Dynamic Stability Analysis of Caisson Breakwater in Lifetime Considering the Annual Frequency of Severe Storm

In the dynamic stability analysis of a caisson breakwater, most of current studies pay attention to the motion characteristics of caisson breakwaters under a single periodical breaking wave excitation. And in the lifetime stability analysis of caisson breakwater, it is assumed that the caisson breakwater suffers storm wave excitation once annually in the design lifetime. However, the number of annual severe storm occurrence is a random variable. In this paper, a series of random waves are generated by the Wen Sheng-chang wave spectrum, and the histories of successive and long-term random wave forces are built up by using the improved Goda wave force model. It is assumed that the number of annual severe storm occurrence is in the Poisson distribution over the 50-year design lifetime, and the history of random wave excitation is generated for each storm by the wave spectrum. The response histories of the caisson breakwater to the random waves over 50-year design lifetime are calculated and taken as a set of samples. On the basis of the Monte Carlo simulation technique, a large number of samples can be obtained, and the probability assessment of the safety of the breakwater during the complete design lifetime is obtained by statistical analysis of a large number of samples. Finally, the procedure of probability assessment of the breakwater safety is illustrated by an example.

苏北废黄河三角洲海岸线动态演变分析

以苏北废黄河三角洲海岸1989、1995、2006和2010年4期Landsat TM影像为数据源,运用一般高潮线法,对各期影像分类处理后提取海岸线,分析了研究区海岸线21年间动态演变的时空分布特征,并初步探讨其主要控制因素。结果表明:(1)北翼灌河口—中山河口岸段在1989-2010年21年间整体表现为蚀淤交替,淤积岸段逐渐向南迁移,主要集中分布于普港和新滩港岸段,平均淤积速率最大达39.82 m/a(2006-2010);中部岬角中山河口—扁担河口岸段在研究期间平均蚀退速率为13.79 m/a,其中南段侵蚀强度最高,可达23.23 m/a,为整个研究区海岸侵蚀最快的岸段,北段次之,中段最低,随时间推进,总体侵蚀渐缓;南翼扁担河口—夸套河口岸段21年间平均蚀退速率达17.30 m/a,夸套河口以南则呈现快速淤积-缓慢淤积-蚀淤基本平衡的过渡态势。(2)近20多年来,废黄河三角洲海岸由于受到海岸轮廓形态、动力作用(波浪、潮流、沿岸流与重力等)及人类活动(保滩护岸工程、盐田与围垦工程及港口工程等)的影响,各岸段呈现出不同的侵蚀-淤积特点。     

格型钢板桩结构数值建模方法研究

针对格型钢板桩结构的三种建模方法(考虑板桩间铰接特性,用壳体单元模拟板桩的有限元模型;不考虑板桩间铰接特性,用壳体单元模拟板桩的有限元模型;将格体看做一个整体,用实体单元模拟板桩的有限元模型)进行分析,对各种建模方法得出的关于稳定性、破坏模式、格体环向应力、格体内外土体压力的相关结论进行比较,得到适合工程应用的建模方法。结果表明:三种有限元模型中,考虑板桩间铰接特性的壳体单元模型,因其考虑因素全面,是最准确的模型。对于重要工程,应采用考虑板桩间铰接特性的壳体单元模型进行计算。对于一般工程结构,在稳定性分析方面,三种有限元模型都很适用,由于壳体单元模型收敛性较差,建议采用比较成熟的实体单元模型进行简化;对于破坏模式和板桩间环向应力,建议采用不考虑板桩间铰接作用的壳体单元模型进行简化;对于结构背浪侧格型钢板桩结构格体外侧土体最大被动土压力和格内土体压力,采用不考虑板桩间铰接特性的壳体单元模型进行估算。结论对工程数值建模运算具有指导意义。

舒兰盆地构造格架的地球物理制约

舒兰盆地位于佳伊地堑中南段,伊通盆地东北部,是北东向展布的一个狭长状断陷盆地,前人仅对舒兰盆地开展过初步的地质调查,但对盆地构造特征、演化过程的研究相对薄弱.综合区域地质资料、孢粉资料等,分析对比了舒兰盆地与伊通盆地的新生代沉积地层;通过电法、地震剖面解析,认为盆地南段为半地堑式构造特征,中段为地堑式构造特征,盆地北段从西北至东南呈阶梯状加深的构造形态;结合钻井资料分析认为,盆地基底岩性南段以上二叠统杨家沟组为主,中段主要由花岗岩和白垩系组成,北段主要由白垩系组成;综合分析认为,舒兰盆地构造演化可划分为3个构造演化阶段,即初始断陷期(古新世早期)、断陷期(古新世—渐新世)和挤压反转期(渐新世—中新世).

Dynamic Characteristics and Simplified Numerical Methods of An All-Vertical-Piled Wharf in Offshore Deep Water

There has been a growing trend in the development of offshore deep-water ports in China. For such deep sea projects, all-vertical-piled wharves are suitable structures and generally located in open waters, greatly affected by wave action. Currently, no systematic studies or simplified numerical methods are available for deriving the dynamic characteristics and dynamic responses of all-vertical-piled wharves under wave cyclic loads. In this article, we compare the dynamic characteristics of an all-vertical-piled wharf with those of a traditional inshore high-piled wharf through numerical analysis; our research reveals that the vibration period of an all-vertical-piled wharf under cyclic loading is longer than that of an inshore high-piled wharf and is much closer to the period of the loading wave. Therefore, dynamic calculation and analysis should be conducted when designing and calculating the characteristics of an all-vertical-piled wharf. We establish a dynamic finite element model to examine the dynamic response of an all-vertical-piled wharf under wave cyclic loads and compare the results with those under wave equivalent static load; the comparison indicates that dynamic amplification of the structure is evident when the wave dynamic load effect is taken into account. Furthermore, a simplified dynamic numerical method for calculating the dynamic response of an all-vertical-piled wharf is established based on the P-Y curve. Compared with finite element analysis, the simplified method is more convenient to use and applicable to large structural deformation while considering the soil non-linearity. We confirmed that the simplified method has acceptable accuracy and can be used in engineering applications.
