The hyperbola model, a nonlinear load transfer function, was introduced to establish the basic differential equation with load transfer method. Assumed that the displacement of pile shaft was the high order power series of buried depth, through merging the same orthometric items and arranging the relevant coefficients, the solution which could take the nonlinear pile-soil interaction and stratum properties of soil into account was solved by power series. On the basis of the solution, by determining the load transfer depth with criterion of settlement on pile tip, the method by making boundary conditions compatible was advised to solve the load-settlement curve of pile. The relevant flow chart and mathematic expressions of boundary conditions were also listed. Lastly, the load transfer methods based on both two-broken-line model and hyperbola model were applied to analyzing a real project. The related coefficients of fitting curves by hyperbola were not less than 0.96, which shows that the hyperbola model is truthfulness, and is propitious to avoid personal error. The calculating value of load-settlement curve agrees well with the measured one, which indicates that it can be applied in engineering practice and making the theory that limits the design bearing capacity by settlement on pile top comes true.展开更多

For successful concrete track construction and operation in earthwork areas, the residual settlement should be reasonably controlled by using an appro- priate method. The maintenance for excessive settlement is very difficult on the operating line because the maintenance method is very restrictive. The objective of this study is to introduce pressurized rapid-hardening cement grouting (PRCG) method to restore a subsided concrete track without any adverse effects on train operation. This method involves the use of special types of materials (very quick hardening and middle-hardening mortar), compact grouting equipment, and a special construction process. In spite of the extremely restrictive environment, this method has been demonstrated to be very effective and reasonable through laboratory and field tests.展开更多
