Reliability Analysis of Foundation Pit Based on Response Surface of Support Vector Machine

Abstract:

Traditional analysis methods of reliability in the foundation pit engineering have larger error and larger amount of calculation. Therefore, the response surface method has attracted much attention because it can effectively use the finite element analysis method (FEAM) and reduce the number of the numerical simulation. This paper combines uniform design (UD) with support vector machine (SVM). On this base, a reliability analysis method of the foundation pit is put forward based on the response surface of support vector machine (RSSVM). The UD structures random samples and the FEAM is used to obtain corresponding response parameters including the lateral displacement of wall, settlement of ground, safety factor of overall stability and safety factor of against overturning. Then, SVM trains the above random samples and corresponding response parameters to get response surface (RS) respectively. The probability density distribution of each response parameter is obtained by combining the Monte Carlo method with RSSVM. The instance analysis shows that the method has high computing efficiency and less amount of calculation, and the result is reasonable. It provides an effective way for the reliability analysis of the foundation pit engineering.
