The effects of pile diameter, the property of pile end bearing stratum, the material parameters of pile shaft and the changes of pile length on the bearing performance of extra-long and large-diameter single pile were examined with the finite element software ABAQUS to make the numerical simulation analysis, by establishing the overall axial symmetry model, which was based on the data of static load test of single pile at the Yellow River Bridge site. The results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of single pile, the stiffness and the end resistance ratio would increase gradually, whereas the compression settlement ratio decreases slowly; the pile end grouting can significantly increase the ultimate loads, and therefore, improve the bearing performance of piles, but it has little effect on the stiffness of pile when loading was smaller; the elastic modulus of pile shaft has no effect on the ultimate bearing capacity of friction piles, little on the end resistance ratio, while the pile compression settlement ratio would gradually decrease and the stiffness would increased with the increase of the elastic modulus of pile shaft, and this increase of stiffness would slow down with the increase of elastic modulus of pile shaft; it is unreasonable to improve the ultimate bearing capacity of extra-long single pile only by means of increasing the pile length.

Based on the theoretical analysis results, the bearing behavior of squeezed and branch pile under vertical load and lateral load was analyzed in this paper. The mean works include the influence of vertical load on the pile lateral bearing capacity and influence of the lateral load on the vertical load bearing capacity. The factors influence the bearing capacity of pile such as elastic modulus of soil around and under pile bottom, pile length, plate position are also analyzed.

The foundation of LiShuiGou Aqueduct of ShiMen Reservoir is composed of long-short and large diameter piles, with great diameter and length differences between these new and old piles. Numerical simulation of the FEM software ADINA and the orthogonal experimental design theory are applied to explore the sensitivity of long-short pile foundation settlement, under different pile length, pile diameter, pile space, and soil constitutive model, with foundation settlement as the evaluation index. The results show that the descending order of the sensitivity of four factors is: pile length > pile diameter > pile space > soil constitutive mode. Some scientific and rational approaches and basis are consequently provided to explore the most effective reinforcement measures and design method for long-short and large diameter piles.

The paper proposed a new reinforcement technique-planting steel technique. By numerical simulation analysis of planting steel, the load – slip curve, the load – stress curve and others were obtained. Meanwhile, ultimate bearing capacity of angle was calculated, and the ultimate bearing capacities with the same model at different anchorage depths were compared. With the anchorage depth increased, the ultimate bearing capacity increased too. But while the anchorage depth increased to a certain value, the ultimate bearing capacity no longer increased. All these provided a theoretical basis for the engineering application of planting steel technique.

In the paper, according to the definition of the effective length and criterion of the effective length of the single pile, using the numerical method to simulate the foundation of drilling hole perfusion of single pile under vertical load pile settlement and deformation of pile body, based on the way of combining the ultimate bearing capacity and settlement control of pile top, the pile efficiency coefficient of the effective pile length is determined in certain conditions, and also the effective length of single pile. Then, the more reasonable theoretical basis is provided for engineering design and construction.

In order to solve the insufficient bearing capacity of the large-diameter circular steel tube K-Joints, the chord in the joint zone is filled with the concrete. The reinforcement of bearing capacity that the concrete makes to K-Joints is researched with the finite element numerical simulation method, in consideration of the material nonlinearity and the geometric nonlinearity. The numerical computation of bearing behavior is employed to eighteen groups of the large-diameter circular steel tube K-Joints and reinforced ones with the concrete (RK-Joints). The failure styles and the influencing factors of bearing capacity are analyzed with RK-Joints. The result shows that the bearing capacity of K-Joints is enhanced significantly by the concrete filled in the chord in the joint zone. The load-deformation curves reveal the changing regularity that the bearing capacity of joint follows the relevant parameters. It can provide reference for the engineering application of RK-Joints.

It is difficult and important to accurately calculate single pile ultimate bearing capacity during pile foundation design. Typical computational methods on single pile ultimate bearing capacity are contrastively analyzed in this paper. Contact element method on single pile ultimate bearing capacity is relatively accurate and economical, but it isn’t used in practical projects until now because its computational process is complicated. 343 different single pile ultimate bearing capacities are calculated with the contact element method in order to study a simple computational formula based on the contact element method. All data calculated are analyzed with a linear recursive multi-analysis program which is programmed with Fortran90. A simple computational formula on the contact element method is presented based on the analysis results. The simple computational formula, the experiential formula in the code, the contact element method and the static load experiment method are respectively used to calculate single pile ultimate bearing capacity in two practical projects in order to test the simple computational formula. The results show that the simple computational formula is relatively accurate. Some advice is presented based on the analysis results.

In order to explore the influence of internal water on the seismic response of hydraulic tunnel, the combined mechanical analysis models of multimaterial including surrounding rock, lining structure, and internal water are built. Based on the explicit central difference method, the dynamic finite element analysis methods for rock, lining, and water are discussed, respectively. The dynamic contact force method is used to simulate the rock-lining contact interaction, and the arbitrary Lagrange-Euler (ALE) method is used to simulate the lining-water coupling interaction. Then a numerical simulation analysis method for combined seismic response of rock-lining-water system in hydraulic tunnel is proposed, and the detailed solving steps are given. This method is used to study the seismic stability characteristics of the water diversion tunnel in a hydropower station, and the displacement, stress, and damage failure characteristics of the lining structure under the conditions of no water, static water, and dynamic water are comparatively analyzed. The results show that the hydrostatic pressure restricts the seismic response of the lining, while the hydrodynamic pressure exacerbates its seismic response and leads to damage, separation, and slip failure appearing on the haunch, which can provide a scientific reference for the seismic design of hydraulic tunnel with high water head and large diameter.
