Introduction. In case of brief exposure to static loads or dynamic loads, in conditions of absence of drainage, distribution of total stresses between the skeleton of soil and pore gas-containing water should be taken in account. The situation of the stress-strain state of the base is further complicated when we consider the degree of water-saturation of soil of the foundation (0.8 < Sr ≤ 1). The aim of the study is to pose and solve problem of the stress-strain state of a water-saturated soil massif, Including settlement and bearing capacity of a water-saturated base of a foundation of finite width, depending on the degree of water saturation of soils, taking into account the linear and nonlinear properties of the skeleton of soil and the compressibility of pore gas-containing water. Materials and methods. Henckyʼs system of physical equations are used as a calculation model to describe the relationship between deformation and stresses of soil, which takes into account the influence of the average stress on the deformation and strength properties of the soil. This system allows us to represent the linear deformation of the soil as the sum of the volumetric and shear components of the soil of this deformation. In addition allows us too to determine the deformation of the layer of soil, as part of the compressible thickness of the base of foundation with finite width under conditions of free deformations. Results. Depending on the linear and nonlinear deformation parameters, the settlement can be developed with a damped curve (S – p) and stabilize, and can be developed with a non-damped curve (S – p) and moved to the stage of progressive settlement. Conclusions. Solutions have been made for cases when the water-saturation of the base soils changes in the range of 0.8 to 1.0. It is shown that the settlement and bearing capacity of a water-saturated base significantly depends on the degree of water saturation of soils.

Loess Soils

In Ukraine, the problem of construction on loess soils is relevant due to the widespread use of these soils and their negative property - the ability to give additional deformations of subsidence during water saturation. Flooding of territories by groundwater, emergency leaks from aquifers cause significant problems during the exploitation of buildings and engineering structures on such soils. Computer simulation of the interaction of the building with the soil base allows to investigate the influence of all negative factors on the change of the stress-strain state of both the soil base and the load-bearing structures of the building. The study of the interaction of the building with the foundation was performed using the software package LIRA-CAD. The interaction of the building with the soil base, the soils of which are able to reduce their mechanical properties with increasing humidity and give additional subsidence deformations, was studied. A variant design of the foundations was performed taking into account the occurrence of uneven deformations during subsidence of the loess soil due to its moistening in case of possible emergency losses from aquifers. The change of stress-strain state of the foundations of the building depending on the spatial rigidity of the foundation, the location of the soaking zone within the building spot, the shape and size of the zone of soil moisture is analyzed. It is shown that taking into account the possible water saturation of loess soils when calculating the collaborate of the building with the soil base, allows to obtain stress-strain state of foundations and load-bearing structures of the aboveground part of the building for the most unfavorable conditions that may occur. The search for the optimal variant of the foundation structures of the building, which, while remaining cost-effective, provides reliable operation of the building in conditions of possible occurrence of uneven deformations of subsidence of the soil base during water saturation of the layer of loess soils. According to the research results, a rational variant of the foundation structures has been designed taking into account the possible occurrence of non-uniform deformations.

Stress-strain state of earth dams under the effect of harmonic (seismic) load from the base of the dam is numerically studied in the paper. Rock fill dam has good culvert properties and its water saturation is considered to have no effect on mechanical characteristics and strength properties of rock; filtration flow mainly forms on the low-permeable core of the dam. Usually, the dam core consists of soft (loess) soil, therefore its water saturation significantly influences physical and mechanical properties of soil. A two-dimensional problem is considered for the cross section of a dam using the equation of state with allowance for structural changes in rock fill and moisture content of a dam core with low-permeable trapezium properties. For earth dams, as is known, a filtration flow is formed in the dam body. The problem is solved numerically - by the method of finite differences. The results are presented in the form of graphs and are analyzed.

Stability control of elements of stone constructions of various structures is a prerequisite for their safe operation. The use of modern methods of non-destructive diagnostics of the stress-strain state of such constructions is an effective, and in many cases the only way to control it. Studies of thermal radiation accompanying the processes of solid bodies deformation allowed to justify and develop a method that allows to obtain non-contact information about changes in the stress-strain state in various types of geomaterials, including limestones. However, studies of the water saturation influence of rocks on the thermal radiation parameters recorded in this way are currently superficial. Taking into account the water saturation degree of rocks is necessary when monitoring the mechanical condition of stone structures that are in direct contact with water. The main purpose of this work is to study the dependences of changes in the intensity of thermal radiation from the surface of limestone samples with different humidity under conditions of uniaxial compression. The obtained results showed the expected significant decrease in the mechanical properties (uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus) of water-saturated samples in comparison with dry ones. At the same time, a significant increase in the intensity of thermal radiation of limestone samples subjected to compression with an increase in their water saturation was recorded, which makes it necessary to take into account the revealed regularity when identifying changes in the stress state of stone structures established according to non-contact IR diagnostics in real conditions.

The analysis of the design and technological features of the tail boom (ТB) of a helicopter made of polymer composite materials (PCM) is carried out.Three structural and technological concepts are distinguished - semi-monocoque (reinforced metal structure), monocoque (three-layer structure) and mesh-type structure. The high weight and economic efficiency of mesh structures is shown, which allows them to be used in aerospace engineering. The physicomechanical characteristics of the network structures are estimated and their uniqueness is shown. The use of mesh structures can reduce the weight of the product by a factor of two or more.The stress-strain state (SSS) of the proposed tail boom design is determined. The analysis of methods for calculating the characteristics of the total SSS of conical mesh shells is carried out. The design of the tail boom is presented, the design diagram of the tail boom of the transport category rotorcraft is developed. A finite element model was created using the Siemens NX 7.5 system. The calculation of the stress-strain state (SSS) of the HC of the helicopter was carried out on the basis of the developed structural scheme using the Advanced Simulation module of the Siemens NX 7.5 system. The main zones of probable fatigue failure of tail booms are determined. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) provides a theoretical basis for design decisions.Shown is the effect of the type of technological process selected for the production of the tail boom on the strength of the HB structure. The stability of the characteristics of the PCM tail boom largely depends on the extent to which its design is suitable for the use of mechanized and automated production processes.A method for the manufacture of a helicopter tail boom from PCM by the automated winding method is proposed. A variant of computer modeling of the tail boom of a mesh structure made of PCM is shown.The automated winding technology can be recommended for implementation in the design of the composite tail boom of the Mi-2 and Mi-8 helicopters.
