Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of soil improvement, in particular to a method for analyzing the consolidation of anisotropic soil under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary. BACKGROUND

[0002] Various drainage ditches have been used in ground improvement projects such as highways, railways, buildings, and tailings dams. Research on soil consolidation behavior is crucial for ensuring the safe construction, operation, and maintenance of infrastructure. Previous studies have shown that vertical and horizontal drainage ditches can effectively accelerate soil consolidation. Among them, drainage ditches change the drainage path and boundary, allowing pore water to flow in multiple directions. Therefore, the consolidation of horizontal and vertical drainage cannot be simply simplified as a one-dimensional problem. In recent years, multi-dimensional consolidation analysis models have emerged. However, these models usually ignore the non-uniformity of load distribution, although they are prevalent in actual engineering scenarios, such as eccentric load, discontinuous load, and building load, etc. In addition, most multi-dimensional consolidation studies assume that the drainage is limited, i.e., fully permeable or impermeable, without quantifying the impact of partially permeable boundaries on consolidation behavior. In the prior art, a virtual semi-permeable layer is used to simulate horizontal drainage in soil consolidation problems. However, the semi-permeable boundary is currently mainly applied to simplified one-dimensional models, and its exploration in two-dimensional models is limited. The study of complex consolidation behavior of soil under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary is still insufficient.

[0003] In addition, soil anisotropy is also usually ignored in existing consolidation models, although there is evidence that soil anisotropy also plays a key role in consolidation behavior. However, no relevant information has been found in the prior art regarding a two-dimensional consolidation model that includes non-uniform load, soil anisotropy, and semi-permeable boundary. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an analysis method for the consolidation behavior of anisotropic soil under arbitrary non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary, in order to describe the consolidation behavior of anisotropic soil under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary conditions, in view of the deficiencies in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present application provides a method for analyzing the consolidation of anisotropic soil under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary, comprising the following steps: S1, constructing a two-dimensional consolidation model under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary conditions; S2, setting the properties of the soil in the two-dimensional consolidation model; S3, setting the control equations and boundary conditions of the two-dimensional consolidation model; S4, analyzing the two-dimensional consolidation model to obtain the analytical solution of the excess pore pressure, calculating the soil consolidation rate, and analyzing the soil consolidation behavior.

The two-dimensional consolidation model has fully permeable left and right boundaries and semi-permeable upper and lower boundaries with semi-permeability coefficients of , , respectively. The vertical and horizontal permeability coefficients of the soil are and , respectively.

[0007] Further, the soil properties in the two-dimensional consolidation model in S2 include: the soil is homogeneous, anisotropic, and fully saturated, composed of incompressible particles and pore water; the soil stress-strain behavior is linear, without plasticity or creep effect; and the influence of additional stress caused by soil self-weight is ignored during consolidation.

[0018] In this embodiment, the two-dimensional consolidation model constructed adopts anisotropic soil, the thickness of which is limited, the width of which is limited, and the distribution of non-uniform load is is expressed. The two-dimensional consolidation model is fully permeable at the left and right boundaries, and semi-permeable at the upper and lower boundaries, with semi-permeability coefficients of , Due to the anisotropy of the soil, the vertical and horizontal permeability coefficients of the soil are represented by and , respectively.

[0019] S2, the following assumptions and settings are made for the two-dimensional consolidation model: the soil is homogeneous, anisotropic, and fully saturated, composed of incompressible particles and pore water; the stress-strain behavior is linear, small-strain, and has no plastic or creep effect; the influence of additional stress caused by soil self-weight is ignored during consolidation.

[0020] S3, the control equations and boundary conditions of the two-dimensional consolidation model are set.

[0021] According to the Terzaghi-Rendulic law, the control equation of two-dimensional consolidation can be written as: (1) where is the excess pore pressure, , are the vertical and horizontal consolidation coefficients of the soil, , are the vertical and horizontal coordinates in the Cartesian coordinate system, is the time.

[0022] The initial conditions of two-dimensional consolidation are: (2) where is the non-uniform load distribution, which varies with .

[0023] In the two-dimensional consolidation model, vertical drainage pipes are set, and the left and right boundaries are designated as fully permeable boundaries, so that the water can pass through the boundary conditions as follows: (3) (4) The upper and lower boundaries are designated as semi-permeable boundaries, and the boundary conditions are as follows: (5) (6) It should be noted that for the boundary semi-permeability coefficients , , when = 0, the above two equations can be simplified to impermeable boundaries to describe the places where water is difficult to penetrate in the underlying bedrock: (7) (8) When approaching positive infinity, it can be simplified as a full permeable boundary to simulate the lower sand bed with free water seepage: (9) (10) S4, Analyze the two-dimensional consolidation model to obtain the analytical solution of the excess pore pressure, calculate the soil consolidation rate, and analyze the consolidation behavior.

[0024] In this embodiment, the specific formula of the Fourier finite sine transform is as follows: (11) Wherein is the Fourier transform parameter, and is a positive integer. Apply equation (11) to the control equation (1) of two-dimensional consolidation, and combine the left and right boundary conditions (3) and (4) to obtain: (12) The initial condition (2) can be rewritten as: (13) The upper and lower boundary conditions (5) and (6) can be rewritten as: (14) (15) Wherein, can be further decomposed into steady-state solution and transient solution , as follows: (16) According to the variable separation method, the transient solution is further decomposed into spatial function and time function : (17) Combine equation (17) with equation (12) and simplify to obtain: (18) Wherein is the characteristic value, so that the time function satisfies: (19) The spatial function satisfies: (20)​ By combining equations (19) and (20), we can obtain the following: (twenty one) Among them, when hour: (twenty two) when hour: (twenty three) in, (twenty four) (25) Combining equation (21) with equation (14), we get: (26) (27) Combining equation (21) with equation (15), we get: (28) (29) in, and , , , Related, and (30) (31) To further simplify the solution, variables are used. for and The ratio and and The ratio: (32) It can be represented as: (33) in, It is any non-zero constant.

[0025] The following can be obtained through the initial condition (13): (34) Consider steady-state solution The final result is 0. Applying the inverse finite sine transform to the solution process yields the excess pore pressure of the two-dimensional consolidation: (35) consolidation ratio is a key indicator to measure the average consolidation degree of soil, which is calculated by , and the specific calculation formula is as follows: (36) wherein, is the length range of the non-uniform load.

[0026] Therefore, by the consolidation analysis method of anisotropic soil under non-uniform load and semi-permeable boundary provided by the embodiment, a two-dimensional consolidation model is established, and the anisotropy of soil, the influence of non-uniform load, and the influence of boundary drainage capacity are considered, so that the two-dimensional consolidation behavior of soil can be more reasonably and accurately analyzed, which indicates the direction for the two-dimensional consolidation analysis of anisotropic soil under non-uniform load, and provides a better means for the engineering practice of soil improvement.

[0027] The two-dimensional consolidation model provided by the embodiment is verified by specific cases as follows. First, the on-site test is compared and verified: The on-site test case is the excessive pore pressure under the load generated by a certain dam, which is measured on the seventy-fourth day and the nine hundred and fifty-eighth day, and the measurement focus is the silty clay layer of 22m. The upper boundary is mainly silt sand, and the lower boundary is a full permeable boundary. The method takes the vertical distribution of the seventy-fourth day excess pore pressure as the initial condition, and obtains the eight hundred and eighty-fourth day distribution through S1-S4. The related parameters are = 22m, = 100m, , = 1.8 x 10 -7 m 2 / s, = 0 (indicating that the horizontal leakage is ignored), = 7.56 x 10 -10 m / s, = 884 days, and the load is applied to simulate the dam itself. The calculation structure of the method is compared with the on-site test, as shown in FIG. 2. It can be seen that the method has good consistency with the on-site test results.

[0028] Then, the two-dimensional numerical simulation results are compared. A two-dimensional numerical model is established by using COMSOL Multiphysics 6.2, and the conditions adopted by the two-dimensional numerical model are the same as those of the method, and the parameter list is shown in Table 1. Both models are applied with a parabolic load. The two-dimensional numerical model is discretized into 7468 grid units, and a partial differential equation (PDE) module is used for solving, and the results are as follows: Figure 3The analytical solution obtained by the method is further verified to be very consistent with the two-dimensional numerical model in terms of the spatio-temporal variation, which confirms the accuracy of the method and supports the analysis of the effects of non-uniform load and boundary permeability on the anisotropic soil consolidation.
