hammer blows. For each hammer blow, results are obtained using a standard small strain finite element model and, at the end of each hammer blow, material flow is taken into account with reference to a fixed finite element mesh. Residual stresses calculated at the Gauss integration points of the deformed finite element mesh are mapped on to the fixed finite element mesh, and these stresses are used as initial stresses for the next hammer blow. At the end of each hammer blow, stiffness and mass matrices are recalculated for the volume of material remaining inside the fixed finite element mesh. Results obtained with and without allowing material to flow through the fixed mesh are compared for several hammer blows. Build up of residual stresses, soil flow and yielded points around the pile are presented for plugged, partially‐plugged and unplugged piles. Using the new finite element technique, the driving of a pile from the soil surface is studied. The ability to analyse this and other large deformation problems is the main advantage of the new finite element technique. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
