To advance this technique, primarily for the design of plum blossom piles, it is important to investigate the skin friction behavior of plum blossom pile foundations precluding any straightforward constitutive model. In this work, an analytic method dependent on the cross-sectional geometry and the vertical shearing effects is proposed by means of equilibrium analysis to calculate the effective vertical stress in the surrounding soil, the skin friction/negative skin friction, and the axial force/dragload of a plum blossom pile. Additionally, the curves of skin friction of piles are investigated with the same conditions. The results show that the curves of skin friction of piles deduced according to the developed analytic method agree well with the FEM results and related literature solution, which validates the solution. The axial force of the pile decreases with the increase of the shear action coefficient in the buried depth direction under the vertical concentrated load when considering the vertical shearing effects on the pile-soil interfaces.展开更多

Leveraging a dataset comprising open-ended pipe piles with varying geometrical and geotechnical properties, this research employs shallow neural network(SNN) and deep neural network(DNN) models to predict plugging conditions for both driven and pressed installation types. This paper underscores the importance of key parameters such as the settlement value,applied load, installation type, and soil configuration(loose, medium, and dense) in accurately predicting pile settlement. These findings offer valuable insights for optimizing pile design and construction in geotechnical engineering,addressing a longstanding challenge in the field. The study demonstrates the potential of the SNN and DNN models in precisely identifying plugging conditions before pile driving, with the SNN achieving R2 values ranging from0.444 to 0.711 and RMSPE values ranging from 24.621% to 48.663%, whereas the DNN exhibits superior performance, with R2 values ranging from 0.815 to 0.942 and RMSPE values ranging from 4.419% to 10.325%. These results have significant implications for enhancing construction practices and reducing uncertainties associated with pile foundation projects in addition to leveraging artificial intelligence tools to avoid long experimental procedures.展开更多

Specifically,the failure of stabilizing piles due to groundwater migration and freeze–thaw(FT) cycles is a significant factor causing slope failure. This study aims to investigate the transmedia seepage characteristics at slope–concrete stabilizing pile interface systems by using silty clay and concrete with varying microstructure characteristics under FT cycles. To this end, a self-developed indoor test device for transmedia water migration, combined with a macro-meso-micro multiscale testing approach, was used to analyze the laws and mechanisms of transmedia seepage at the interface systems. The effect of the medium's microstructure characteristics on the transmedia seepage behavior at the interface systems under FT cycles was also assessed. Results indicated that the transmedia water migration exhibited particularity due to the migration of soil particles and the low permeability characteristics of concrete. The water content in the media increased significantly within the range of 1/3–2/3 of the height from the interface for soil and within 5 mm from the interface for concrete.FT cycles promoted the increase and penetration of cracks within the medium, enhancing the permeability of the slope-concrete stabilizing pile interface systems.With the increase in FT cycles, the porosity inside the medium first decreased and then increased, and the porosity reached the minimum after 25 FT cycles and the maximum after 75 FT cycles, and the water content of the medium after water migration was positively correlated with the porosity. FT cycles also significantly influenced the temporal variation characteristics of soil moisture and the migration path of water in concrete. The study results could serve as a reference for related research on slope stability assessment.展开更多

In this study, physical model experiments under unidirectional flow, bidirectional flow, and wave-current interactions with different flow directions around the pile group foundation were first conducted to investigate the development of scour around the pile group foundation.Additionally, a three-dimensional scour numerical model was established via the open-source software REEF3D to simulate the flow field and scour around the prototype-scale foundation. The impact of flow on scour was discussed.Under unidirectional flow, scour equilibrium was reached more quickly, with the maximum scour depth reaching approximately 1.2 times the pile diameter and the extent of the scour hole spanning about 4.9 times the pile diameter.Compared with those under unidirectional flow, the scour depths under combinations of currents and waves, as well as bidirectional flow, were slightly smaller. However, the morphology of scour holes was more uniform and symmetrical. The numerical simulation results show good agreement with the experimental data, demonstrating the impact of varying flow directions on the velocity distribution around the foundation, the morphology of scour holes, and the location of the maximum scour depth.展开更多

文摘The behavior of rigid piles in sandy soils under one-way cyclic oblique tensile loading represents a critical design consideration for floating renewable devices.These piles,when moored with catenary or taut moorings,experience one-way cyclic tensile loads at inclinations ranging from 0°(horizontal)to 90°(vertical).However,the combined effects of cyclic loading and load inclination remain inadequately understood.This study presents findings from centrifuge tests conducted on rough rigid piles installed in dense sand samples.The results demonstrate that load inclinations significantly influence both cyclic response and ultimate capacity of the piles.Based on the observed cyclic response characteristics,the vertical cyclic load amplitude should not exceed 25%of the ultimate bearing capacity to maintain pile stability.A power expression(with exponent m values ranging from 0.055 to 0.065)is proposed for predicting cumulative pile displacement under unidirectional cyclic loading at inclinations from 0°to 60°.The cyclic response exhibits reduced sensitivity to horizontal cyclic load magnitude,with m-value increasing from 0.06 to 0.14 as load magnitude increases from 0.3 to 0.9.For piles maintaining stability under oblique cyclic loading,the average normalized secant stiffness exceeds 1 and increases with decreasing inclination,indicating enhanced pile stiffness under cyclic loading.For load inclinations below 30°,pile stiffness can be determined using logarithmic function.

文摘Understanding the factors triggering slope failure is essential to ensure the safety of buildings and transportation infrastructure on slopes. Specifically,the failure of stabilizing piles due to groundwater migration and freeze–thaw(FT) cycles is a significant factor causing slope failure. This study aims to investigate the transmedia seepage characteristics at slope–concrete stabilizing pile interface systems by using silty clay and concrete with varying microstructure characteristics under FT cycles. To this end, a self-developed indoor test device for transmedia water migration, combined with a macro-meso-micro multiscale testing approach, was used to analyze the laws and mechanisms of transmedia seepage at the interface systems. The effect of the medium's microstructure characteristics on the transmedia seepage behavior at the interface systems under FT cycles was also assessed. Results indicated that the transmedia water migration exhibited particularity due to the migration of soil particles and the low permeability characteristics of concrete. The water content in the media increased significantly within the range of 1/3–2/3 of the height from the interface for soil and within 5 mm from the interface for concrete.FT cycles promoted the increase and penetration of cracks within the medium, enhancing the permeability of the slope-concrete stabilizing pile interface systems.With the increase in FT cycles, the porosity inside the medium first decreased and then increased, and the porosity reached the minimum after 25 FT cycles and the maximum after 75 FT cycles, and the water content of the medium after water migration was positively correlated with the porosity. FT cycles also significantly influenced the temporal variation characteristics of soil moisture and the migration path of water in concrete. The study results could serve as a reference for related research on slope stability assessment.

文摘Precast driven piles are extensively used for infrastructure on soft soils,but the buildup of excess pore water pressure associated with pile driving is a challenging issue.The process of soil consolidation could take several months.Measures are sought to shorten the drainage path in the ground,and permeable pipe pile is a concept that involves drainage channels at the peak pore pressure locations around the pile circumference.Centrifuge tests were conducted to understand the responses of permeable pipe pile treated ground,experiencing the whole pile driving,soil consolidating,and axially loading process.Results show that the dissipation rate of pore pressures can be improved,especially at a greater depth or at a shorter distance from the pile,since the local hydraulic gradient was higher.Less significant buildup of pore pressures can be anticipated with the use of permeable pipe pile.For this,the bearing capacity of composite foundation with permeable pipe pile can be increased by over 36.9%,compared to the case with normal pipe pile at a specific time period.All these demonstrate the ability of permeable pipe pile in accelerating the consolidation process,mobilizing the bearing capacity of treated ground at an early stage,and minimizing the set-up effect.

文摘To study the dynamic response rules of pile foundations of mega-bridges over faults in strong seismic areas,a finite element model of the pile foundation-soil-fault interaction of the Haiwen Bridge is established.The 0.2-0.6 g peak acceleration of the 5010 seismic waves is input to study the effect of the seismic wave of different intensities and the distance changes between the fault and the pile foundation on the dynamic response of the pile body.The results show that the soil layer covering the bedrock amplifies the peak pile acceleration,and the amplifying effect decreases with increasing seismic wave intensity.However,bedrock has less of an effect on peak acceleration.The relative pile displacement shows the mechanical properties of elastic long piles.The pile foundation generates a large bending moment at the bedrock face and the upper soil layer interface,and a large shear force at the pile top and the soft-hard soil body interface.The relative displacement,bending,and shear bearing characteristics of the pile foundations on the upper and lower plates of the fault are significantly different.The deformation characteristics are affected by faults in a region ten times the pile diameter.Analysis of the dynamic p-y curves shows that the soil resistance on the pile side of the lower plate at the same depth is greater than that of the upper plate.Sensitivity of the dynamic response of pile foundations on either side of the fault to the effects of seismic intensity and distance between the pile foundation and the fault:distance l seismic intensity q.

文摘The torsional low strain integrity test(TLSIT),known for its advantages such as a smaller detection blind zone,improved identification of shallowly buried defects,stable phase velocity for signal interpretation,and better adaptability for existing pile testing.However,it lacks a comprehensive understanding of the authentic three-dimensional(3D)strain wave propagation mechanism,particularly wave reflection and transmission at defects.To address this gap,a novel 3D theoretical framework is introduced in this context to model the authentic 3D wave propagation during the TLSIT.The proposed approach is validated by comparing its results with those obtained from 3D finite element method(FEM)simulations and simplified 1D(one-dimensional)and 3D analytical solutions.Additionally,a parametric study is conducted to enhance insights into the formation mechanism of high-frequency interference observed during the TLSIT.Finally,a defect identification study is performed to provide guidance for interpreting the wave spectrum in terms of defect characteristics.

文摘During the construction of bank slopes involving pile driving,ensuring slope stability is crucial.This requires the design of appropriate support systems and a thorough evaluation of the failure mechanisms of pile structures under dynamic loading conditions.Based on the Huarong Coal Wharf project,various support schemes are analyzed using numerical simulation methods to calculate and compare slope stability coefficients.The optimal scheme is then identified.Under the selected support scheme,a numerical model of double-row suspended steel sheet piles is developed to investigate the dynamic response of the pile structures under pile driving loads.A time-history analysis is performed to assess the slope’s dynamic stability.The results show that the maximum displacements of the upper and lower steel sheet pile rows are 2.51 and 3.14 cm,respectively.The maximum principal stresses remain below 20 MPa in both rows,while the maximum von Mises stresses are 20.85 MPa for the upper row and 25.40 MPa for the lower row.The dominant frequencies of the steel sheet pile structures fall between 30 and 35 Hz,with a frequency bandwidth ranging from 0 to 500 Hz.The stability coefficient of the pile structures varies over time during the pile driving process,ultimately reaching a value of 1.26—exceeding the required safety threshold.This research provides practical guidance for designing support systems in wharf piling projects and offers a reliable basis for evaluating the safety performance of steel sheet piles in bank slopes.

文摘Under the combination of currents and waves, seabed scour occurs around offshore wind turbine foundations, which affects the stability and safe operation of offshore wind turbines. In this study, physical model experiments under unidirectional flow, bidirectional flow, and wave-current interactions with different flow directions around the pile group foundation were first conducted to investigate the development of scour around the pile group foundation.Additionally, a three-dimensional scour numerical model was established via the open-source software REEF3D to simulate the flow field and scour around the prototype-scale foundation. The impact of flow on scour was discussed.Under unidirectional flow, scour equilibrium was reached more quickly, with the maximum scour depth reaching approximately 1.2 times the pile diameter and the extent of the scour hole spanning about 4.9 times the pile diameter.Compared with those under unidirectional flow, the scour depths under combinations of currents and waves, as well as bidirectional flow, were slightly smaller. However, the morphology of scour holes was more uniform and symmetrical. The numerical simulation results show good agreement with the experimental data, demonstrating the impact of varying flow directions on the velocity distribution around the foundation, the morphology of scour holes, and the location of the maximum scour depth.
文摘The M-shaped multi-row pile foundation retaining structure represents an enhanced version of conventional multi-row anti-sliding support systems.To date,the implementation of M-shaped pile configurations in foundation pit excavations has not been extensively investigated,with particularly scant research focusing on their load-bearing mechanisms and stress redistribution characteristics.Furthermore,numerical modeling methodologies for such geometrically optimized pile networks remain underdeveloped compared to practical engineering applications,creating a notable research-practice gap in geotechnical engineering.A comparative finite element analysis was systematically conducted using ABAQUS software to establish three distinct excavation support configurations:single-row cantilever retaining structures,three-row cantilever configurations,and M-shaped multi-row pile foundation systems.Subsequent numerical simulations enabled quantitative comparisons of critical performance indicators,including pile stress distribution patterns,lateral displacement profiles,and bending moment diagrams across different structural typologies.The parametric investigation revealed characteristic mechanical responses associated with each configuration,establishing corresponding mechanical principles governing the interaction between pile topology and soil-structure behavior towers.The findings of this study provide critical references for the design optimization of M-shaped multi-row pile foundation retaining systems.

文摘Spiral pile foundations,as a promising type of foundation,are of significant importance for the development of offshore wind energy,particularly as it moves toward deeper waters.This study conducted a physical experiment on a three-spiral-pile jacket foundation under deep-buried sandy soil conditions.During the experiment,horizontal displacement was applied to the structure to thoroughly investigate the bearing characteristics of the three-spiral-pile jacket foundation.This study also focused on analyzing the bearing mechanisms of conventional piles compared with spiral piles with different numbers of blades.Three different working conditions were set up and compared,and key data,such as the horizontal bearing capacity,pile shaft axial force,and spiral blade soil pressure,were measured and analyzed.The results show the distinct impacts of the spiral blades on the compressed and tensioned sides of the foundation.Specifically,on the compressed side,the spiral blades effectively enhance the restraint of the soil on the pile foundation,whereas on the tensioned side,an excessive number of spiral blades can negatively affect the structural tensile performance to some extent.This study also emphasizes that the addition of blades to the side of a single pile is the most effective method for increasing the bearing capacity of the foundation.This research aims to provide design insights into improving the bearing capacity of the foundation.

文摘Bridge pier failures from granular flow impacts are common.Installing defense piles upstream is an effective mitigation strategy,yet their protective mechanisms and standardized design guidelines are unclear.This study employed 3D discrete element method to analyze the influence of defense pile size and placement on its performance across 219 scenarios,providing a detailed examination of their protective mechanisms.Results show that optimizing these factors can reduce the maximum impact force on bridge piers by up to 94%.In terms of size,a critical height threshold is identified,beyond which increasing pile height does not enhance protection.This threshold depends on the movement height of granular particles at the slope base.Protection effectiveness varies with pile size:when H≤0.05 h(H is the height of defense piles,h is the height of bridge),protection marginally improves with increasing height and diameter;for 0.05 h<H<0.15 h,protection strongly correlates with both parameters;for H≥0.15 h,diameter becomes the dominant factor.In terms of placement,an optimal longitudinal distance exists between the defense pile and the bridge pier.The larger the diameter,the greater the optimal longitudinal distance.However,the transverse distance is inversely related to protection effectiveness.Mechanistic analysis shows that defense piles are more effective at redirecting particles to prevent direct collisions with the pier(contributing 100%impact energy reduction before the non-dimensional travel time t*=7.01 and 63%–100%afterward)than at reducing particle velocity.This study provides insights into the protective mechanisms of defense piles and informs strategies for optimizing bridge pier protection in granular flow-prone regions.

文摘The biocemented coral sand pile composite foundation represents an innovative foundation improvement technology,utilizing Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation(MICP)to consolidate a specific volume of coral sand within the foundation into piles with defined strength,thereby enabling them to collaboratively bear external loads with the surrounding unconsolidated coral sand.In this study,a series of shaking table model tests were conducted to explore the dynamic response of the biocemented coral sand pile composite foundation under varying seismic wave types and peak accelerations.The surface macroscopic phenomena,excess pore water pressure ratio,acceleration response,and vertical settlement were measured and analysed in detail.Test results show that seismic wave types play a decisive role in the macroscopic surface phenomena and the response of the excess pore water pressure ratio.The cumulative settlement of the upper structure under the action of Taft waves was about 1.5 times that of El Centro waves and Kobe waves.The most pronounced liquefaction phenomena were recorded under the Taft wave,followed by the El Centro wave,and subsequently the Kobe wave.An observed positive correlation was established between the liquefaction phenomenon and the Aristotelian in-tensity of the seismic waves.However,variations in seismic wave types exerted minimal influence on the ac-celeration amplification factor of the coral sand foundation.Analysis of the acceleration amplification factor revealed a triphasic pattern-initially increasing,subsequently decreasing,and finally increasing again-as burial depth increased,in relation to the peak value of the input acceleration.This study confirms that the biocemented coral sand pile composite foundation can effectively enhance the liquefaction resistance of coral sand foundations..

文摘With the increasing construction of port facilities,cross-sea bridges,and offshore engineering projects,uplift piles embedded in marine sedimentary soft soil are becoming increasingly necessary.The load-displacement curve of uplift piles is crucial for evaluating their uplift bearing characteristics,which facilitates the risk evaluation,design,and construction of large infrastructural supports.In this study,a load-displacement curve model based on piezocone penetration test(CPTU)data is proposed via the load transfer method.Experimental tests are conducted to analyze the uplift bearing characteristics and establish a correlation between the proposed model and CPTU data.The results of the proposed load-displacement curve are compared with the results from numerical simulations and those calculated by previous methods.The results show that the proposed curves appropriately evaluated the uplift bearing characteristics and improved the accuracy in comparison with previous methods.

文摘A control strategy of repetitive control without inductorance decoupling was proposed to address the problem of high total harmonic distortion(THD)rate of the network-side current caused by the reduced stability of the rectifier module of the DC charging pile under weak grid as well as the dead zone and nonlinearity of switching devices during charging.Firstly,the parallel repetitive control was constructed in the inner current loop,and the proportional-integral(PI)+repetitive controller based on parallel structure was designed.For system compensation,a second-order low-pass filter was selected to correct the system,and the network-side current harmonics were actively suppressed without increasing the filtering device,which effectively improves the quality of grid-connected current.Secondly,based on the synthetic vector method,the controller parameters were designed to realize the elimination of main pole by establishing two synchronous rotation coordinate system vector differential equations,so as to realize the inductanceless decoupling to cope with the influence of network-side inductance fluctuation on the stability of the control system under weak grid.By theoretical analysis and simulation,the proposed control strategy was embedded into the self-developed digital signal processor for the rectifier module of DC charging pile,simulated dynamic and steady-state operation experiments were conducted,and comparative analysis was performed to prove the feasibility of the proposed control strategy.
