Abstract:
To investigate the seismic response of the pile-structure system in inclined liquefiable soil under horizontal and vertical coupling excitations, this paper adopted the Biot porous medium theory to simulate the saturated sand as a solid-liquid fully coupled two-phase medium. The multi-yield surface plastic constitutive model was used to simulate the seismic response of the saturated sand. The finite element model of the liquefiable inclined site-pile foundation-bridge structural system was established using OpenSees. The shaking table test results were compared to verify the reliability of the numerical model. On this basis, a numerical model of pile foundation-bridge structural system in typical liquefiable soil was established, and the seismic responses of the system under horizontal one-way and horizontal and vertical coupling earthquakes were discussed. The results indicate that compared with the horizontal single-direction seismic input, the pore water pressure of the liquefiable soil oscillates prominently when the horizontal and vertical seismic coupling acts. Furthermore, the permanent lateral displacement of the liquefiable layer soil increases significantly, especially in the shallow and middle layers of the saturated sandy soil. Under the horizontal and vertical two-way earthquakes, the damage of the pile is more significant, and the vulnerable positions are increased. The maximum curvature of the pile can be increased by 128%. The lateral displacement of the pile in the middle of the liquefiable layer can be increased by about 30%. In addition, increasing the reinforcement ratio of the pile can effectively curb the lateral displacement of soil and reduce the damage degree of the pile. The vertical seismic action increases the inertia effect of the superstructure, increases the peak curvature of the pier bottom by about 100%, and intensifies the damage degree of the pier bottom. Therefore, the seismic design of the pile foundation built in the liquefied lateral expansion site should consider the influence of vertical seismic action. © 2023 Science Press. All rights reserved.
