Finite Element Analysis of Bridge-Foundation Interaction System under Horizontal Seismic Excitation
Based on Newmark-β gradual integration method and elastic-plastic mechanical theory, numerical analyses of effects of soft soil depth and thickness and pile length on the characteristics of horizontal seismic response of bridge-foundation interaction system with soft layers conducted by using finite element program Midas/GTS. The numerical results show that: (1) The high frequency components of seismic excitations can be filtered and the low frequency components are amplified correspondingly when seismic waves are transmitted through soft soil layer, and thicker and lower soft soil layer can amplified this effects; (2)The extremum force of abutment shows decreases first then increases with depth decreasing, and displacement of abutment top and bottom has the same law with seismic waves, and the thicker and lower soft soil layer or shorter piles can aggravate abutment force and deformation; (3)Shear extremal stress shows decrease from top to bottom and the thicker and lower soft soil layer or shorter piles are adverse on piles; (4)Moment extremal expresses first increase then decrease with pile length and the lower and thicker soft soil layer or shorter piles can enlarged piles moment.
