    盾构施工与波浪荷载耦合作用后软土力学特性

    Mechanical properties of soft clay after coupling between shield construction and wave loading

    • 摘要: 针对波浪循环荷载作用和盾构穿越海堤过程中的施工扰动对下卧软黏土地基的弱化效应问题,研究了盾构施工与波浪荷载耦合作用后海洋软土的强度和刚度变化规律。通过逐步降围压的方式模拟盾构施工过程中的地层损失所引起的应力释放,循环加载3 000次模拟波浪荷载长期作用,开展了波浪和盾构施工耦合作用后的软土空心圆柱扭剪不排水剪切单元体试验。试验结果表明:(1) 在盾构施工与波浪荷载耦合作用下,软黏土的强度和刚度均随围压变大而增强,在同一围压下,二者均随波浪循环次数和土体损失率(δ)的增大而减小。(2) 在相同的波浪循环剪切次数下,软黏土初始切线模量随δ的增加而呈线性递减趋势,而软黏土黏聚力和内摩擦角随δ的增加而呈现非线性减小。波浪和盾构施工耦合作用后软黏土的强度和刚度均呈现不同程度的衰减,二者耦合扰动作用对软黏土的弱化效应在实际工程中应充分重视。此研究对探讨复杂扰动条件下海洋结构性软土力学特性规律,丰富和发展扰动状态下结构性软土的计算理论,以及对海岛基础设施建设具有重要的参考价值。

       

      Abstract: The soften effect of the cyclic wave loading and construction disturbance during shield passing through the breakwater on the beneath soft clay ground is examined and the static mechanical behaviour (shear strength, stiffness, etc.) of the marine soft soil after coupling of shield construction disturbance and wave loading are investigated in this paper. A serious of hollow cylinder apparatus (HCA) undrained shear elementary tests of the soft clay after coupling between shield construction disturbance and wave loading are conducted, in which the stress loss induced by the ground loss during the shield construction is modeled through gradually reducing the confining pressure and the long-time wave loading is simulated by the 3,000 cyclic loading. The experimental results show that (1) both the shear strength and stiffness of the soft clay increases with the increasing confining pressure. However, they both decrease with the increasing wave cycles and ground loss rate (δ) under the same confining pressure. (2) Under the same wave cycle shear times, the initial tangent modulus of the soft clay decreases linearly with the increasing soil loss (δ) under the same wave cycle. However, both the cohesive force and internal friction angle decrease nonlinearly with the increase of δ. Above all, both the shear strength and stiffness of the soft clay are reduced in different amplitudes after the coupling actions of wave loading and shield construction. It is suggested that full attention should be paid to the soften effect on static mechanical behaviour of soft clay after the coupled disturbance effect of shield construction and wave loads in practical engineering.
