In this paper, the influence of soil liquefaction on the vertical pressure of submarine pipeline was investigated under the wave loading through the wave flume test. The experiment was set with the same waves on the liquefied seabed and unliquefled seabed respectively, and the current pipeline vertical pressure was measured with the pressure transducers installed on the two opposite directions (i.e., straight up and straight down) at the same cross-section of the pipeline. The results showed that when the seabed was unliquefied, the two pressure curves varied periodically and overlapped completely, reaching the maximum and minimum at the same time respectively, and the resultant pressure fluctuated within a limited range. However, when the seabed was liquefied, the two pressure curves varied periodically, but they did not overlap completely. They did not reach the maximum (minimum) value at the same time either, and the resultant pressure fluctuated within a wider range. The experiment showed that the submarine stood higher resultant pressure in the vertical direction when the seabed was liquefied, which may cause the frequent sinking and fioatation of the pipeline, leading to its fatigue damage.
在黄河口潮坪上选择典型研究区,进行了模拟波浪荷载的现场振动试验,利用轻型静力触探仪测记振动前、振动刚刚结束以及静置一段时间后土体贯入阻力的强度值,研究了海床土强度的丧失、恢复过程及影响因素。研究结果发现:模拟波浪荷载振动导致土体强度丧失发生在海底面下一定深度范围内,强度丧失量和恢复量沿深度呈抛物线型变化。振动后,土体表面排出的水和细粒物质环绕振动点周围形成一系列微型“泥火山”。振动导致土强度最大恢复量值与强度最大丧失量值出现在同一深度处;振动结束 2 h 后,土体强度超过振动前原状土体强度,振动使土体强度丧失与恢复受土体曾经历的水动力作用强弱、振动前土体的原始强度、振动荷载的循环次数、振动能量大小、土体的深度、静置的时间等因素的影响显著。黄河口海床土体强度独特变化规律的成因机理有待进一步研究。
