Numerical investigation of pile installation effects in sand using material point method     

《Computers and Geotechnics》2016

The installation of displacement piles in sand leads to severe changes in the stress state, density and soil properties around the pile tip and shaft, and therefore has a significant influence on the pile bearing capacity. Most current numerical methods predicting pile capacity do not take installation effects into account, as large deformations can lead to mesh distortion and non-converging solutions. In this study, the material point method (MPM) is applied to simulate the pile installation process and subsequent static pile loading tests. MPM is an extension of the finite element method (FEM), which is capable of modelling large deformations and soil-structure interactions. This study utilizes the moving mesh algorithm where a redefined computational mesh is applied in the convective phase. This allows a fine mesh to be maintained around the pile tip during the installation process and improves the accuracy of the numerical scheme, especially for contact formulation. For the analyses a hypoplastic constitutive model for sand is used, which takes into account density and stress dependent behaviour. The model performs well in situations with significant stress level changes because it accounts for very high stresses at the pile tip. Numerical results agree with centrifuge experiments at a gravitational level of 40 g. This analysis confirms the importance of pile installation effects in numerical simulations, as well as the proposed numerical approach’s ability to simulate installation and static load tests of jacked displacement piles.  相似文献   

A qualitative Natech damage scale for the impact of floods on selected industrial facilities   总被引：4，自引：2，他引：2  

Elisabeth Krausmann  Fesil Mushtaq 《Natural Hazards》2008,46(2):179-197

There is increasing evidence that natural disasters can trigger technological accidents and damage. These so-called Natech accidents can pose a significant risk to regions that are unprepared for responding to them. The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre has recognised the risk associated with Natech events and has started systematic research into Natechs and their underlying dynamics. This work investigates the risk associated with the flooding of industrial installations through an analysis of past case histories and using expert judgement. The potential impact of three levels of flood severity on selected industrial facilities storing and/or processing (eco-)toxic, flammable or explosive materials is analysed qualitatively and a scale is developed that links the flood intensity to the level of potential damage. Our analysis indicates that natural disasters have the potential for triggering hazmat releases and other types of technological accidents. Hence, natural disasters should be considered as separate accident-triggering events in the planning, design and operating stages of industrial facilities that process or store hazardous substances. Our work revealed a lack of detailed information on the occurrence of Natech events which indicates not necessarily a scarcity of Natechs but rather a lack of standardised reporting and record keeping.  相似文献

Hydrodynamic Interactions of Three Barges in Close Proximity in A Floatover Installation   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

许鑫  李欣  杨建民  肖龙飞 《海洋工程》2016,(3):343-358

The hydrodynamics of side-by-side barges are much more complex than those of a single barge in waves because of wave shielding, viscous effects and water resonance in the gap. In the present study, hydrodynamic coefficients in the frequency domain were calculated for both the system of multiple bodies and the isolated body using both low-order and higher-order boundary-element methods with different element numbers. In these calculations, the damping-lid method was used to modify the free-surface boundary conditions in the gap and to make the hydrodynamic results more reasonable. Then far-field, mid-field and near-field methods were used to calculate wave-drift forces for both the multi-body system and the isolated body. The results show that the higher-order method has faster convergence speed than the low-order method for the multi-body case. Comparison of different methods of computing drift force showed that mid-field and far-field methods have better convergence than the near-field method. In addition, corresponding model tests were performed in the Deepwater Offshore Basin at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Comparison between numerical and experimental results showed good agreement.  相似文献

Extending the strain path method analogy for modelling penetrometer installation     

D. R. Gill  B. M. Lehane 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2000,24(5):477-489

The Strain Path Method (SPM) is an approximate framework for simulating the disturbance caused by piles or penetrometers in soil. The key conceptual assumption of the SPM is that the deformation and strain fields caused during these penetration processes are strongly kinematically constrained (especially during undrained penetration of clays) and can be estimated independently from the actual constitutive properties of the surrounding soil. Previous applications of SPM have estimated strain fields for a variety of penetrometer geometries using velocity fields of ideal inviscid fluids. This paper refines the strain field for penetrometers with 60° conical tips using numerically computed velocity fields in viscous fluids with a variety of boundary conditions imposed on the penetrometer shaft. Following a parametric study, a set of flow conditions is selected which provides a best fit between computed soil deformations and physical displacement measurements made in three separate experiments. The approach is simple and rapid and, while highlighting some of the inaccuracies associated with the existing SPM solution, may also be used for comparative purposes to assist the development of other approaches to the deep penetration problem.

安装误差对半潜漂浮式风机悬链线系泊系统性能的影响     

杜宇  王凯  初岳峰 《海洋工程》2023,41(4):49-58

由于浅水深条件下悬链线系泊系统的性能对系泊缆长度和几何形状更为敏感,悬链线系泊系统的安装误差对其性能的影响较深水条件下的更为显著。因此首先对适用于半潜漂浮式风机的悬链线系泊系统施工进行研究,分别确定了锚安装位置误差、系泊缆预铺误差和系泊缆与漂浮式基础回接误差的来源,并根据施工条件给出了误差值。之后,以浮体动力学仿真作为手段,对系泊缆系统施工误差对其性能的影响进行基于时域仿真的量化研究。研究表明,锚安装位置误差对系泊系统性能影响不大,但系泊缆预铺和回接的误差对系泊系统性能的影响较大。系泊缆回接的误差可造成系泊缆张力平均值和标准差与设计值偏差近20%,可能对系泊系统疲劳寿命评估产生较大的影响。与系泊缆回接误差相比,系泊缆预铺误差的产生原因更为复杂,由于系泊缆预铺误差往往导致系泊缆长度增长,存在误差的系泊缆张力的各项统计值总体偏小,但可能会造成同组无误差系泊缆的张力过载。  相似文献
