| 英文摘要 | A transmission tower foundation embedded in frozen soil is subject to both the wind-induced uplift and frost heave forces. The frost heave results in an upward force acting on the foundation, while additional stress induced by the structure load may compress the underlying soils. The freezing- and thawing-induced deformations tend to cause further structural loads and lead to instability problems within the structure. To evaluate the engineering risk and ensure the safety of the Qinghai-Tibet Power Transmission Line (QTPTL) system, stress sensors were installed at the bases of two test tower foundations to investigate the stress state of the tower foundations. Using data on air and ground temperatures, and the deformation of tower foundations, we analyzed the stress variation, and the causes were discussed here. The results showed that the stresses at the bases of tower foundations had a close relationship with air and ground temperatures. The cooling of the underlying soils led to the occurrence of frost heave, which pushed the foundations upward and caused a significant stress bulb under the bases of tower foundations. Seasonal variations in the contact stress depended on the seasonal freezing and thawing of foundation soil. The contact stress increased with the cooling of the underlying soils and decreased with the warming of the underlying soils. The results also showed that the contact stress was free of the wind influence, i.e., the wind-induced uplift force was minor for the contact stress. To fully understand the influences of freezing and thawing on the stress state of tower foundations, a thermal-elasto-plastic finite element model for the tower foundation-soil system was established, and the stresses and deformations of a tower foundation subject to frost heave and thaw settlement were simulated. The results showed that the frost heave force induced by soil freezing potentially threatens the safety and normal operation of the QTPTL. Thaw settlement may lead to harmful deformation of tower foundations if global warming is considered in the numerical model. The remedial measure with thermosyphons only can reduce the settlement of the foundation and will increase the frost jacking risk of the foundation. 2015. |
