柱板式挡土墙面板后土压力有限元分析

FEM analysis on the earth pressure behind the panel of post-panel retaining wall

采用三维有限元分析方法对柱板式挡土墙面板后土压力进行数值计算。计算中选用了8结点等参单元,混凝土采用各向同性线弹性本构模型,土体则采用弹塑性模型,其屈服准则采用D-P准则,引入刚塑性接触面模型,以模拟混凝土和土体之间的相互作用。研究表明面板后土压力与经典土压力理论有较大差别,其分布接近一抛物线。根据有限元分析,提出了一个用于柱板式挡土墙面板后土压力计算的修正公式,按此进行工程设计,将更趋经济、合理。

the distribution of earth pressure behind the panel of post-panel retaining wall is analyzed with 3-D FEM. Eight-crunode isoparametric element is adopted, concrete is regarded as linear elastic object, soil is regarded as elastic-plastic object, an interface model is introduced to simulate the interaction between concrete and soil.It is demonstrated that the earth pressure behind the panel of post-panel retaining wall is greatly different from the classical earth pressure theory, its distribution is close to a parabola. Based on FEM analysis, a modified formula is induced to calculate the earth pressure behind the panel of post-panel retaining wall, the engineering design by this modified formula will be more economical and reasonable.
