An analytical model is presented for solving the longitudinal complex impedance of a large-diameter floating pile in viscoelastic surrounding soil with radial heterogeneity and viscous-type damping, taking the effect of three-dimensional wave propagation of soil and lateral inertia of the pile shaft into account. The corresponding analytical solution for longitudinal impedance is also derived and validated via comparisons with existing solutions. The influences of the pile length, Poisson’s ratio of the pile shaft and the viscous damping coefficient, as well as the degree and radius of disturbed surrounding soil, on the longitudinal impedance of the pile shaft are examined by performing parametric analyses. It is demonstrated that the proposed analytical model and solution are suitable for the longitudinal vibration problem of a large-diameter pile and radially inhomogeneous surrounding soil, especially when the pile slenderness is low. In addition, the present solution can be easily degenerated to describe the longitudinal vibration problem relating to a large-diameter floating pile in radially homogenous soil or a pile with fixed-end supports.

Based on the Rayleigh–Love rod model and Novak’s plane-strain theory, an analytical method for the longitudinal vibration of a large-diameter pipe pile in radially heterogeneous soil is proposed. Firstly, the governing equations of the pile-soil system are established by taking both the construction disturbance effect and transverse inertia effect into account. Secondly, the analytical solution of longitudinal dynamic impedance at the pile top can be achieved by using Laplace transform and complex stiffness transfer techniques. Thirdly, the present analytical solution for dynamic impedance can also be performed in contrast with the existing solution to examine the correctness of the analytical method in this work. Further, the effect of pile Poisson’s ratio, pile diameter ratio as well as soil disturbed degree on the dynamic impedance are investigated. The results demonstrate that the Rayleigh–Love rod is appropriate for simulating the vibration of a large-diameter pipe pile in heterogeneous soils.

X-section cast-in-place (referred to as XCC) pile, which is one of new pile types developed by Hohai University, is widely used for pile foundation and pile-supported embankment over soft ground in China. However, little research has been carried out on this new type pile, especially the surrounding soil disturbance under XCC pile installation. This paper presents an analytical solution for estimating the horizontal stress and displacement of surrounding soil of XCC pile after XCC pile installation. The reliability and accuracy of the present solution are verified by comparing them with the field test results. Then, parametric studies, such as outsourcing diameter(a), open arc distance(b), open arc angle(θ), the undrained strength(Su), the limit pile cavity pressure(Plim), and the radius of the plastic zone(Rp), are discussed for the practice engineering design. The results show that the stress and displacement distributions of surrounding soil calculated by this paper are in agreement with field test results.

Based on the theory of wave propagation in three-dimensional (3D) continuum, a new analytical approach for the longitudinal vibration characteristics of a floating pile in layered soils with radial heterogeneity is developed by employing a viscous-type damping model. Firstly, an analytical solution for the longitudinal complex impedance at the pile head is deduced by employing the Laplace transform and complex stiffness technique with the compatibility conditions of the pile and radially inhomogeneous surrounding soil. Secondly, a semi-analytical solution in the time domain is further acquired by using the inverse Fourier transform method. Furthermore, the corresponding analytical solutions are validated through contrasts with previous solutions. Finally, parametric analyses are underway to investigate the effect of radial heterogeneity of surrounding soils on longitudinal vibration characteristics of floating piles. It is indicated that the proposed approach and corresponding solutions can provide a more wide-ranging application than the simple harmonic vibration for longitudinal vibration analysis of a floating pile in soils.

Crimping is widely used in production of large diameter submerged-arc welding pipes. Traditionally, the designers obtain the technical parameters for crimping from experience or trial-errors by experiments. To tackle this problem, a theoretical analytical model is proposed to analysis crimping forming process. In this paper, taking the crimping of X80 steel Φ1219mm×22mm×12000mm welding pipe for instance, the theoretical analytical model is constructed by quadratic polynomial curve fitting technique and mechanics theory. And it is verified by a comparison with experiment results. Thus, the presented model of this research provides an effective path to design crimping parameters.

Abstract In this paper, a semi-analytical solution for free vibration differential equations of curved girders is proposed based on their mathematical properties and vibration characteristics. The solutions of in-plane vibration differential equations are classified into two cases: one only considers variable separation of non-longitudinal vibration, while the other is a synthesis method addressing both longitudinal and non-longitudinal vibration using Rayleigh’s modal assumption and variable separation method. A similar approach is employed for the out of- plane vibration, but further mathematical operations are conducted to incorporate the coupling effect of bending and twisting. In this case study, the natural frequencies of a curved girder under different boundary conditions are obtained using the two proposed methods, respectively. The results are compared with those from the finite element analysis (FEA) and results show good convergence.

The article presents the formulation and analytical solution to a quantification of stress strain state of a two-layer soil cylinder enclosing a long pile, interacting with the cap. The solution of the problem is considered for two cases: with and without account for the settlement of the heel and the underlying soil. In the first case, the article is offering equations for determining the stresses of pile’s body and the surrounding soil according to their hardness and the ratio of radiuses of the pile and the surrounding soil cylinder, as well as formulating for determining equivalent deformation modulus of the system “cap-pile-surrounding soil” (the system). Assessing the carrying capacity of the soil under pile’s heel is of great necessity. In the second case, the article is solving a second-order differential equation. We gave the formulas for determining the stresses of the pile at its top and heel, as well as the variation of stresses along the pile’s body. The article is also formulating for determining the settlement of the foundation cap and equivalent deformation modulus of the system. It is shown that, pushing the pile into underlying layer results in the reducing of equivalent modulus of the system.

When a long pile is interacting with the soil, the combined force applied to the pile head is distributed among the side face and the pile toe inhomogeneously. The toe gets not more than 30 % from the general force, which doesn’t let using the reserves of the bearing capacity of relatively firm soil under the fifth pile. Account for the depth of the pile toe and the dead load of the soil allows increasing the bearing capacity of the soil under the pile toe and decrease the pile settlement in general. For the quantitative estimation of these factors it is necessary to solve the task on the interaction of the rigid long pile with the surrounding soil, which includes under the pile toe, which is absolutely rigid round stamp.The article presents the formulation and analytical solution to a quantification of the settlement of a circular foundation with the due account for its depth, basing on the development of P. Mindlin’s studies as well as the interactions between a long rigid pile and surrounding soils, including under pile toe.It is proposed to compare the estimated value of stresses under the heel of pile with the initial critical load for the round foundation to check the condition that the estinated value is less than the intial critical one.

An exact analytical model of frequency-variable piezoelectric stack transducers is proposed, and their dynamic characteristics are studied in this article. Based on the linear piezoelasticity theory, the dynamic analytical solution is first derived, and then its correctness is validated by comparing it with the results of a special example in the previous literature and the ones of the experimental study. The effects of the tuning resistance and the layer number of the active element on the dynamic characteristics are discussed. Numerical results show that tuning the resistance and the layer number of the active element can enable the multi-frequency characteristics of the piezoelectric stack transducers. A proper layer number of the active element can minimize the short-circuited resonance frequency and the open-circuited anti-resonance frequency. These findings provide guidelines to design and optimize the piezoelectric stack transducers, which have promising potential in developing the multi-frequency Langevin transducers for some underwater sound and ultrasonic applications, such as ultrasonic cleaning, ultrasonic chemistry, and sonar radiators.

An analytical solution is presented for the borehole problem of an elasto-plastic plane strain body containing a traction-free circular hole and subjected to uniform far field stress. A strain gradient plasticity theory is used to describe the constitutive behavior of the material undergoing plastic deformations, whereas the generalized Hooke’s law is invoked to represent the material response in the elastic region. This gradient plasticity theory introduces a higher-order spatial gradient of the effective plastic strain into the yield condition to account for the nonlocal interactions among material points, while leaving other relations in classical plasticity unaltered. The solution gives explicit expressions for the stress, strain, and displacement components. The hole radius enters these expressions not only in nondimensional forms but also with its own dimensional identity, unlike classical plasticity-based solutions. As a result, the current solution can capture the size effect in a quantitative manner. The classical plasticity-based solution of the borehole problem is obtained as a special case of the present solution. Numerical results for the plastic region radius and the stress concentration factor are provided to illustrate the application and significance of the newly derived solution.
