Movement And Deformation

The interface program of finite element software based on surface spline interpolation is developed by using MATLAB software. The controllable 3D surface modeling based on CAD contour is realized. Taking a mine as an example, the method of establishing the 3D numerical calculation model including complex stratum boundary is studied. The influence of underground mining on surface movement and deformation under complex stratum conditions by using the FLAC3D software further was discussed. The research results show that the developed interface program of finite element software can well realize the numerical modeling of complex formation and provide help for subsequent numerical simulation. The calculated subsidence value is in good agreement with the measured value. The values of surface tilt, surface curvature, and surface horizontal deformation are less than the relevant regulations. The mining method of the filling method has no obvious effect on the surface structures. The research results can provide reference for similar numerical simulation.

Strengthening Method

For the purpose of the study of the mechanical mechanism of beam-reduction and rib-addition strengthening method as well as the difference between hinged beam method and rigidly connected beam method, finite element models are established for hollow slab bridge before and after strengthening respectively with the finite element software Ansys. The stress distributions on hollow slab bridge before and after strengthening are compared through numerical simulation analysis. The improvement effects of beam-reduction and rib-addition method on the transverse connection and stress state of hollow slab bridge are analyzed at the same time. It is proved that this strengthening method is of obvious effect and the bearing capacity of the existing bridge can be greatly enhanced. Meanwhile, the result of numerical simulation analysis shows that the beam-reduction and rib-addition hinged beam method and rigidly connected beam method have the similar effects. Both of them result in much improvement of transverse distribution and enhancement of transverse connection. But the rigidly connected beam method has a better overall rigidity and a tighter transverse connection. Its improvement effect on the stress state of the old beam slab is superior to that of the hinged beam method.

Sliding Zone

The creep slope is a dynamic development process, from stable deformation to instability failure. For the slope with sliding zone, it generally creeps along the sliding zone. If the sliding zone controlling the slope sliding does not have obvious displacement, and the slope has unexpected instability without warning, the harm and potential safety hazard are often much greater than the visible creep. Studying the development trend of this kind of landslide is of great significance to slope treatment and landslide early warning. Taking Xiashan village landslide in Huishan Town, Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province as an example, the landslide point was determined by numerical simulation in 2006. Generally, the landslide is a typical long-term slow deformation towards the free direction. Based on a new round of investigation and monitoring, this paper shows that there are signs of creeping on the surface of the landslide since 2003, and there is no creep on the deep sliding surface. The joint fissures in the landslide area are relatively developed, and rainfall infiltration will soften the soft rock and soil layer and greatly reduce its stability. This paper collects and arranges the rainfall data of the landslide area in recent 30 years, constructs the slope finite element model considering rainfall conditions through ANSYS finite element software, and carries out numerical simulation stability analysis. The results show that if cracks appear below or above the slope’s sliding surface, or are artificially damaged, the sliding surface may develop into weak cracks. Then, the plastic zone of penetration is offset; In the case of heavy rain, the slope can unload itself under the action of rainfall. At this time, the slope was unstable and the landslide happened suddenly.

To investigate the transient electromagnetic method of response characteristics in the tunnel geological prediction, the finite element numerical simulation of unfavorable geological body of different location, different resistivity sizes, different shapes, and different volume size were carried out by ANSYS finite element software. The results show that secondary electromagnetic field of different location of unfavorable geological body have same decay rate, when detection distance from 30m to 70m, transient electromagnetic responses are strongest, followed distance from 10m to 30m and from 70m to 90m. The shape, volume and resistivity of unfavorable geological body have strong influence on transient electromagnetic response, unfavorable geological body more sleek, the greater the volume and the smaller the resistivity of unfavorable geological body, the secondary electromagnetic field decay slower.

Abstract Mechanical damage in subsea pipelines in the form of local dents / buckles due to excessive bending deformation may severely threaten their structural integrity. A dent / buckle has two significant effects on the pipeline integrity. Notably, residual stresses are set up as result of the plastic deformation and stress concentrations are created due to change in pipe geometry caused by the denting / buckling process. To assess the criticality of a dent / buckle, which often can be associated with strain induced flaws in the highly deformed metal, integrity assessment is required. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the severity of dent / buckle in a 48” subsea pipeline and to make the rerate, repair or replacement decision. This paper presents a Level 3 integrity assessment of a subsea pipeline dent / buckle with metal loss, reported in in-line inspection (ILI), in accordance with Fitness-For-Service Standard API 579-1/ASME FFS-1. In this paper, the deformation process that caused the damage (i.e. dent / buckle) with metal loss is numerically simulated using ILI data in order to determine the magnitude of permanent plastic strain developed and to evaluate the protection against potential failure modes. For numerical simulation, elastic-plastic finite element analyses (FEA) are performed considering the material as well as geometric non-linearity using general purpose finite element software ABAQUS/CAE 2017. Based on the numerical simulation results, the integrity assessment of dented / buckled subsea pipeline segment with metal loss has been performed to assess the fitness-for-service at the operating loads.

Permafrost Regions

The geological environment along a buried pipeline in permafrost regions is complex, where differential frost heave often occurs. To understand the changes in the stress behavior of pipeline structures caused by corrosion while laying them in permafrost regions, we established a thermo-mechanical coupling model of buried pipeline with corrosion defects by using finite element software. Numerical simulation analysis of buried pipeline was conducted. The effects of the frost heave length, the length of the transition section, the corrosion depth, and the corrosion length on the stress displacement were obtained. These analyses showed that the stresses and displacements of the pipeline with corrosion defects in permafrost regions can be simulated by using the finite element software numerical simulation method. Afterward, the corrosion resistances of pipelines with different corrosion lengths and depths were investigated via an electrochemical testing method. These results can provide some useful insights into the possible mechanical state of buried pipeline with regard to their design and construction, as well as some useful theoretical references for simulating real-time monitoring and safety analysis for their operation in permafrost regions.

The Zonal Disintegration Phenomenon

In order to study the supporting of deep surrounding rock with zonal disintegration tendency, the zonal disintegration phenomenon of deep surrounding rock under three supporting forms is analyzed by the ABAQUS finite element software in this paper, and three supporting forms are un-supporting, bolting and grouting, and combined “Bolting and grouting plus Anchor rope” supporting. The results show that the different effects to zonal disintegration under different supporting forms will occur. Supporting can help to restrain the zonal disintegration of the reinforcement part advantageously, and also lower rupture degree of zonal disintegration and reduce the size of rupture zone. Meanwhile, the stability of surrounding rock is improved. But zonal disintegration may occur outside reinforcement part under greater ground stress. The results are great importance to a better understanding of the deep roadway supporting.
