Effect of a forced harmonic vibration pile to its adjacent pile in layered elastic soil with double-shear model

A new model named double-shear model based on Pasternak foundation and Timoshenko beam theory is developed to evaluate the effect of a forced harmonic vibration pile to its adjacent pile in multilayered soil medium. The double-shear model takes into account the shear deformation and the rotational inertia of piles as well as the shear deformation of soil. The piles are simulated as Timoshenko beams, which are embedded in a layered Pasternak foundation. The differential equation of transverse vibration for a pile is solved by the initial parameter method. The dynamic interaction factors for the layered soil medium are obtained by the transfer matrix method. The formulation and the implementation have been verified by means of several examples. The individual shear effects of soil and piles on the interaction factors are evaluated through a parametric study. Compared to Winkler model with Euler beam, the present model gives much better results for the dynamic interaction of piles embedded in stiff soil with small slenderness ratios. Finally, the effect of a forced long pile to a short pile embedded in multilayered soil medium is studied in detail.     

盾构施工对大型立交桥超长桩工作性状的影响

盾构近距离穿越大型立交桥超长桩基础会对桩基础及上部桥梁结构产生不利影响。通过对盾构近距离侧穿超长桩基础过程进行数值模拟,研究了不同深度处盾构掘进对超长桩承载性状、变形和内力的影响。研究表明：盾构近距侧穿超长桩会导致桩身出现较大变形及内力,且隧道轴线与超长桩处于不同相对位置时会对桩的特性产生不同影响。其他条件不变时,盾构从桩身上部的近距离穿越,将引起桩身最大的横向水平位移;盾构从桩身中部近距离穿越则将引起桩身产生沿盾构掘进方向的最大的水平位移;盾构从桩端附近穿越时将引起桩身产生最大的竖向位移;盾构从桩身中下部穿越时将引起桩身产生最大的附加轴力。桩身侧阻在隧道轴线附近呈“S”型,同时桩身轴力最大值也出现在隧道轴线附近。盾构导致桩身产生纵向和横向变形延伸至桥面高度的变形量相当可观。当盾构穿越高架桥梁基础时应该严格控制桩顶水平位移。     

砂井联合水泥土搅拌桩复合地基固结解析解

砂井联合水泥土桩复合地基是一种新型的复合地基加固技术,既可以加快软土地基固结时间,又可以增强软土地基的强度。针对该组合型复合地基的布桩特点,该类复合地基可以简化成以水泥土搅拌桩为中心的轴对称固结模型,并假定孔隙水沿径向渗流到砂井体内的流量等同于砂井体内排出的水量,考虑砂井的涂抹效应,推导出该类型下砂井联合水泥土搅拌桩复合地基固结方程。根据实际工程荷载多数单级施加和地基附加应力呈梯形分布的特点,得出了砂井联合水泥土桩复合地基固结解析解。通过对单级荷载情况下的复合地基固结解析解的退化,得出了瞬时施加荷载下的解析解。最后分别针对井径比、加荷历时、桩-土模量比、砂井渗透系数等影响因素,对复合地基固结性状进行了分析。该解答对提高此类复合地基的设计和计算水平有一定的理论指导意义。     

基于桩身应力测试的静压PHC管桩贯入机制

压桩过程中PHC管桩侧摩阻力与端阻力的分离是制约其贯入机制及承载力研究的瓶颈。通过桩身预埋准分布式FBG光纤传感器,对贯入成层土地基中5根足尺开口PHC管桩侧摩阻力及端阻力发展变化情况进行了监测。试验表明,准分布式光纤传感测试技术现场可操作性强,粗放施工环境下贯入阻力分离效果较为理想。成层土地基中压桩力曲线基本反映地层土性变化,桩端土层性状对压桩力影响较大。硬质土层界面处试桩压桩力平均增幅约为64.06%,端阻力受地层变化影响更为显著,平均增长幅度约为97.41%,侧摩阻力平均增长幅度约为17.92%;桩端位于非硬质土层试桩压桩力变化不明显。贯入过程中现场足尺试验桩身应力变化不同于室内模型试验,桩身上、下部侧摩阻力发挥的力学机制不同。受现场粗放施工条件及深度方向土层变化影响,贯入成层土地基中桩侧摩阻力临界深度现象不明显。     

考虑土拱效应的疏排桩支护基坑内力和变形分析

采用同济大学中型岩土离心机进行了2组疏排桩支护基坑的离心机模型试验,结合三维有限元数值分析探讨了采用规范方法计算疏排桩支护基坑桩身内力与变形的适宜性,并提出了考虑土拱效应的疏排桩支护基坑桩侧土压力的理论计算方法,最后建立了考虑土拱效应的疏排桩支护基坑桩身内力和变形的计算模型。研究结果表明：对于桩间距与桩径之比为2、3和8的疏排桩支护基坑,桩间土体无法形成土拱效应;对于桩间距与桩径之比为4～7的疏排桩支护基坑,桩间土拱效应明显;规范法计算得到桩身内力与变形结果要比离心机试验结果偏大,与规范方法相比,采用文中提出的计算方法计算疏排桩支护基坑桩身内力与变形更为合理。

Role of piles in mitigating the movement of pipes in soft grounds during embankment loading

Abstract

Pipes buried in soft ground can be damaged due to the vertical and lateral movement of the ground during the construction of the embankment. To investigate such a movement of the soft ground, full-scale tests using embankment piles and stabilizing piles were conducted for 70?days. A pile-supported embankment has been used to reduce the deformation of soft ground by transferring the embankment load through piles to the firm layer below the soft ground, whereas stabilizing piles have been employed to resist the lateral earth pressure that is induced in soft ground by embankment loads. The Coupling Area (CA), which was defined as the quantitative index to determine the resistance effect of both settlement and lateral flow of the soft ground when the embankment was reinforced, is adapted. The analysis results of the CA indicate that the piled embankment was more effective for preventing the damage to buried pipe installed near the embankment, while the stabilizing piles had almost the same effect as the piled embankment when the pipe was buried far away from the embankment.     

A new look at the phenomenon of offshore pile plugging

Abstract

Open‐pipe piles are widely used for offshore structures. During the initial stage of installation, soil enters the pile at a rate equal to the pile penetration. As penetration continues, the inner soil cylinder may develop sufficient frictional resistance to prevent further soil intrusion, causing the pile to become plugged. The open‐ended pile then assumes the penetration characteristics of a closed‐ended pile. The mode of pile penetration significantly alters the soil‐pile interaction during and after installation. This affects the ultimate static bearing capacity (mainly in granular materials), the time‐dependent pile capacity (in clays), and the dynamic behavior and analysis of the piles.

Following a summary demonstrating the effects of pile plugging, a review of the common view of offshore pile plugging is undertaken. The interpretation of plugging by referring to the average plug length has led to the erroneous conclusion that in most piles significant plugging action does not occur.

Establishment of an analogy between soil samplers and open‐ended piles enabled correct identification of plugging by referring to the incremental changes in plug length. Examination of case histories of plugging of offshore piles revealed that beyond a certain penetration depth‐to‐diameter ratio, most piles are plugged.     

厚层沉渣嵌岩桩承载性状研究

首先对嵌岩桩进行了现场钻孔抽芯试验和静力载荷试验,试验结果表明：当采用冲击成孔工法施工且桩侧存在弱胶结土层时,桩底沉渣厚度普遍较大,远厚于规范允许值;当荷载达一定值时,呈现突发性下沉且下沉量较大,主要与厚层沉渣导致端阻力未发挥作用有关。试验结果说明：当采用冲击成孔工法施工且桩侧存在弱胶结土层时,现有嵌岩桩设计方法同时考虑端阻和侧阻作用是不妥的,嵌岩桩单桩承载力宜仅按土层和嵌岩段侧阻力确定。进一步基于数值分析对嵌岩段摩阻力分布及变形等承载性状进行研究。在施加荷载一定条件下,嵌岩深度与基岩强度越大,下沉量越小,且厚层沉渣嵌岩桩沉降存在嵌岩深度效应。随着桩顶荷载增大,嵌岩深度与基岩强度差异导致的下沉量的差值增大。嵌岩段桩侧摩阻力沿深度呈马鞍型分布,嵌岩深度与基岩强度较小时,嵌岩段下部峰值比上部峰值大;嵌岩深度与基岩强度较大时,嵌岩段下部峰值则比上部峰值小。在桩顶荷载一定条件下,嵌岩深度越小,下沉量越大,越有利于侧摩阻力发挥,嵌岩段桩侧摩阻力越大。由于厚层沉渣存在,嵌岩段桩身轴力沿深度方向从桩顶荷载逐渐衰减为0,嵌岩深度越小,衰减速度越快。     

弧形间隔排桩-桩顶拱梁空间抗滑结构理论研究

为充分利用地形、地质结构和混凝土的材料特性,优化直线排桩的不利受力状态和提高其整体稳定性,提出了弧形间隔排桩-桩顶拱梁新型空间抗滑结构,即根据滑坡地形及地质条件弧形布设抗滑桩,桩顶设置连系梁,连系梁两端设置抗力桩,形成空间结构以抵抗滑坡推力。以抗滑桩与连系梁之间的作用力为冗力,分别建立了连系梁和抗滑桩的计算模型,并对连系梁的内力和抗滑桩的位移进行了理论分析,根据连系梁与抗滑桩连接处的位移协调条件,建立了力法典型方程求解冗力。最终得出了连系梁的弯矩、剪力和轴力以及抗滑桩的位移、内力理论计算公式。通过算例分析并与悬臂桩及直线排桩-桩顶连系梁抗滑结构比较,结果表明：空间抗滑结构中弧形连系梁的内力分布更加合理,弧形连系梁对抗滑桩的位移约束效果明显。
