Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of geotechnical engineering technology, and in particular to a method for applying a calcareous sand crushing energy model developed based on ABAQUS. Background Technology

[0002] Calcareous sand is a special type of soil and rock medium formed by the in-situ deposition of marine biological remains. Its main component is calcium carbonate, and it is primarily distributed in tropical and subtropical coral reef waters. Its unique biogenic origin gives calcareous sand characteristics such as porosity, irregular shape, and fracturing. Particle fracturing leads to changes in the shape and size distribution of calcareous sand particles, affecting its mechanical behavior and deformation properties. With the development of marine engineering, various projects require construction on calcareous sand foundations, such as offshore wind power, offshore oil, and island construction. Therefore, in-depth research on the engineering properties of calcareous sand and the development of suitable fracturing models are of great significance for marine engineering construction.

[0003] Many studies have incorporated particle breakage into existing theoretical frameworks, proposing constitutive models suitable for particle breakage. However, existing methods primarily measure particle breakage by changes in particle size distribution before and after shearing, known as the particle breakage index. This method fails to capture the continuous evolution of particle breakage during loading. Particle breakage is essentially an energy-consuming plastic behavior; therefore, particle breakage energy is the most direct indicator of particle breakage. However, no studies have yet used particle breakage energy to characterize particle breakage evolution and incorporated it into soil constitutive models.

[0004] Dense calcareous sand exhibits significant strain softening characteristics under conventional confining pressure. This is due to the extremely irregular shape of the calcareous sand particles, resulting in a significant interlocking effect during shearing. Adjacent particles interlock, hindering rearrangement. Therefore, the strength of calcareous sand initially increases to a peak value during shearing, a phenomenon known as pre-peak hardening. When particles overcome interlocking and undergo shear slip, the calcareous sand begins to soften, and its strength gradually decreases to the critical state value. The modified Mohr-Coulomb model, based on the traditional Mohr-Coulomb model, incorporates the sliding friction angle... The expansion angle ψ is expressed as a function of the partial plastic strain ξ and the average effective stress p´. Thus, the soil strength parameters change during shearing, better characterizing the hardening-softening properties of dense soils. However, existing angle evolution methods mostly employ linear evolution, which does not conform to the actual evolution law of soil strength parameters. Summary of the Invention

[0129] The embodiments of the present invention simulate relative density The drained triaxial shear process of 75% calcareous sand (from LedgePoint, Western Australia) under different confining pressures (100 Pa, 300 Pa, 500 kPa) specifically includes the following steps:

[0130] A. In the finite element ABAQUS software, establish soil and loading plate models. The soil is cylindrical with a height of 0.139m and a diameter of 0.0708m. The cylindrical loading plate interface is slightly larger than the soil interface, with a height of 0.005m and a diameter of 0.1m.
