摘要
由于浅层空洞的顶板或顶板侧面破裂,地面塌陷经常发生,但考虑这两种类型的塌陷的分析解决方案仍然是一个挑战,而且没有考虑到浅层土壤的非饱和特性。本研究提出了非饱和土壤中浅层矩形空洞坍塌的分析解决方案。提出了区分深腔和浅腔的临界覆盖深度。结果表明,浅层空洞的坍塌类型(顶面或顶面-侧面)取决于坍塌时的宽度。塌陷宽度随母吸力的变化很大,表现出两种模式:增大和稳定,或增大、减小和稳定。塌陷宽度随垫吸力的变化趋势与表观内聚力的变化趋势一致,当拟合参数 n 相对较大(如 n = 3 或 4)时,塌陷宽度在进气量值附近达到峰值。空气进入值影响的是变化曲线的大小而不是形状。此外,覆盖层深度较小的浅空洞倾向于顶板破坏,而覆盖层深度较大的空洞,尤其是高度较大的空洞,更容易发生顶板-侧面破坏。增加地表附加荷载可减小坍塌宽度,使坍塌趋向于顶面破坏,尤其是在粘聚力或内摩擦角较低的情况下。
An upper-bound solution for ground collapse induced by shallow rectangular cavity in unsaturated soils
Ground collapse occurs frequently due to the roof or roof–sides breakdown of shallow cavities, but analytical solutions considering both types of failures remains a challenge and without incorporating the unsaturated characteristics of shallow soils. This study presents an analytical solution for the collapse of shallow rectangular cavities in unsaturated soils. Proposing a critical cover depth to differentiate deep and shallow cavities. Results show that the collapse type (roof or roof–sides) in shallow cavities depends on the width at collapse. It varies significantly with matric suction, displaying two patterns: increasing and stabilizing, or increasing, decreasing and stabilizing. The variation trend of width at collapse with matric suction aligns with that of apparent cohesion, with a peak near the air-entry value when the fitting parameter n is relatively large (such as n = 3 or 4). The air-entry value influences the magnitude rather than the shape of the variation curves. Additionally, shallow cavities with small cover depths tend toward roof failure, while those with large cover depths, especially with significant height, are more prone to roof–sides failure. Increasing surface surcharge can reduce collapse width, shifting towards roof–sides failure, especially with low cohesion or internal friction angle.
期刊介绍:
The Canadian Geotechnical Journal features articles, notes, reviews, and discussions related to new developments in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering, and applied sciences. The topics of papers written by researchers and engineers/scientists active in industry include soil and rock mechanics, material properties and fundamental behaviour, site characterization, foundations, excavations, tunnels, dams and embankments, slopes, landslides, geological and rock engineering, ground improvement, hydrogeology and contaminant hydrogeology, geochemistry, waste management, geosynthetics, offshore engineering, ice, frozen ground and northern engineering, risk and reliability applications, and physical and numerical modelling.
Contributions that have practical relevance are preferred, including case records. Purely theoretical contributions are not generally published unless they are on a topic of special interest (like unsaturated soil mechanics or cold regions geotechnics) or they have direct practical value.
