Experimental Study on Evaluating High-Pile Wharfs for Real Ship Berthing Impact

Article Preview

Abstract:

High-pile wharf is the most frequently used wharf structure form on soil foundation. However, few researches have been conducted to establish field overall evaluation methods capable of determining the berthing capacity of high-pile wharfs. Based on finite element numerical simulation, the stress-deformation relation, and the equations for loading-deflection relation at the pile head are obtained. The method to test the actual berthing capacity for real ship impact on high-pile wharf,as a direct and effective test method,and the security evaluation of high-pile wharf is put forward. These results can be used for reference to test the actual berthing capacity and to evaluate the security of high-pile wharfs.
