Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of determining the reasonable arch axis of an underground arch structure, and particularly to an analytical method for the reasonable arch axis of an underground arch structure expressed by a stress function. Background Art
[0002] The reasonable arch axis of a structure makes the structure in a state of uniform compression of the entire cross-section. For brittle materials such as concrete and stone with high compressive strength and low tensile strength, the reasonable arch axis is often considered to be optimal and is widely used in the design of buildings such as arch bridges, dams, and domes. There are also similar arched structures in underground engineering, such as culverts, tunnels, and shafts. Such arch structures generally directly contact the formation and bear the water and soil pressure in the surrounding formation environment. When the underground arch structure has a reasonable arch axis, the mechanical properties of the structure are optimal.
[0003] Generally, determining the reasonable arch axis belongs to the category of structural mechanics principles. Under a known load pattern, the bending moment of each cross-section of the structure is obtained and set to zero to obtain the equation of the reasonable arch axis. Different load patterns result in different forms of the reasonable arch axis. Common forms of the reasonable arch axis include parabola, catenary, circular arc, etc. For complex loads, it is usually difficult to directly obtain. For example, when solving the reasonable arch axis under the action of filling load, the horizontal arch reaction is assumed in advance, and the obtained catenary equation contains this unknown variable and cannot be directly applied. For the convenience of engineering application, engineers use high-order parabolas for fitting according to experience or perform multiple adjustments and optimizations on a pre-determined curve. The optimization results basically meet the engineering requirements, but the physical meaning is not clear enough, and it is difficult to obtain the internal force distribution of the reasonable arch axis. Summary of the Invention

The unknowns in the stress function are determined by the boundary conditions. Determining the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure is transformed into solving the stress function near the arch structure. The analytical solution of the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure expressed by the above stress function satisfies the biharmonic equation;
[0036] If the stress around the underground arch structure is decomposed into multiple groups of stresses , each group of stresses corresponds to its own stress function respectively. Adding these stress functions is still the stress function of the original stress. When the underground arch structure is subjected to multiple stresses, the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure is obtained by adding the stress functions obtained by solving each stress function separately:

In the following paragraphs, the present invention will be described more specifically by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. According to the following description, the advantages and features of the present invention will be clearer. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and use non-precise scales, only for the purpose of facilitating and clearly assisting in explaining the objectives of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0062] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the description of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0063] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0064] Based on the elastic theory, the present invention provides an analytical method for determining the reasonable arch axis of an underground arch structure expressed by a stress function. The present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:
[0065] In the first aspect, starting from the elastic theory, the present invention derives the relationship between the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure and the stress function. It is assumed that the spatial stress of the underground arch structure belongs to a plane strain problem, and its arch plane can be simplified to a two-dimensional arch plane.
[0066] In the plane problem, without considering the body force of the soil mass, the stress state at any position , and can be expressed by the stress function as follows:
[0067] ;
[0068] In the formula,
[0069] , are respectively the abscissa and ordinate of the two-dimensional arch plane;
[0070] , and are the second-order partial derivatives of the stress function with respect to the coordinates and respectively.
[0071] The present invention presupposes that the underground arch structure conforms to a reasonable arch axis. A calculation unit is taken at any point in the position of the arch structure, as Figure 1 shown, including the strata 1 in which the underground arch structure is stored, the underground arch structure 2, and the calculation unit 3 at any position of the underground arch structure. The calculation unit 3 at any position of the underground arch structure is as Figure 2 shown. The stress is considered positive when the soil element is compressed, and the self-weight of the underground arch structure is ignored. The differential equilibrium equation and geometric equation of the calculation unit are obtained as follows:
[0072] ;
[0073] ;
[0074] In the formula, is the axial pressure of the underground arch structure at this point, , and are the soil stresses at this point, is the angle between the tangent of the arch axis and the axis, and are the infinitesimals of the coordinates and respectively.
[0075] By introducing the stress function, the following total differential equation can be obtained:
[0076] ;
[0077] Integrating gives a set of partial differential equations
[0078] ;
[0079] In the formula, and are arbitrary constants.
[0080] Combining with the geometric equation, a new total differential equation can be obtained:
[0081] ;
[0082] Integrating gives the reasonable arch axis equation of the underground arch structure.
[0083] ;
[0084] In the formula, is an arbitrary constant.
[0085] Adding a linear term to the stress function still results in a stress function for the same stress. The above expression can be represented by a new stress function The unknowns in the stress function are determined by the boundary conditions. Therefore, determining the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure is transformed into solving the stress function near the arch structure. The analytical solution of the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure expressed by the above stress function should satisfy the biharmonic equation.
[0086] If the stresses around the underground arch structure are decomposed into multiple groups of stresses each group of stresses corresponds to its own stress function respectively. Summing up these stress functions is still a stress function of the original stress. Therefore, when the underground arch structure is subjected to multiple stress actions, the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure can be obtained by separately solving the respective stress functions and then summing them up.
[0087] ;
[0088] This situation is used when the underground arch structure usually bears multiple loads such as water and soil pressure or when the load form borne by the underground arch structure is relatively complex. The load can be decomposed first and then the stress functions can be solved one by one.
[0089] In addition, using the above partial differential equation, the axial force at any position of the underground arch structure expressed by the stress function can also be obtained:
[0090] .
[0091] On the second aspect, the load - structure method is usually adopted for the structural analysis of the underground arch structure, and the action of the stratum on the structure is directly expressed in the form of load. When determining the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure, the present invention can be used to solve the reasonable arch axis under a given load pattern.
[0092] The simplified model of the load of the stratum acting on the underground arch structure, as Figure 3 shown, includes the underground arch structure 2, the calculation unit 3 at any position of the underground arch structure, the vertical distributed load 21, and the horizontal distributed load 22. The stress of the underground arch structure subjected to the stratum can be expressed as:
[0093] ;
[0094] In the formula, and are the horizontal distributed force and the vertical distributed force respectively that the underground arch structure is subjected to;
[0095] By introducing the stress function, a partial differential equation about the stress function is obtained:
[0096] ;
[0097] Therefore, the stress function obtained by solving this partial differential equation is the reasonable arch axis equation of the underground arch structure.
[0098] After the load is determined, the reasonable arch axis of the arch structure is also determined accordingly. The coordinate variables of the arch axis are not independent of each other. Therefore, the vertical distributed force of the arch structure can be expressed in the form of or , and the horizontal distributed force can also be expressed as or . In particular, when , the general solution of the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure expressed by the stress function can be obtained:
[0099] ;
[0100] In the formula, are undetermined numbers, which are determined by the boundary conditions.
[0101] Under the action of multiple groups of loads, the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure can be expressed as:
[0102] .
[0103] The analytical method for the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure proposed by the present invention starts from the stress distribution around the underground arch structure and can be directly used to solve the reasonable arch axis equation under a specific load pattern.
[0104] Thirdly, the steps for applying the analytical method for the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure proposed by the present invention to solve the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure are as follows:
[0105] The first step: Solve the stress function around the underground arch structure under a specific load pattern to obtain the general solution of the reasonable arch axis under this load pattern;
[0106] The second step: Apply the boundary conditions to solve the undetermined parameters in the general solution of the reasonable arch axis to obtain the reasonable arch axis equation of the underground arch structure.
[0107] The specific load pattern includes but is not limited to the vertical uniform load pattern, the circumferential uniform load pattern, and the filling load pattern.
[0108] The boundary conditions vary according to the actual case.

[0116] The stress function under this stress state is calculated as:
[0117] ;
[0118] Applying the boundary conditions, the equation of the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure under vertical uniformly distributed load is obtained:
[0119] .
[0120] Case 2: The reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure under circumferential uniformly distributed load, as Figure 5 shown.
[0121] ;
[0122] The stress function under this stress state is calculated as:
[0123] ;
[0124] Applying the boundary conditions, the equation of the reasonable arch axis of the underground arch structure under circumferential uniformly distributed load is obtained:
[0125] .

[0127] ;
[0128] The partial differential equation for the stress function is obtained:
[0129] .
[0130] The stress function under this stress state is calculated as follows:
[0131] .
[0132] Applying the boundary conditions, the equation of the rational arch axis of the underground arch structure under the fill load is obtained:
[0133] .
[0134] In the formula, , representing the horizontal thrust at the arch seat of the arch structure.
[0135] The analytical method for the rational arch axis of the underground arch structure expressed by the stress function provided by the present invention has clear physical meanings, is simple to operate and easy to master, and avoids complex structural mechanics solutions. The method provided by the present invention can be used to determine the rational arch axis under various load modes, and has good prospects for engineering application and technical popularization.
[0136] The present invention can solve the rational arch axis of the underground arch structure under specific load modes, including the vertical uniform load mode, the circumferential uniform load mode, the fill load mode, etc.
[0137] The present invention has been described exemplarily above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited by the above methods. As long as various improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
