摘要

The paper reports results of finite element analyses undertaken toprovide insight into spudcan foundation behaviour during undrainedvertical penetration through a thin stronger clay layer into weakermaterial, varying the thickness of the upper crust layer relative to thespudcan diameter between 0.17 and 0.5, the strength ratio between 0.2and 0.6 and the normalised strength gradient of the lower layer between0 and 1. The analysis was carried out using a large deformation finiteelement (LDFE) approach, modifying the simple elastic-perfectlyplastic Tresca soil model to allow strain softening, and incorporatestrain rate dependency of the shear strength. Attention was focused onrelatively thin layers, extending previous work that has looked atthicker layers. Discussion focuses chiefly on the effect of (thin) crustthickness ratio, strength ratio and strength non-homogeneity on the soildeformation mechanisms and the form of the penetration resistanceprofile, with emphasis on the likelihood and severity of punch-throughfailure. The potential for punch-through was demonstrated by a localmaximum in penetration resistance followed by some reduction. Thedegree of bearing capacity reduction with penetration, that is theseverity of punch-through, increased with increasing crust layerthickness and decreasing strength ratio between lower and upper soillayer, but decreased with increasing strength gradient of the lowerlayer. The LDFE results were shown to be consistent with results fromcentrifuge tests. While the recently developed mechanism based designapproaches provided excellent prediction, the approaches suggested inoffshore design guidelines was shown to underestimate the penetrationresistance significantly and give poor estimate of the likelihood andseverity of spudcan punch-through.
