Abstract
In this paper, the one-dimensional rheological consolidation characteristics of multilayered saturated soil foundations under time-dependent loading and heating are investigated by considering the semi-permeability and the interface thermal resistance. By introducing the fractional derivative model and the thermos-elastic theory, a thermo-mechanical coupling model is established to describe the rheological properties of saturated soils. Semi-analytical solutions for strain, temperature increment, pore water pressure and settlement were derived through the Laplace transform and its inverse. The accuracy of the solutions proposed in this paper has been verified by comparing with existing solutions. The effects of different thermal contact models of the interface on the rheological properties of saturated soils under semi-permeable boundary are discussed, and the effects of fractional derivative order, constitutive material parameters, and thermal conductivity of soil on the thermal consolidation process are investigated. The results show that: neglecting the thermal resistance effect can result in an overestimates of the impact of rheological properties on the thermal consolidation process of saturated soils under semi-permeable boundaries; As the thermal resistance coefficient increases, the influence of soil thermal conductivity on settlement decreases.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal is to publish research results of the highest quality and of lasting importance on the subject of geomechanics, with the focus on applications to geological energy production and storage, and the interaction of soils and rocks with the natural and engineered environment. Special attention is given to concepts and developments of new energy geotechnologies that comprise intrinsic mechanisms protecting the environment against a potential engineering induced damage, hence warranting sustainable usage of energy resources.
The scope of the journal is broad, including fundamental concepts in geomechanics and mechanics of porous media, the experiments and analysis of novel phenomena and applications. Of special interest are issues resulting from coupling of particular physics, chemistry and biology of external forcings, as well as of pore fluid/gas and minerals to the solid mechanics of the medium skeleton and pore fluid mechanics. The multi-scale and inter-scale interactions between the phenomena and the behavior representations are also of particular interest. Contributions to general theoretical approach to these issues, but of potential reference to geomechanics in its context of energy and the environment are also most welcome.
