Description
Summary:The stability mechanism of large-diameter steel cylinder under fill load has not yet formed a complete theory. In order to calculate the stability of the steel cylinder island arm structure in a certain project, the limit equilibrium and finite element method are used in this paper. The limit equilibrium method is based on the limit equilibrium of the soil inside and outside the steel cylinder, taking into account the earth pressure and friction force on the cylinder, and using moment equilibrium to calculate its stability coefficient. Secondly, the finite element strength reduction method is adopted to analyze the stability of the steel cylinder island arm structure by using strength parameters to correlate with the temperature field and changing the boundary conditions of the temperature field. The results and analysis methods of this paper provide references for the construction and design of the same type of projects.
