Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a simulation method of complex seismic load in triaxial test, and belongs to the field of indoor test method of geotechnical engineering. BACKGROUND
[0002] Earthquake and its induced secondary disasters will cause great loss of personnel and property and damage to the ecological environment. More and more geotechnical engineering structures are planned and constructed in active fault zone. Compared with far-field ground motion, the asymmetry, pulse characteristics and direction difference of near-field strong motion in active fault zone will cause more serious damage to geotechnical engineering structures. As the direct hosting environment of geotechnical engineering structures, the dynamic characteristics of rock-soil mass under the action of near-field strong motion in active fault zone will have an important influence on the safe operation of geotechnical engineering structures. At the same time, it is proposed to "strengthen the detection of active faults and the assessment of urban active fault strong earthquake risk, and carry out research on the disaster-prone environment, occurrence mechanism and evolution law across countries and regions". Therefore, it is of great scientific significance and great demand background to study the dynamic characteristics of rock-soil mass under the action of near-field strong motion in active fault zone.
[0003] At present, in the research on the dynamic characteristics of rock-soil mass based on indoor triaxial test, Seed simplified method is often used to simplify irregular seismic load into sinusoidal load with specific amplitude and vibration times for consideration, and then the dynamic strength and dynamic deformation characteristics of rock-soil mass under the action of sinusoidal load are studied. The equivalent cycle amplitude A in the method is calculated based on the linear cumulative damage theory of metal, and the equivalent cycle amplitude A is obtained based on the statistical analysis of test results. The method has the following two limitations when used: first, rock-soil mass is a kind of nonlinear material, the linear cumulative damage theory of metal is not applicable to rock-soil material, which is specifically manifested in that Seed simplified method cannot consider the influence of wave sequence of irregular seismic load; second, Seed simplified method does not distinguish between different types of earthquakes and is based on the liquefaction angle of sand. Studies have shown that the load simplification coefficient of different soil bodies is different, and the method cannot represent the characteristics of near-field strong motion.
[0004] Based on this, the present application combines seismic motion statistical analysis and indoor triaxial test technology to propose a simulation method of complex seismic load in triaxial test. The method is helpful to further understand the influence of near-field strong motion on the dynamic characteristics of rock-soil mass, and provides a scientific basis for the design and construction of geotechnical engineering in active fault zone.

[0058] Step S31, the acceleration time history curve a ( t ) is converted into its corresponding shear stress time history curve τ (t) by using a simplified empirical formula;
