ABAQUS is used to study the load-settlement characteristic and soil displacement field of the pile raft foundation. Numerical results are compared to the outputs from model test. The study results show that good consistency is obtained from the comparison of results between numerical simulation and model tests. Small pile space will weaken the single pile bearing capacity. The compress region is mainly centralized in the soil beneath the pile tip to the 3b space pile raft foundation, which presents a massive deep foundation failure pattern. As the increase of pile space, the compress region under cap shifts upward. The displacement influence depth of 6b space pile foundation is smaller than 3b space pile raft foundation, and it is destroyed by the lateral squeeze of the soil around piles.

It is a complicated progress of interaction between pile and soil when pile is under both vertical load and horizontal load. This paper analyzes the variation of stress, strain, deformation and deflection of the pile body by finite element numerical simulation of single bored concrete pile under vertical load together with horizontal load. Based on the existing research results, conclusions could be that the vertical load can increase horizontal bearing capacity of the pile in sandy soils, but horizontal bearing capacity of the pile in clayey soils is more complicated. Hope that the simulation can provide some references for the design of pile foundation.

AbstractIt is believed that a dynamic analysis is urgently required to provide a more reliable numerical method for seismic evaluation of a full system, which includes foundation, super structure, and ground in earthquake zones such as Taiwan and Japan. A centrifugal model test of pile foundation is simulated numerically using a three-dimensional finite-element model (3D-FEM) code in this study. In the numerical simulation, parameters of the sandy soils in tij model that are derived from accumulated experiences in static tests are first calibrated by centrifugal vibration tests of sandy ground. Model tests of a single pile foundation installed in grounds of same unit weight of soil as in the static tests are then simulated using the calibrated parameters. The numerical simulation resulted in a good agreement with the corresponding physical model tests. By comparing the computed and the observed results, one can find and confirm that it is necessary to employ an appropriate soil model to reproduce dynamic soil behavior due to major vibration. Representation of pile by beam element in the numerical analysis is applicable when attention is paid on the response acceleration of top of pile foundation, on soils at some distances to the pile foundation, and on bending moment of the pile in a stiffer ground. Equal-displacement boundary condition for two-side boundaries is proven to be efficient. To reduce the computation time, the assumption of a constant damping of viscous matrix is acceptable.

Pile foundation settlement is a kind of foundation form. In recent years, because of the increasing population and economic development in China, high-rise buildings have emerged in people’s vision. Due to the development of engineering construction, the type and technology of pile foundation, as well as the control and detection of the single pile and pile group have been greatly improved. In view of the influence of pile foundation settlement on the surrounding environment of high-rise buildings, this paper mainly studies from the angle of single pile settlement and pile group settlement. According to the construction method of pile foundation, the static pressure sinking pipe cast-in-place pile can produce soil squeezing effect in pile foundation construction. The experimental analysis was carried out. According to the engineering example, finite element numerical simulation is used to analyze the influence degree of pile foundation settlement on adjacent buildings with and without raft, and the feasibility and correctness of numerical simulation are analyzed by comparing the simulation results with the measured values. This paper mainly studies the influence of pile foundation settlement of high-rise buildings on surrounding buildings from the aspects of problems and solutions.

The regular pattern of the lateral friction transmission is one of the most critical influences on the ultimate uplift bearing capacity. The pile foundation in the incline under the pulling force has a wide variety of characteristics which is different with the normal pile. Numerical simulation is done by the use of FLAC3D in this paper. The regular pattern of the lateral friction transmission of the pile in the incline under the pulling force is studied. And the influence factors on the lateral friction transmission such as the slope gradient, the length and location of piles are discussed. The results show that the incline has a great influence on the lateral friction transmission. The lateral friction which is away from the incline-side is about 30% to 50% bigger than the incline-side. The slope gradient and the location of piles all have a great influence on the lateral friction transmission.

The offshore wind turbine single pile foundation structure is simple and easy to install, but in the earthquake environment, large horizontal displacement is easy to occur, which affects the safe operation of offshore wind turbines. For this reason, the bearing characteristics and influencing factors of large-diameter single-pile offshore wind power under earthquake load are analyzed. The Mohr-Coulomb model is used as the model. The ABAQUS is used to construct the large-scale single-pile finite element model of offshore wind power. Loads and analysis of bearing characteristics and influencing factors of large-diameter single-pile offshore wind power under seismic loading. It is found that the increase of pile foundation depth will significantly reduce the horizontal displacement at the top of single pile. After increasing to a certain extent, it has no significant effect on the development of horizontal deformation of large diameter single pile; with the increase of pile diameter and wall thickness, The deformation of large diameter single pile foundation is reduced, but the influence of the pile foundation thickness on the horizontal deformation of the large diame-ter single pile foundation is no longer significant.
