Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel engineering design, and in particular to a method for analyzing deformation of an existing pile foundation under construction taking into account elastic constraints on pile ends. Background Art
[0002] In the context of large-scale urban rail transit construction, new shield tunnels inevitably involve construction adjacent to existing pile foundations, causing deformation and impacting the normal use and structural safety of the existing pile superstructure. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a safety risk assessment of shield tunnel construction adjacent to pile foundations to provide a basis for optimizing design and construction plans. Accurately calculating the deformation of adjacent pile foundations caused by shield construction is key to safety risk assessment of surrounding buildings.
[0003] Existing methods for analyzing pile foundation deformation under construction that considers elastic constraints at the pile end primarily include analytical methods and numerical simulations. Theoretical analytical methods generally treat the pile foundation as an elastic foundation beam, subject to the ground displacement loads caused by tunnel excavation, and thus calculate the displacement and internal forces of the pile foundation under the influence of tunnel excavation. When addressing pile foundation boundary conditions, the pile end is typically assumed to be either free or fixed. However, in actual projects, the structures or strata constraining pile end displacement have different physical and mechanical parameters. Simply treating the pile end as either free or fixed fails to consider the impact of the actual displacement constraint stiffness on pile foundation deformation and internal forces.
[0004] Currently, relevant research has been conducted on methods for calculating pile foundation displacements that consider the influence of actual constraints at the pile ends. In an existing paper, Sun Yingjie, Shi Chenghua, Wang Zuxian, et al. published an analytical solution to the adjacent pile foundation response induced by tunnel construction, considering actual constraints at both ends. To reflect the actual constraints at both ends of the pile foundation and account for the shear effect of the pile foundation, the pile foundation was simplified as a Timoshenko beam with generalized elastic constraints in a Vlasov foundation, and a simplified tunnel-soil-pile foundation calculation model was established. Based on the elastic foundation beam theory, a two-stage method was used to derive an analytical solution for the additional lateral deformation and internal forces of the pile body under arbitrary boundary constraints during adjacent tunnel construction. The analytical solution was compared with boundary element and finite element numerical solutions to verify the reliability of the analytical model. Finally, a simplified calculation method for the actual constraints at both ends of the pile foundation was proposed, and the influence of the pile top and pile end constraints on the lateral deformation and internal forces of the pile foundation was further analyzed.
[0005] However, the calculation method obtained is based on the numerical method and no corresponding analytical calculation formula is obtained. Compared with the calculation method using the numerical method, the analytical method has higher calculation efficiency and more stable algorithm. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research on the deformation analysis method of existing pile foundations under construction considering the elastic constraint of the pile end, and to provide the corresponding analytical calculation formulas and calculation steps for pile foundation displacement and internal force. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for analyzing the deformation of existing pile foundations during construction, taking into account the elastic constraint of the pile end. Based on the stratum displacement caused by shield tunnel excavation and combined with the basic physical and mechanical parameters of the pile foundation and soil, a calculation formula for the horizontal displacement and internal force of an existing single pile caused by adjacent shield construction is derived.

It is used to calculate the horizontal displacement and internal force of the pile foundation caused by the construction of the shield adjacent to the pile foundation. Compared with the numerical simulation method, the required physical quantities can be obtained by substituting the corresponding calculation parameters. The calculation process is simple. Compared with the theoretical method with the help of numerical methods, this method only needs to solve the four unknown quantities of pile end horizontal displacement wO, wL and pile end bending moments MO, ML to further obtain other unknown coefficients. The calculation efficiency is high, which provides an effective analytical calculation method for the safety risk assessment of existing structures under shield construction adjacent to pile foundations.

[0042] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0043] The present invention discloses a method for analyzing the deformation of existing pile foundations under construction considering the elastic constraints of the pile ends. In order to make the purpose of this application and the technical solution clearer, the existing literature, namely the analytical solution of the response of adjacent pile foundations induced by tunnel construction considering the actual constraints at both ends, is combined with the data, calculation parameters and calculation diagram as shown in the following figure. Figure 1 As shown, this application is further described.
[0044] After the tunnel is constructed near the existing pile foundation, the stratum loss rate ε0 is 2.5%, the soil elastic modulus Es is 24 MPa, the Poisson's ratio υs is 0.5, the tunnel diameter D is 6 m, the pile foundation elastic modulus E is 30 GPa, the pile diameter B is 0.5 m, the pile length L is 25 m, the tunnel center burial depth H is 20 m, and the horizontal distance x0 between the tunnel axis and the pile foundation axis is 4.5 m. The calculation diagram is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the pile foundation is an elastic constraint, and Ksu = Ksd = 1×109 kN·m·rad-1, Ktu = Ktd = 1×109 kN·m-1.
[0045] Step 1: For the pile foundation boundary conditions and load conditions described in this example, the pile foundation is considered as an elastic foundation beam on the Vlasov foundation model. The differential equation governing the horizontal displacement of the existing pile foundation caused by tunnel excavation is:
[0046]
[0047] Where: E is the elastic modulus of the existing pile foundation, Pa; I is the interface moment of inertia of the existing pile foundation, m4; w is the horizontal displacement of the existing pile foundation, m, with the direction away from the tunnel excavation side as positive; z is the coordinate along the axis of the existing pile foundation, m, with the pile top as the origin z = 0; B is the diameter of the pile foundation, m; t is the load transfer rate, N / m.
[0048] For the Vlasov foundation model, we have: Among them, Es is the elastic modulus of the soil; υs is the Poisson's ratio of the soil; He is the thickness of the foundation elastic layer, which is 2.5 times the pile diameter D; h is the function of the displacement along the horizontal direction, i.e., the x direction, which is
[0049] k is the stiffness coefficient of the soil around the pile, Pa / m. For the Vlasov foundation model, we have:
[0050] U is the horizontal displacement of the ground at the pile position caused by shield tunnel excavation, and the analytical formula for soil displacement field proposed by Loganathan is adopted:
[0051]
[0052] Where ε0 is the stratum loss rate; x0 is the horizontal distance from the pile foundation axis to the tunnel axis, m; R is the tunnel excavation radius, m; H is the tunnel center burial depth, m.
[0053] Step 2: Determine the calculation formula for the horizontal displacement of pile foundation caused by shield tunnel excavation:
[0054]
[0055] Where wn is the sine series term of the pile foundation horizontal displacement function; L is the calculated length of the pile foundation, in m; wO and wL are the horizontal displacements of the pile top and bottom, in m; MO and ML are the bending moments at the pile top and bottom, in N·m, respectively.
[0056] Step 3: Determine the calculation formula for the pile foundation bending moment and shear force caused by shield tunnel excavation:
[0057]
[0058] Where M is the bending moment of the pile foundation, N·m; Q is the shear force of the pile foundation, N.
[0059] Step 4: The expressions of pile foundation horizontal displacement w, pile foundation bending moment M, and pile foundation shear force Q in steps 1-3 contain the undetermined coefficients wn, wO, wL, MO, and ML, where the undetermined coefficient wn is determined by the following formula:
[0060] w n =A1,n w O +A 2,n w L +A 3,n M O +A 4,n M L +A 5,n
[0061] Where A 1,n 、A 2,n 、A 3,n 、A 4,n 、A 5,n is the comprehensive coefficient, which is determined by the following formula:
[0062]
[0063] in, The known functions The coefficients of the sine series expansion are U n is the series coefficient after the sine series expansion of the known formation displacement function U(z), that is,
[0064] The unknown coefficients wO, wL, MO, and ML are determined by the following equations: w = sv
[0065] Where w is a vector of unknown coefficients, that is, w = (w O w L M O M L ) T ; s is the coefficient matrix of the equation system, that is v is the vector composed of the right-hand side terms of the equation group, that is, v = (v1v2 v3 v4)T.
[0066] The elements s11, s12, ..., s34, and s44 of the coefficient matrix s of the system of equations are determined by the following formula:

[0069] The elements v1, v2, v3, and v4 of the vector v on the right side of the equation system are determined by the following formula:
[0070]
[0071] Substitute the known calculation parameters into the above formula to obtain the unknown coefficients wn, wO, wL, MO, and ML, and then obtain the horizontal displacement, bending moment, and shear force of the pile foundation caused by the adjacent tunnel construction. The results are as follows: Figures 2 to 4 As shown in the figure, to verify the correctness of the calculation method of the present invention, a comparison is made with the calculation results of the existing literature, namely, Sun Yingjie, Shi Chenghua, Wang Zuxian, etc., which considers the actual constraints at both ends and induced by tunnel construction in the adjacent pile foundation. It can be seen that the calculation results of this embodiment are basically consistent with the calculation results of the existing literature, proving the correctness of the calculation method of the present invention. In the literature, the calculation of pile foundation displacement and internal force uses the finite difference method. Compared with the calculation method in the literature, the calculation method of the present invention only needs to solve the four unknown quantities wO, wL, MO, and ML to obtain the other unknown parameters and then calculate the pile foundation horizontal displacement and internal force, which significantly improves the calculation efficiency.
