Analysis of Group Pile Bearing Modes of Permeable Pile Dam with Different Incoming Flow Angles

Based on ABAQUS finite element analysis software, the group piles and single piles under different incoming flow angles are compared and calculated, the horizontal bearing characteristics of the group piles of permeable pile dam under different incoming flow angles are analyzed, the pile-soil force is solved, and the change rules of the load-displacement characteristics, the displacement distribution of the pile body, and the distribution of the pile body bending moment are analyzed in detail. The study shows that: for the group piles with flow angles of 0° and 45°, the stresses from the upstream piles to the downstream piles tend to increase along the flow direction, and a stress concentration occurs at the downstream pile; for the group piles with flow angles of 90°, the stresses gradually increase from the central pile to the piles on both sides, and the stress concentration area is distributed at the outermost pile. With the increase of the incoming flow angle, the horizontal bearing capacity of the whole group of piles shows an increasing trend, but due to the effect of the group piles, the bearing capacity of the unit piles is smaller than that of the single piles; The displacements of the group piles at different incoming flow angles were greater than those of the single piles, and the turning points were all at about 12 m below the mud surface; With the increase of incoming flow angle, the group pile starts to change from rigid deformation to flexible deformation, the maximum bending moment of the pile body decreases, and the maximum value of the bending moment of the pile body occurs at the burial depth of 5 m. The maximum value of the bending moment of the pile body decreases with the increase of incoming flow angle.
