TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of marine pile foundation engineering, in particular to a test device for simulating the impact of submarine mud flow on pile foundation structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous advancement of the strategy of building a strong marine country, the process of marine resource development and utilization is accelerating, and the number of pile foundation structures such as offshore wind turbines, offshore drilling platforms and offshore photovoltaics is significantly increasing. At the same time, the influence of marine geological disasters on marine pile foundation engineering facilities is increasingly prominent, among which submarine landslides have become one of the important factors leading to the destruction and failure of offshore engineering structures. Under the action of seawater environment, the submarine landslide body will exchange water and soil during movement, and its movement form can be divided into collapse, sliding, mud flow and turbidity current. Among them, submarine collapse and sliding maintain the mechanical properties of soil, and their density is large and speed is relatively slow. After the density is reduced through water-soil conversion, they gradually change into non-Newtonian fluid, that is, submarine mud flow. Due to the existence of sliding water effect, submarine mud flow is characterized by fast flow speed and strong impact force, which can cause significant impact on pile foundations, pipelines and other infrastructure within the submarine landslide path.
[0003] In existing research, some scholars use theoretical analysis and numerical simulation methods to study the movement characteristics of submarine landslides after instability and their impact effect on engineering structures. However, due to the dependence of such research on more idealized assumptions, the results have limited agreement with the actual submarine landslide process. In contrast, physical model tests can intuitively reproduce the dynamic characteristics of submarine landslides under controlled conditions, and are an important means of studying landslide impact mechanisms and structural responses.
[0004] Existing water tank mud flow simulation devices mostly use gravity self-flowing type trough structures to release mud flow soil by opening the bottom valve or removing the baffle to simulate the movement process of submarine mud flow. Such devices mainly rely on gravity potential to make mud flow soil flow naturally, and cannot control the flow speed of mud flow soil, making it difficult to simulate the high-speed flow characteristics generated by the sliding water effect in the actual submarine mud flow process, and further cannot accurately simulate the impact load of high-speed mud flow on pile foundation engineering. At the same time, existing water tank mud flow simulation devices cannot flexibly match multiple different seabed inclination angles, making it difficult to meet the simulation needs of the dynamic characteristics of high-speed submarine mud flow in various nearshore pile foundation engineering scenarios.

[0026] The angle adjusting assembly 8 is arranged inside the model box 1, which comprises a frame body, the right side of which is an open side and is a hollow structure, and a rotating disc 83 is rotationally connected inside the frame body, the rotating disc 83 is internally provided with a channel 831, the channel 831 penetrates the left and right sides of the rotating disc 83 in the circumferential direction of the rotating disc 83, and the outlet of the channel 831 faces the same side as the open side of the frame body, i.e., the right side. A vertical first through hole 821 is formed in the upper part of the frame body, the first through hole 821 is provided for the release pipe 5 to penetrate, the first through hole 821 is located in the same vertical direction as the bottom opening of the hopper 2, and a limiting cylinder 823 is arranged below the first through hole 821, the limiting cylinder 823 is coaxial with the first through hole 821, and the limiting cylinder 823 is used to limit the part of the vertical section of the release pipe 5, so as to avoid the deviation of the release pipe 5 due to excessive release pressure. Preferably, the release pipe 5 is a metal hose, which can be telescopic and bent while ensuring a certain output pressure. After one end of the release pipe 5 is connected to the bottom of the hopper 2, the other end of the release pipe 5 is vertically downwardly extended, penetrates the first through hole 821 and the limiting cylinder 823 in sequence, penetrates the channel 831 of the rotating disc 83 after being bent, and is finally exposed to the right side of the frame body, i.e., the release pipe 5 is used to realize the communication between the hopper 2 and the model box 1. By rotating the rotating disc 83, the opening angle of the release pipe 5 is adjusted, and the release angle of the mud flow soil body is adjusted. Further, the frame body comprises a front cover 81 and a rear frame 82, the back of the rotating disc 83 is rotationally connected to the rear frame 82 through a bearing, and the front surface of the rotating disc 83 extends in the axial direction and is provided with a rotating rod 832, the rotating rod 832 penetrates the front cover 81 and is rotationally connected to the front cover 81 through a bearing. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the rotating disc 83, the rotating rod 832 outside the front cover 81 can be rotated, so as to drive the rotating disc 83 to rotate. The front cover 81 and the rear frame 82 are detachably connected, which can be bolted, screwed, buckled, etc., and are not limited here.
[0027] The rotating disc 83 is provided with a plurality of angular holes 834 in the circumferential direction. Since the site is usually a gentle slope in the offshore pile foundation engineering, the actual seabed inclination angle range is mostly 0-30°, so in this embodiment, the angular holes 834 are five and are arranged at an interval of 6° in the circumferential direction of the rotating disc 83. The upper part of the frame body is provided with a second through hole 822, and the rotating disc 83 is locked by inserting a screw rod 826 into a certain angular hole 834 of the rotating disc 83 after penetrating the second through hole 822 of the frame body in the vertical direction, so as to ensure that the rotating disc 83 will not be passively rotated due to external force during the test. An arc-shaped track 824 is arranged on the inner wall of the frame body, and the path of the arc-shaped track 824 is the same as the rotating track of the rotating disc 83, that is, the arc-shaped track 824 is coaxial with the rotating disc 83, and the arc of the arc-shaped track 824 is 30°. Correspondingly, a limiting rod 833 extending in the axial direction is arranged on the rotating disc 83, and the limiting rod 833 is movable in the arc-shaped track 824. The rotating angle of the rotating disc 83 is limited to within 30° by the arc-shaped track 824, so as to avoid excessive bending or direct extrusion of the release pipe 5 due to too large rotating angle of the rotating disc 83. The passage 831 in the rotating disc 83 is a wedge-shaped structure, wherein the wide mouth is the inlet end of the release pipe 5 (i.e. close to one end of the bending section of the release pipe 5), and the narrow mouth is the outlet end of the release pipe 5 (i.e. close to one end of the opening of the release pipe 5). By the wedge-shaped passage 831, the bending degree of the release pipe 5 is ensured to be within 90° on the premise of adjusting the opening angle, so as to further avoid excessive bending or direct extrusion of the release pipe 5. Specifically, in the initial state, the opening of the release pipe 5 faces the horizontal direction, that is, the rotating angle of the rotating disc 83 is 0°. At this time, the release pipe 5 abuts against one side inner wall of the passage 831 (the upper wall of the passage 831 in the drawing). When the rotating disc 83 rotates clockwise, the opening of the release pipe 5 gradually inclines downward until the rotating disc 83 rotates to 30°. At this time, the release pipe 5 abuts against the other side inner wall of the passage 831 (the lower wall of the passage 831 in the drawing). The lower part of the frame body is provided with a positioning claw (not shown in the drawing), which is inserted into the seabed soil 11 to fix the frame body and the rotating disc 83 together in the model box 1. When installing the angle adjusting assembly 8, first, the connecting end of the release pipe 5 is inserted into the narrow mouth of the passage 831 of the rotating disc 83 from the wide mouth of the passage 831, and then is inserted into the limiting cylinder 823 and the first through hole 821 to communicate with the valve 6 and the bottom of the hopper 2, so that the opening end of the release pipe 5 is clamped on the narrow mouth of the passage 831. Then, the rotating disc 83 connected with the release pipe 5 is rotatably connected to the rear frame 82, so that the limiting rod 833 on the back of the rotating disc 83 is movably connected to the arc-shaped track 824 of the rear frame 82. Then, the front cover 81 is connected with the rear frame 82 provided with the rotating disc 83, so that the connection between the angle adjusting assembly 8 and the release pipe 5 is completed. Finally, the angle adjusting assembly 8 is inserted into the seabed soil 11 at the preset position by the positioning claw, so that the bottom opening of the hopper 2, the first through hole 821 and the limiting cylinder 823 are located in the same vertical direction.
[0028] The silo 2 is provided with a stirring assembly. Before releasing the debris flow soil in the silo 2, the stirring assembly is used to stir the debris flow soil, so as to prevent the water and soil from being layered due to long-term standing. Specifically, the silo 2 comprises a silo cover 21 and a silo body 22. The silo cover 21 is provided with a motor 214. An output shaft of the motor 214 is vertically downward connected with a rotating shaft 221. The rotating shaft 221 is rotatably connected to the silo cover 21 and extends through the silo cover 21 to the inside of the silo body 22. The rotating shaft 221 is connected with stirring blades 222 at the end. More specifically, the pressurizing hole, the pressure monitoring table 212 and the pressure relief valve 213 are all arranged on the silo cover 21. The bottom of the silo body 22 is open and connected with one end of the release pipe 5. The lower part of the silo cover 21 and the upper part of the silo body 22 are provided with grooves at the corresponding positions. The grooves are provided with sealing rings to ensure the air tightness of the connection between the silo cover 21 and the silo body 22. The silo cover 21 and the silo body 22 are connected by bolts.
[0029] The model box 1 is provided with two wave absorbing plates 13. The two wave absorbing plates 13 are arranged on the left and right sides inside the model box 1, i.e. on the side opposite to the release direction of the debris flow soil. The wave absorbing plate 13 is in a U-shaped structure, and the wave-approaching surface is lower than the wave-receding surface. The wave-approaching surface and the arc surface of the wave absorbing plate 13 are both provided with a plurality of wave absorbing holes 131. Based on the energy dissipation mechanism of the wave, the wave absorbing plate 13 will raise corresponding waves during the release of the debris flow soil. When the waves propagate to the wave absorbing plate 13, part of the wave energy is absorbed and dissipated through the horizontal wave absorbing holes 131 arranged on the wave-approaching surface of the wave absorbing plate 13. When the waves enter the arc surface of the wave absorbing plate 13, the waves are trapped in the arc surface of the wave absorbing plate 13 through the wave absorbing holes 131 arranged on the arc surface of the wave absorbing plate 13, and part of the wave energy is further absorbed and dissipated through the wave absorbing holes 131 arranged on the arc surface. In this way, the wave energy is gradually consumed, so as to reduce the influence of wave reflection on the test results. Further, the wave absorbing plate 13 is fixedly arranged on the surface of the water body 12 inside the model box 1.
[0030] The test system includes various sensing and image acquisition devices for collecting and acquiring key response data during the test process, which can be configured according to the test requirements. In this embodiment, the test system includes a laser displacement meter 91, a pore water pressure meter 92, a strain gauge 93, and a high-speed camera 94. Specifically, the laser displacement meter 91 is installed on the back side of the model box 1 and is horizontally aligned with the pile body 3 (in the drawing, the laser displacement meter 91 is located directly behind the pile body 3), and the laser displacement meter 91 is used to acquire the displacement time history data of the pile body 3 during the impact process; the pore water pressure meter 92 is buried in the seabed soil 11 and is used to collect the pore water pressure response of the seabed soil 11 under the impact of the mud flow soil; the strain gauge 93 is multiple and is pasted on the pile body 3 at intervals in the circumferential and axial directions of the pile body 3, and the strain gauge 93 is used to measure the strain time history change of the pile body 3, and the bending moment data can also be obtained through background calculation; the high-speed camera 94 is installed in front of the model box 1, and the high-speed camera 94 is used to record the movement characteristics of the mud flow soil and the interaction process between the mud flow soil and the pile body 3. The high-speed seabed mud flow speed, the movement form change law, the pore water pressure change law of the seabed, and the interaction law between the high-speed seabed mud flow and the pile foundation structure are obtained through the high-speed camera 94 and the pore water pressure meter 92. The dynamic response law of the pile foundation structure under the action of the high-speed seabed mud flow is obtained through the numerical feedback calculation of the laser displacement meter 91 and the strain gauge 93, including the displacement, strain, and bending moment of the pile foundation structure change with time, thereby providing a basis for the disaster resistance and mitigation design of the pile foundation structure of the marine engineering.
