As a new bracing structure, the framed anti-sliding piless based on spatial framework structure, which have the advantages of less displacement in the top of the piles and large anti-force, are developed as a new retaining structure, and can be used to reduce the piles deformation. However, the previous calculation models of double-row piles ignored the deformation coordination action between linking beams and ring beams, the interaction between piles and beams. Further more the calculation results based on the models are not accurate enough. In this paper, a spatial force model of the framed anti-sliding piles is presented. Taking framed anti-sliding piles as a single-layer multi-span frame affected by piles, beams and soils, the spatial synergic interaction between top ring beam and linking beam, as well as the affection of soil-arch on the frame are analyzed. The horizontal displacement in front of the framed anti-sliding piles and distribution of axial force and moment of piles are studied by Finite element method. The results reflect commendably the stress and distortion character of the framed anti-sliding piles. Finally, some rules about the pile-beam-soil interaction in the pile structure are summarized.

Based on the actual project, the influence of geogrid on the stability of the retaining wall of the single-layer masonry reinforced retaining wall is studied through field test and finite element software ABAQUS numerical simulation. The influence of geogrid on the stability of the retaining wall was determined by analyzing the changes in the pressure of the backfill, the displacement of the retaining wall and the strain of the geogrid, and changing the length and spacing of the geogrid through the controlled variable method. The results show that the geogrid can limit the horizontal displacement of the soil, balance the earth pressure, and improve the overall stability of the retaining wall. By increasing the length of the geogrid and reducing the distance of the geogrid, the design of the retaining wall is optimized, which has good economic and time benefits.

Mechanical and deformation characteristics of pile-anchor retaining structure was analyzed by using numerical simulation method. The rationality of numerical model was also verified through comparing measured data in field test and numerical results. On the basis of this numerical model, Mechanical and deformation characteristics of pile-anchor retaining structure under three different construction procedures were analyzed individually. The results show that: the maximum horizontal displacement of pile is controlled effectively by applying anchoring force, and the global horizontal displacement of pile increases as well. Forced state of pile is changed from being bended on one side to being bended on both sides, and maximum moment value decreases heavily. Therefore, anchor cable reinforcement should be arranged at the head of construction procedure of pile-anchor retaining structure. The later anchoring force be applied, the closer inflection point nears the pile top.

Auxiliary pile group closed to foundation pit can improve the stiffness of soil mass and decrease foundation pit’s transformation effectively to guarantee foundation pit’s stability. Drucker-Prager model is used and matched with Mohr-Coulomb model’s circumcircle, which can solve the problems of uncertain viscoplasticity strain rate and discontinuous in cones vertex, compared with Mohr-Coulomb model. Also, numerical simulation software FLAC3D is applied to help analyze foundation pit’s horizontal displacement caused by auxiliary pile group, and sensitivity analysis is done about pile spacing and stiffness. The calculation results compared with monitoring data show that Drucker-Prager model is appropriate to simulate foundation pit. Stiffness of soil mass can be improved obviously by auxiliary pile group. Auxiliary pile group of CFG mainly reduce foundation pit’s upper horizontal displacement while bored piles mainly cut down deep layer’s horizontal displacement of soil mass. The results can provide references to both design and management of foundation pit.

This paper considers the issues of numerical modeling of nonstationary spatial gas dynamics in the pre-nozzle volume of the combustion chamber of a power plant with a cylindrical slot channel at the power plant of the mass supply surface. The numerical simulation for spatial objects is based on the solution conjugate problem of heat exchange by the control volume method in the open integrated platform for numerical simulation of continuum mechanics problems (openFoam). The calculation results for gas-dynamic and thermal processes in the power plant with a four-nozzle cover are presented. The analysis of gas-dynamic parameters and thermal flows near the nozzle cover, depending on the canal geometry, is given. The topological features of the flow structure and thermophysical parameters near the nozzle cap were studied. For the first time, the transformation of topological features of the flow structure in the pre-nozzle volume at changes in the mass channel’s geometry is revealed, described, and analyzed. The dependence of the Nusselt number in the central point of stagnation on the time of the power plants operation is revealed.

The 3-D unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-tokes equations based on the pseudo-homogeneous flow theory and a vapor fraction transport-equation that accounts for non-condensable gas are solved to simulate cavitating flow in a Francis turbine. The calculation results agreed with experiment data reasonably. With the decrease of the Thoma number, the cavity first appears near the centre of the hub. At this stage the flow rate and the efficiency change little. Then the cavity near the centre of the hub grows thick and the cavities also appear on the blade suction side near outlet. With further reduce of the Thoma number the cavitation extends to the whole flow path, which causes flow rate and efficiency decrease rapidly.

In view of the rotor icing problems, the influence of centrifugal force on rotor blade icing is investigated. A numerical simulation method of three-dimensional rotor blade icing is presented. Body-fitted grids around the rotor blade are generated using overlapping grid technology and rotor flow field characteristics are obtained by solving N-S equations. According to Eulerian two-phase flow, the droplet trajectories are calculated and droplet impingement characteristics are obtained. The mass and energy conservation equations of ice accretion model are established and a new calculation method of runback water mass based on shear stress and centrifugal force is proposed to simulate water flow and ice shape. The calculation results are compared with available experimental results in order to verify the correctness of the numerical simulation method. The influence of centrifugal force on rotor icing is calculated. The results show that the flow direction and distribution of liquid water on rotor surfaces change under the action of centrifugal force, which lead to the increasing of icing at the stagnation point and the decreasing of icing on both frozen limitations.

Supporting Structure

The double-row piles supporting structure is a new type of supporting and protecting for deep foundation excavation. It is widely used to in design of deep foundation pit. Now how to simply and effectively design the structure of double-row piles is in a research and discuss stage. Using the Midas GTS finite element method, the displacement and stress distribution of double-row piles in the different stages of excavation are obtained, and the horizontal displacement and stress distribution of double-row piles in the different stages of excavation are calculated. The results of Midas GTS finite element analysis as follows: (1) after the excavation of foundation pit, the horizontal displacement of pile-top is maximum. The horizontal displacement decreases gradually with depth increases. And the displacement of front row piles is larger than that of back row piles; (2) the maximum shear stress is at the distance 5m to the foundation basement. The higher bending moment at the pile-top and the distance 10m to the foundation basement are consistent with the actual monitoring date. (3) the results of finite element analysis is close to the Richard software and actual monitoring data. It is show that using the finite element analysis to analyze the double-row piles supporting structure with is veritable and credible.
