初始孔压非均布条件下散体材料桩复合地基固结理论研究

针对现有复合地基固结理论仍不能考虑实际工程中存在的初始孔压非均布情况的不足,采用解析方法对散体材料桩复合地基进行深入研究,给出了考虑初始孔压非均布的散体材料桩复合地基固结一般解。探讨了初始孔压非均布的3种特殊情况,导出了初始孔压矩形分布（均布）、正三角形分布和倒三角形分布等情况下的复合地基平均孔压和平均固结度表达式。研究表明：单面排水条件下,初始孔压分布对复合地基固结有显著影响;初始孔压均布和正三角形分布条件下,超静孔压随Tv值的增大而逐渐消散,固结期间地基底部孔压值最大;初始孔压倒三角形和梯形（pB /pT =0.5）分布条件下,Tv值越大,孔压等时线越平缓,且孔压最大值的位置由地基顶部向底部转移,固结过程中底部孔压变化呈现“从小变大、再变小”的特点     

罕遇地震下的屈曲约束支撑框架结构的动力响应研究

为分析支撑布置方式、刚度比、结构总层数等因素在罕遇地震下对屈曲约束支撑框架结构动力响应的影响,借助有限元分析软件SAP2000,分别对6层、12层、18层屈曲约束支撑框架结构模型进行了罕遇地震下的时程分析,详细研究了多高层结构体系的层间位移角、底层剪力、支撑内力等随支撑布置方式、刚度比、结构总层数等因素变化的规律。分析表明,倒V较单斜布置更能有效降低底层剪力、增大支撑轴力、降低层间位移角,从而降低结构的地震响应,更有利于结构消能减震;随着结构总层数的增大,支撑的屈服层数呈现出增多的趋势;刚度比七为2—4时,能使较多层数的屈曲约束支撑参与到消能减震的过程之中,较好地实现抗震设防目标。     

Non-plastic silty sand liquefaction,screening, and remediation

Assessing liquefaction potential, in situ screening using cone penetration resistance, and liquefaction-remediation of non-plastic silty soils are difficult problems. Presence of silt particles among the sand grains in silty soils alter the moduli, shear strength, and flow characteristics of silty soils compared to clean host sand at the same global void ratio. Cyclic resistance (CRR) and normalized cone penetration resistance (q_c1N) are each affected by silt content in a different way. Therefore, a unique correlation between cyclic resistance and cone resistance is not possible for sands and silty sands. Likewise, the response of silty soils subjected to traditional deep dynamic compaction (DC) and vibro-stone column (SC) densification techniques is influenced by the presence of silt particles, compared to the response in sand. Silty soils require drainage-modifications to make them amenable for dynamic densification techniques. The first part of this paper addresses the effects of silt content on cyclic resistance CRR, hydraulic conductivity k, and coefficient of consolidation C_v of silty soils compared to clean sand. The second part of the paper assesses the effectiveness of equivalent intergranular void ratio (e_c)_eq concept to approximately account for the effects of silt content on CRR. The third part of the paper explores the combined effects of silt content (viz effects of (e_c)_eq, k, and C_v) on q_c1N using laboratory model cone tests and preliminary numerical simulation experiments. A possible inter-relationship between q_c1N, CRR, accommodating the different degrees of influence of (e_c)_eq, k, and C_v on q_c1N and CRR, is discussed. The fourth part of the paper focuses on the detrimental effects of silt content on the effectiveness of DC and SC techniques to densify silty soils for liquefaction-mitigation. Finally, the effectiveness of supplemental wick drains to aid drainage and facilitate densification and liquefaction mitigation of silty sands using DC and SC techniques is discussed.

Seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete frames using buckling‐restrained braces with bearing block load transfer mechanism

A new method of retrofitting reinforced concrete (RC) frames with buckling‐restrained braces (BRBs) to improve frame strength, stiffness and energy dissipation is proposed. Instead of typical post‐installed anchors, load is transferred between the BRB and RC frame through compression bearing between an installed steel frame connected to the BRB, and high‐strength mortar blocks constructed at the four corners of the RC frame. This avoids complex on‐site anchor installation, and does not limit the allowable brace force by the anchor strength. Cyclic displacements of increasing amplitudes were imposed on two RC frame specimens retrofitted with different BRB strength capacities. In one of the frames, the bearing blocks were reinforced with wire mesh to mitigate cracking. A third RC frame was also tested as a benchmark to evaluate the retrofit strength and stiffness enhancements. Test results indicate that the proposed method efficiently transferred loads between the BRBs and RC frames, increasing the frame lateral strength while achieving good ductility and energy‐dissipating capacity. When the bearing block was reinforced with wire mesh, the maximum frame lateral strength and stiffness were more than 2.2 and 3.5 times the RC frame without the BRB respectively. The BRB imposes additional shear demands through the bearing blocks to both ends of the RC beam and column member discontinuity regions (D‐regions). The softened strut‐and‐tie model satisfactorily estimated the shear capacities of the D‐regions. A simplified calculation and a detailed PISA3D analysis were shown to effectively predict member demands to within 13.8% difference of the measured test results.

Performance of geosynthetic-reinforced granular piles in soft clays: Model tests and numerical analysis

The laboratory model tests and numerical analyses have been performed on reinforced granular piles installed in very soft clay. The granular piles were reinforced with geosynthetic in the form of vertical encasement, horizontal strips and combined vertical-horizontal reinforcement. The short term-displacement control model tests were carried out either only a granular pile loaded or with an entire area loaded. The laboratory results in the form of vertical load intensity-settlement behaviour were compared with that obtained from FEM software, PLAXIS 3D. The results indicated significant improvement in ultimate load intensity and stiffness of treated ground due to inclusion of geosynthetic.
