涂抹区重叠竖井地基固结特性研究

在软基处理工程中,经常出现竖井打设变密而地基固结效率降低的现象。鉴于此,建立了重叠涂抹区内土体水平向渗透系数的分布函数,给出了涂抹区重叠时竖井地基超静孔压和平均固结度的解析解。通过分析不同工况下竖井地基固结度随竖井间距的变化情况,探究了竖井间距减小而地基固结效率不增反减的成因。最后,探讨了涂抹作用和井阻作用对竖井最小临界间距的影响。结果表明：相邻竖井涂抹区重叠是竖井地基中出现竖井最小临界间距的根本原因。涂抹作用越大,则竖井最小临界间距越大;具体表现为当地基扰动程度增大时或涂抹区半径增大时,竖井最小临界间距随之增大。井阻作用越大,则竖井最小临界间距越小;具体表现为当竖井渗透系数减小时、竖井长度增大时或竖井半径减小时,竖井最小临界间距随之减小。     

Effect of spatial correlation structure and transformation model on the design of shallow strip footing

Directional variability of spatial correlation is observed in natural soils due to their depositional characteristics and it influences the response of structures founded on these deposits. Nonetheless, the results presented in most of the available literature are based on the assumption of either isotropic spatial correlation or perfect spatial correlation of soil properties in horizontal and vertical directions. It is also observed from past studies that the effect of transformation model on the total uncertainty is quite significant. Hence, an effort has been made in this paper to study the effect of anisotropy of autocorrelation characteristics of cone tip resistance (q_c) and the transformation model on the bearing capacity of a shallow strip footing, founding on the surface of a spatially varying soil mass. The statistics in the vertical direction of the soil mass are taken from 8 Cone Penetration Test (CPT) records and statistics in the horizontal direction are assumed. For the case considered, it is observed that the transformation model significantly influences the degree of variability of design parameter. The results also show that isotropic correlation structure based on the vertical autocorrelation distance underestimates the variability of design parameter. On the other hand, perfect correlation in horizontal or vertical, or both directions, overestimates the variability of design parameters, and produces conservative estimates of allowable bearing capacity.     

考虑井阻时空变化的竖井地基非线性固结解析解

软土固结过程中展现出明显的非线性压缩和渗透特性,同时竖井的淤堵效应常导致井阻在固结过程中随深度和时间不断演化,但目前能考虑井阻随时空演化的竖井地基非线性固结解析解还很鲜见。通过引入孔隙比与有效应力及孔隙比与渗透系数间的半对数模型描述了土体的非线性固结特性,建立了能同时考虑井阻随时空变化和涂抹影响的竖井地基非线性固结模型,并采用分离变量法获得了固结模型的解析解。将特定参数下固结解的计算结果与实测数据、已有的竖井地基固结解答进行了对比分析以验证其可靠性。最后,对竖井地基的非线性固结性状开展了大量计算分析。结果表明：竖井渗透系数随深度线性衰减越明显则地基固结速率越慢;外荷载一定时,随着软土压缩指数c_c与渗透率指数c_k之比的增大,竖井地基固结速度减慢;在c_c /c_k值不变的情况下,外荷载增加,地基固结速率加快。在涂抹区的3种径向渗透系数变化模式中,抛物线变化模式下的地基固结速度最快,线性变化模式下的地基固结速度次之,恒定模式下的地基固结速度最慢,且这种性状并不因为考虑井阻变化或土体非线性固结特性而发生改变。     

考虑井阻及涂抹作用的非饱和土竖井地基固结解析解

以往的非饱和土竖井地基研究中未同时考虑竖井的井阻和涂抹作用,大部分按理想竖井进行研究,然而井阻和涂抹作用是影响非饱和土竖井地基固结的重要因素.针对这种情况,本文基于Fredlund非饱和土一维固结理论及等应变假设,引入变量将超孔隙压力耦合控制方程组转化为等价的线性偏微分方程组,考虑涂抹和井阻条件,并采用分离变量法和待定...     

Consolidation of vertical drain with depth-varying stress induced by multi-stage loading

An explicit analytical solution is developed for the consolidation of vertical drain with both radial and vertical drainage by adopting a depth-varying stress induced by multi-stage loading. The well resistance and smear effect are also considered. The smear effect is described by three decay patterns of horizontal permeability towards drains within the smeared zone, including a reduced constant pattern, a linear decay pattern and a parabolic decay pattern. A parameter analysis is performed to investigate the consolidation behavior of the vertical drain. The convergence of the proposed series solution is discussed.

Finite element consolidation analysis of soils with vertical drain

This paper presents a finite element procedure for the analysis of consolidation of layered soils with vertical drain using general one‐dimensional (1‐D) constitutive models. In formulating the finite element procedure, a Newton–Cotes‐type integration formula is used to avoid the unsymmetry of the stiffness matrix for a Newton (Modified Newton) iteration scheme. The proposed procedure is then applied for the consolidation analysis of a number of typical problems using both linear and non‐linear soil models. Results from this simplified method are compared with those from a fully coupled consolidation analysis using a well‐known finite element package. The average degree of consolidation, excess porewater pressure and average vertical effective stress are almost the same as those from the fully coupled analysis for both the linear and non‐linear cases studied. The differences in vertical effective stresses are tolerable except for the values near the vertical drain boundaries. The consolidation behaviour of soils below a certain depth of the bottom of vertical drain is actually one‐dimensional for the partially penetrating case. Therefore, there are not much differences in whether one uses a one‐dimensional model or a three‐dimensional model in this region. The average degree of consolidation has good normalized feature with respect to the ratio of well radius to external drainage boundary for the cases of fully penetrating vertical drain using a normalized time even in the non‐linear case. Numerical results clearly demonstrate that the proposed simplified finite element procedure is efficient for the consolidation analysis of soils with vertical drain and it has better numerical stability characteristics. This simplified method can easily account for layered systems, time‐dependent loading, well‐resistance, smear effects and inelastic stress–strain behaviour. This method is also very suitable for the design of vertical drain, since it greatly reduces the unknown variables in the calculation and the 1‐D soil model parameters can be more easily determined.

考虑温度耦合效应的竖井地基固结有限元分析

针对塑料排水板(PVD)安装热源能提升PVD性能、加速竖井地基固结这一工程现象,基于热-水-应力 (T-H-M) 三场全耦合的有限元方法来模拟利用热源进行地基处理新技术(PVTD)。首先,以微分形式与等效弱形式分别给出T-H-M耦合控制方程,并推导出其有限元方程组。然后在多场耦合有限元软件中建立饱和土的T-H-M全耦合模型,并通过与已有解析解比较,验证了模型正确性。最后,对一个经典有涂抹区的竖井地基算例,分不耦合温度(UT)、耦合温度但不考虑其对饱和土物性影响(CT)、耦合温度考虑温度对饱和土渗透性影响(CTP) 3种情况进行固结计算分析。研究结果表明,相对于无热源竖井地基,CT情况下由于热源产生的附加孔隙水压力,固结速度略有下降;CTP情况下,由于热源有效改善涂抹区的渗透性能,竖井地基固结速率明显加快。上述研究结论从理论上较好地阐明了PVTD的作用机制。     

Numerical simulation of groundwater flowing to horizontal seepage wells under a river

A horizontal seepage well, consisting of an interconnected vertical well, galleries, chambers and small-diameter radiating bores, is used to acquire relatively clean water that has been filtered through natural alluvial deposits in a riverbed. It has wide application, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. The lack of calculation formulae or models for horizontal seepage wells, up until now, has resulted in several false applications. Based on the analysis of groundwater flow characteristics, it has been concluded that several flow regimes coexist and hydraulic head loss exists in the horizontal seepage well. To avoid the difficulty of confirming the flux or head distribution in such a complex system, the model boundary of the whole horizontal seepage well has been moved to that of just the vertical well, and the well-aquifer system was treated as a heterogeneous medium, where the horizontal seepage well itself is a highly permeability medium. A mathematical model has been developed, based on the coupled seepage-pipe flow, by the introduction of equivalent hydraulic conductivity according to different flow regimes. Then a three-dimensional finite difference numerical model, based on the mathematical model, was developed and applied to a horizontal seepage well in China. The numerical model verified the groundwater flow characteristics of the horizontal seepage well. An erratum to this article can be found at     

Numerical simulation of landslide dam breaching due to overtopping

The breach of landslide dam often causes significant disaster in the inundated area; the prediction of breach hydrograph is in high demand for the dam breach risk evaluation. In this study, according to the model tests and Tangjiashan landslide dam breach case, the surface erosion accompanied by intermittent mass failure is known as the key breaching mechanism for landslide dam due to overtopping failure. The downstream slope angle would gradually decrease during the dam-breaching process, whereas a planar wedge failure occurs when the breach slopes at the dam crest and downstream breach channel fail. Based on the breach mechanism, a numerical model for landslide dam breach due to overtopping is developed to simulate the coupling process of water and soil. The model focuses on the breach morphology evolution during the breaching for the sake of the improvement of breach hydrograph prediction. Furthermore, the model can handle one- and two-sided breach, as well as incomplete and base erosion at the vertical direction. The case study of Tangjiashan landslide dam-breaching feedback analysis testifies the rationality of the present model with the relative errors less than 10% for peak discharge, final breach widths, and time to peak. The sensitivity analysis indicates that the final breach depth and soil erodibility affect the breach flow prediction of the landslide dam significantly, whereas the one- or two-sided breach mode is less sensitive.     

基于非等温管道流竖井地基热排水固结模拟

针对新技术热排水固结法,采用非等温管道流模拟竖井中U型导热管的传热过程,考虑温度对竖井扰动区和未扰动区渗透性的影响,在COMSOL Multiphysics有限元软件中进行二次开发,建立了竖井地基热排水固结法的有限元模型。以热排水固结软基处理原型试验为例,重点分析了模型耦合、部分耦合和不耦合情况下软土地基的固结度。结果表明,相对于传统排水固结法的不耦合模型,部分耦合模型下因温度产生的孔压增量延缓了地基固结的发展,固结速率有所减慢;耦合模型下温度虽也产生一定的孔压增量,但温度有效地改善了竖井涂抹区土的渗透特性,地基的固结速率加快,固结周期缩短,与试验结果一致。     

Simplified three-dimensional analysis of horizontally vibrating floating and fixed-end pile groups

This note presents an approximate analytical solution for estimating the time-harmonic impedance of pile groups subjected to horizontal dynamic loads, for different boundary conditions at pile tip (free and fixed). The derived solution considers waves due to pile vibrations propagating in both horizontal and vertical directions, unlike earlier solutions based on the plane-strain model, which ignores vertically propagating waves. This allows accounting for pile boundary conditions on the soil attenuation function, as well as modeling the response of the pipe group-soil system near the first natural frequency of the soil layer, where solutions based on the plane-strain model fail to account for resonance phenomena.     

Analysis of pile‐raft foundations under complex loads in layered soils

Considering there is hardly any concerted effort to analyze the pile‐raft foundations under complex loads (combined with vertical loads, horizontal loads and moments), an analysis method is proposed in this paper to estimate the responses of pile‐raft foundations which are subjected to vertical loads, horizontal loads and moments in layered soils based on solutions for stresses and displacements in layered elastic half space. Pile to pile, pile to soil surface, soil surface to pile and soil surface to soil surface interactions are key ingredients for calculating the responses of pile‐raft foundations accurately. Those interactions are fully taken into account to estimate the responses of pile‐raft foundations subject to vertical loads, horizontal loads and moments in layered soils. The constraints of the raft on vertical movements, horizontal movements and rotations of the piles as well as the constraints of the raft on vertical movements and horizontal movements of the soils are considered to reflect the coupled effect on the raft. The method is verified through comparisons with the published methods and FEM. Then, the method is adopted to investigate the influence of soil stratigraphy on pile responses. The study shows that it is necessary to consider the soil non‐homogeneity when estimating the responses of pile‐raft foundations in layered soils, especially when estimating the horizontal responses of pile‐raft foundations. The horizontal loads and the moments have a significant impact on vertical responses of piles in pile‐raft foundations, while vertical loads have little influence on horizontal responses of piles in pile‐raft foundations in the cases of small deformations. The proposed method can provide a simple and useful tool for engineering design. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

考虑涂抹区压缩及渗透系数变化的堆载预压固结解

为评估涂抹区土体压缩和渗透系数变化对含竖向排水体地基固结的影响,采用等体积应变假设,考虑涂抹区土体的压缩变形及其水平向渗透系数沿径向分别呈线性和抛物线分布,并考虑井阻作用以及地基附加球应力沿深度任意分布,推导了随时间线性堆载预压条件下固结微分方程的显式解析解答,分析了涂抹区半径、水平向渗透系数的分布模式、以及体积压缩系数对地基整体平均固结度的影响。结果表明,涂抹区土体采用均匀折减的水平向渗透系数明显低估了地基的固结速率,而当涂抹区半径较大时,不考虑涂抹区土体的压缩变形将会高估地基的固结速率。在含竖向排水体地基固结问题的分析中,这些影响不可忽视。

Bearing capacity of strip footings on spatially random soils using sparse polynomial chaos expansion

A probabilistic model is presented to compute the probability density function (PDF) of the ultimate bearing capacity of a strip footing resting on a spatially varying soil. The soil cohesion and friction angle were considered as two anisotropic cross‐correlated non‐Gaussian random fields. The deterministic model was based on numerical simulations. An efficient uncertainty propagation methodology that makes use of a non‐intrusive approach to build up a sparse polynomial chaos expansion for the system response was employed. The probabilistic numerical results were presented in the case of a weightless soil. Sobol indices have shown that the variability of the ultimate bearing capacity is mainly due to the soil cohesion. An increase in the coefficient of variation of a soil parameter (c or φ) increases its Sobol index, this increase being more significant for the friction angle. The negative correlation between the soil shear strength parameters decreases the response variability. The variability of the ultimate bearing capacity increases with the increase in the coefficients of variation of the random fields, the increase being more significant for the cohesion parameter. The decrease in the autocorrelation distances may lead to a smaller variability of the ultimate bearing capacity. Finally, the probabilistic mean value of the ultimate bearing capacity presents a minimum. This minimum is obtained in the isotropic case when the autocorrelation distance is nearly equal to the footing breadth. However, for the anisotropic case, this minimum is obtained at a given value of the ratio between the horizontal and vertical autocorrelation distances. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Origins and implications of soil layering

Layering is common in soils, due to a variety of pedologic and geologic processes, and has important consequences for the interpretation of soils and landscapes. Layering can derive from original sedimentary layering; depositional upbuilding; episodic surface erosion, deposition, and stability; soil production by weathering; vertical or lateral translocation; bioturbation; and various combinations of these. Complex and polygenetic models incorporate both geogenic and pedogenic processes, and allow for physical and biological processes, as well as both vertical and horizontal movements. We review these conceptual frameworks and synthesize them into a vertical contrast model (VCM) for interpreting layered surficial materials. The VCM incorporates a variety of geologic and pedologic processes which may create, destroy, enhance, or obscure vertical contrasts. The model is illustrated via application to sites in the Ouachita Mountains, USA, and northwest Saxonian Lowlands, Germany. The examples illustrate the importance of a comprehensive pedogeomorphic interpretation of layering, since neither standard stratigraphic or top–down pedogenetic principles necessarily apply. The examples also show that the same process can, sometimes contemporaneously, both create and destroy vertical contrasts.
