Abstract:
Based on the Winkler model,the load transfer matrixes of single pile in elastic and elasto-plastic state in layered soil were presented to obtain the simplified nonlinear method for analysis of settlement and internal force of single pile.The sheltering effect between passive piles and soil was taken into account to modify the conventional interaction factor between two piles.The approximate approach with the concept of the interaction factor was employed to study the nonlinear behavior of pile groups with rigid cap and piled raft foundation.Because the nonhomogeneity of soil and nonlinear interaction between piles and soil was considered,the theoretical model agreed with the fact quite well.The calculated results was compared with those of the finite element and field tests,and the feasibility of the proposed model for the analysis of pile groups and piled raft foundation was proved.
Abstract:
An effective stress calculation formula for coal containing gas is proposed coupling with the swelling stress of gas adsorption in the effective stress principle for porous media.Considering the variation of the porosity and permeability of coal containing gas at differential deformation stages,a dynamic model for porosity and permeability is developed based on the previous research results.Furthermore,taking coal containing gas as a kind of isotropic elastoplastic material and taking into account the effect of gas adsorption,the stress and seepage equations are derived and,the solid-gas coupling model for coal containing gas is constructed,which is appropriate to describe the skeleton deformability of coal containing gas and the compressibility of gas under the solid-gas interaction condition.In addition,the numerical simulation model is built by using the finite element method,and the numerical solution of the model for a special loading case is given in term of the constraint conditions and corresponding parameters.The research results maybe have a meaning for further enriching and improving solid-gas coupling theories for coal containing gas.

To apply the safety factor of three-dimensional slope stability into the design of gravity dams,the reliability of deep slide was studied.The reliability index was calculated using the Rosenbleuth method,where the safety factor was obtained by use of the three-dimensional limit analysis method of slope stability.It was indicated that the three-dimensional slope stability could be explained by the failure probability through the reliability index.
Abstract:
True triaxial tests on specimens of gravel were performed,in which σ3 was invariable,and σ1,σ2 were loaded at the same time in a certain proportion b [=(σ2-σ3)/(σ1-σ3)].The influences of the intermediate principal stress on three principal strains and strength were studied separately.Mohr-Coulomb Criterion,Lade-Duncan Criterion,Matsuoka-Nakai Criterion and Fang Kai-ze Criterion were compared with the true triaxial test results of gravel.It was found that the relationships between friction angle and b reflected by Matsuoka-Nakai Criterion and Fang Kai-ze Criterion were different from those of the experimental results,and the laws reflected by Lade-Duncan Criterion were close to those of the experimental results,while it overrated the influence of b on the friction angle.Hence a criterion was proposed,and the relationship between the friction angle and b was deduced and verified using several true triaxial test results.It was indicated that the proposed criterion could reflect the relationship between the friction angle and b more accurately than Lade-Duncan Criterion and Matsuoka-Nakai Criterion.
Abstract:
A series of physical simulation experiments for pile groups with varying rigidity and those with uniformly distributed piles under static axial load were done,and the test results were analyzed and compared.It was indicated that for the displacement distribution type of the pile group with varying rigidity the displacement of the side piles was larger than that of middle piles,this was quite the contrary of uniformly distributed piles.The total settlement increased slightly and differential settlement decreased markedly.Increasing the length of middle pile could increase the bearing capacity both of the pile groups and soils under the pile cap for varying rigidity pile groups,indicating that the bearing capacity of the side piles was latent in uniformly distributed piles.The shaft friction developed along the lower part to the middle of the pile in pile groups,different from that of single pile.The less the pile spacing,the more obvious this trend.

Abstract:
The consolidation in saturated orthogonal anisotropic soil among group-piles was studied.Considering the initial distribution and the boundary conditions of excess pore water pressure caused by group-piles,the space consolidation model was established and the progression solutions could be found by using methods of mathematical physics in enclosed field.The solutions could give the results of consolidation degree and pore-water pressure at any point at any time.When the initial distribution of pore pressure was constant and the soil was isotropic,the reasonableness of the solutions was proved by the progression solutions,which could be degenerated to Terzaghi’s one-dimensional consolidation solutions.Finally,practical engineering case was presented to illustrate the results and laws of the soil consolidation.
Abstract:
Rock was a kind of typical inhomogeneous brittle material abundant in various deficiencies such as microcracks,gaps and joints and would generate a large quantity of acoustic emission signals during damage process under loading.Application of locating techniques with acoustic emission to monitoring rock damage was a good method to study 3D spatial evolutional pattern of microcrack initiation,propagation,expansion and breakthrough during rock failure process.The Geiger locating algorithm was used to verify the locating precision of acoustic emission generated during rock failure.It was shown that the locating precision of acoustic emission would be much better if the Geiger locating algorithm was applied.The rock acoustic emission system was accurate and could monitor the real-time microcrack propagation.The process of the acoustic emission and rock damage were consistent and the locating results could reflect the process of initial,propagation and breakthrough of microcracks accurately.The locating results of the intact specimens and the samples with pre-cracks were in acordance with the real failure pattern of rock,indicating that it was a good tool to study the rock failure mechanism.

With the process of accelerative industrialization in China,the polluted foundation soil by industrial organizations had become serious environmental geotechnical problems.The properties of foundation soil have been changed by acid and alkali pollution.Soil specimens polluted by acid and alkali of 4 different concentration were artificially prepared.The compressible and deformable properties of polluted soil were studied.It was concluded that the rebound index,coefficient of compressibility and pre-consolidation pressure of polluted soil increased with the increase of the concentration,and the variation of the compression coefficient of soil polluted by acid was greater than that by alkali.All kinds of factors influencing the compressibility of polluted soil were analyzed,including grain-size distribution,plasticity index,moisture content and void ratio.The influence of variation of the compressibility of soil before and after pollution on the evaluation of the polluted foundation soil was studied.
Abstract:
In engineering projects of landfills,geomembranes were commonly used to isolate waste from the surrounding ground and groundwater in order to minimize the potential groundwater contamination.Subsequent construction of a landfill included the placement of waste layers and soil covers at various heights over the liners.Substantial down-slope shear stresses might be resulted in the geomembranes,leading to the development of significant geomembrane tension which was necessary to be studied so as to ensure the safe use.The relationship between shear stress and displacement for interface between the geomembranes and the clay was divided into three states: elastic,softening and residual strength.Three-state elasto-plastic model was presented to simulate the shear deformation property for the interface,and the governing differential equations of three states were obtained.Because the demarcation points among the three states were unknown,the iterative computation method should be used to compute the tension of geomembranes.Finally,some important factors,including the influence of landfill height and slope gradient on the tension of geomembranes,were studied.
Abstract:
Virtual multidimensional internal bonds(VMIB) was a multiscale mechanical model based on the Virtual Internal bond(VIB) theory.From the view of VIB and VMIB,the microstructures of intact materials and cracked materials were consistent in that both the two materials consisted of network constructed by the randomized materials particles and virtual internal bonds in micro scale.For the cracked materials,the distance of material particles at the pre-existing crack was so large that the interaction(bond stiffness) between particles becomes negligible in micro scale,leading to the macro crack.To simulate the pre-existing crack,an initial deformation was assigned to the aggregate of material particles at the pre-existing crack.The assigned initial deformation was large enough to make interaction between material particles negligible,so as to represent the behavior of the pre-existing crack.By use of this method,the effect of the pre-existing crack was incorporated into the constitutive relation of materials,hence,the cracked materials could be described by the uniform constitutive relationship,which made the present method free of the special treatment of cracks on the element discretization level as the conventional continuum mechanics method did.Moreover,the VMIB was discrete at the constitutive level and the failure criterion had been embedded into the constitutive relation by the bond evolution function,so it was free of the problem of remeshing and choice of external fracture criterion when the failure process was simulated.By simulating the fracture process of a square plate containing two parallel pre-existing cracks,the present method is indicated to be capable of representing the fracture propagation and the failure process of multi-cracked rock materials.
Abstract:
By use of the testing method of stress paths,the behavior of construction of artificial freezing derrick foundation was simulated.It was shown by the results of triaxial creep experiments that the frozen soil was obviously dilatancty,and its volume strain should not be neglected.To fully reflect the creep deformation laws of frozen soil under complex stress paths,a nonlinear rheological constitutive model of frozen soil was put forward by using the basic elements.And the model was embedded in FEPG finite element program on the basis of the secondary developing technique for FEM.It was shown by the results of numerical simulation for field measurement that the deformation properties of dilatancy and volume strain of frozen soil could be reflected by the nonlinear rheological constitutive model very well,and it agreed well with the field measurement data,which could be used as references for the calculation and construction of frozen projects.

According to the characteristics of time-dependent damage and the threshold of accelerating damage,an evolvement equation of creep damage based on non-linear visco-elasto-plastic rheological model was established.Its correctness was validated by the tests on shear rheological results of slates of large and long water transfer tunnel at Jingping Hydropower Ⅱ.It was shown that the non-linear rheological damage model could not only reflect the whole rheology process of rock,but also describe efficiently the primary,stationary and tertiary rheological damages for slates under the conditions of different stresses.
Abstract:
Experimental study on the overconsolidated clay under the cyclic principal stress rotation(CPSR) was performed.Emphasis was put on the influence of different overconsolidation conditions on the characteristics of samples during CPSR.It was found that with the increase of the over consolidation ratio,the equivalent dynamic stiffness and dynamic strength of samples during CPSR increased obviously,while these characteristics were independent of the back pressure control condition during overconsolidation.But whether or not the back pressure was kept constant greatly influenced the generation and level of development of negative pore pressure during the following CPSR stage.

In order to discuss process and mechanism of rock-burst in the surrounding rock of horseshoe section caverns,a physical model,800 mm long and 800 mm wide and 200 mm thick with a horseshoe section cavern,was produced with hard brittle physical model materials from orthogonal experiments by the generalized indexes of uniaxial compressive strength(σc),brittleness coefficient(K) and exponential of strike energy(WB).The physical model was tested in the large triaxial model-test machine of geotechnical engineering under the high stress and plane strain condition.It was shown that a rock-burst which was paroxysmal in hard and brittle surrounding rock of horseshoe section cavern occurred during a transitory time in a limited loading-zone under the high stress condition when crack appeared,and that a relatively steady period appeared during relatively long time and a relatively broad loading-zone appeared after the rock-burst,following stress adjusting.The results of physical simulation were basically consistent with the actual engineering situation.

Aiming at the features of Wuhan Yangtze River Tunnel,that is,a tunnel under high water pressure and across multi-layered strata with widely different hardness,model tests on segment lining structure with different water and earth pressures under the layered strata and single stratum were performed by jointly applying the simulation facilities of shield tunnel-ground complex and rotary water pressure devices.The effect of mechanical characteristics of segment lining structure for shield tunnels under multi-layered strata was analyzed.It was shown that: with the increase of water pressure,the average axial force of segment lining structure increased evidently,and the maximum bending moment increased slightly or did not changed basically;the bending moment of segment lining in the hard rock stratum obviously decreased;the influence on the maximum internal force of segment lining caused by the hard rock in certain region was slight.These results could provide valuable preference to the design of segment lining structure for Wuhan Yangtze River Tunnel.
Abstract:
The dimensional effect of temperature field in permafrost embankment was a general term for size effect of embankment and structural effect of pavement.Based on the equivalent parameter model of heat-transfer considering phase change of ice and water and moisture transfer,the size effect of embankment with different heights,widths and side slope angles and the structural effect of asphalt pavement,cement concrete pavement and gravel pavement were simulated to analyze variation of embankment temperature field in permafrost regions on the plateau.It was shown that the permafrost was sensitive to dimensional effect of the highway on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the variation of temperature field of embankment was directly influenced by the embankment size.The heat absorption of frozen foundation was negatively dependent on embankment height and side slope,but positively dependent on the embankment width.The influence of heat absorption of asphat parement on the temperature field was about 1.7 times that of gravel parement.According to the research,it could be concluded that the wide embankment and thermal effect of asphalt pavement were the two key factors for the variation of temperature field of frozen soil embankmentcompared with other projects.Therefore,it was necessary to emphasize the engineering stabilization and security problems from the dimensional effect of highway on permafrost foundation in expressway construction on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the future.
Abstract:
Through the analysis on monitoring data of the deep foundation pit for east-section of Qiutao Road station of Hangzhou Metro,such as horizontal displacement of retaining piles,axial force of steel struts,surface settlements and underground water levels,some valuable conclusions were drawn.It was shown that the deformation characteristics of the retaining structures were related to the horizontal displacement of the retaining piles which was an important criterion for the safety condition of retaining structures.The lateral deformation of the retaining piles was mainly induced by excavation,and was related to exposed time of wall face after excavation.The axial force of the steel struts increased with the increase of the excavation depth,and its value varied with the excavation modes and velocities,air temperatures and dismantlement of the underlying struts.The distributions of the surface settlements in the east of the foundation pit were a parabolic,while those in the south of the foundation pit were triangular.The variation of the underground water levels in the outside of the foundation pit could reflect the watertight effect of the retaining structures.

According to the comprehensive tests on the rising height of capillary water for twelve kinds of different coarse grained soil and fine grained soil by use of the method of standpipe,the relationship between the rising height of capillary water and time was obtained,and the influencing factors and rules were analyzed.The relationship between the rising height of capillary water of coarse grained soil and time could be drawn by the double-unit regression equation in the logarithmic coordinate.The parameters were related with composition of grain and degree of compaction.The data of the steady rising height of capillary water were obtained,and the regression equation of coarse grained soil on steady height and physical indexes(effective grain d10 and porosity n) was found.Compared with Hazen’s and other expressions that could estimate the steady height of capillary water of coarse grained soil,the proposed method was satisfactory,and the defects of the latter were pointed out.
