Abstract:Due to the absence of the ground resource, the construction land of the general aerial industry base is planned to get from reclamation in the east of Meishan to construct infrastructures in order to satisfy the functions planning of Meishan. We use the MIKE 21 HD model to simulate the influence on current due to the planned five different reclamation scenarios in the east of Meishan after plugging the Meishan waterway, and make a comparison according to the modeling results. The modeling results reveal that the influence of the planned reclamation project to the larger area tide field is little. Generally speaking, the influence of the first scenario is the least as its reclamation area is the least among the five scenarios. While the fifth scenario has the least influence on the south Chuanshan operation area, as the waterway between Pusheshan mountain and Meishan is not plugged.

Abstract:In combination with the design of waterfront excavation for a ship dock entrance, a twodimensional finite element numerical simulation is conducted to investigate the performance of the retaining structures during the excavating and dewatering process of the dock entrance. The geotechnical analysis program Plaxis 2D is adopted to establish the plain-strain numerical model which takes into account the interaction between the retaining structures and the surrounding strata, different tide levels and wave conditions, on-site topographical and geological conditions, as well as the complicated construction sequences. The numerical results indicate that there are obvious distinctions of the performance of retaining structures between waterfront excavation and conventional onshore excavation. The most disadvantageous construction stage of the waterfront excavation is during the process of dewatering and before the construction of protecting berms outside the retaining steel sheet piles. Tide and wave conditions exert more detrimental impacts on the single-line steel sheet piles than on the doubleline compound steel sheet piles filled with sand. More concerns should be focused on the alteration of the axial force of the first-level struts which may change from compression to subsequent tension; correspondingly, the overall cast-in-situ concrete beams ought to be used for the first-level struts to strengthen the integrative stiffness of the retaining structures.

Considering that the beams on both the front and the back of the pier lies on one axis, we propose a new solution in which the front and the back of the pier are hinged by the dowel bar. Software Easydoing, Robot, etc. are used for the internal force analysis of the pier structure before and after the reconstruction.It is concluded from the analysis and the results of the dowel-bar test site that the new solution of reinforcement and reconstruction can surely improve the stress distribution of the pier structure. The reinforced and reconstructed pile-supported pier can meet the berthing requirement for all vessel types. In addition, the front and the back of the pier being hinged together have the advantages as more construction convenience, shorter construction period, less effect on routine operation and lower cost. The solution proposed also provides a new thought for the design of the reinforcement and reconstruction.
