Abstract:
COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR<br>Nos últimos anos, a aplicação da técnica de redes neurais tem sido difundida em diversas áreas do conhecimento, inclusive na engenharia civil. Em meados da década de 90, iniciaram-se no Brasil estudos no sentido de avaliar a eficiência desta técnica numérica na modelagem do comportamento de solos e na análise de problemas envolvendo engenharia geotécnica. Este trabalho é resultado de parte destes estudos, onde algumas das potencialidades do uso das redes neurais em geotecnia podem ser observadas. São apresentadas três aplicações diferentes de redes neurais feedforward em geotecnia, tendo sido treinadas com o algoritmo LM (Levenberg-Marquardt). A primeira aplicação diz respeito à simulação de resultados de provas de carga dinâmica, analisadas pelo método CAPWAP, através de redes neurais, sendo assim viabilizada a realização de uma pré- análise do comportamento da estaca ainda em campo, o que geralmente não acontece quando se trata da análise CAPWAP tradicional. A segunda aplicação relaciona-se com a análise do comportamento mecânico de dois tipos de solo bastante diferentes entre si: a areia de Ipanema e o solo residual gnáissico do Rio de Janeiro. Para tal, foram utilizados resultados de ensaios de cisalhamento direto, submersos e não submersos, e ensaios de compressão triaxial, drenados e não drenados. A terceira aplicação refere-se à simulação das características do subsolo do sítio da Usina Nuclear Angra 2, localizada no litoral do estado do Rio de Janeiro. As informações disponíveis eram advindas de boletins de sondagens do tipo SPT. Foram realizadas simulações envolvendo a disposição das camadas dos diferentes tipos de solo que poderiam existir no local, o nível de água subterrâneo, a resistência à penetração do solo e a topografia do terreno. Em todos os casos foram obtidos resultados bastante satisfatórios. Portanto, conclui-se que a técnica das redes neurais apresenta grande viabilidade na resolução de problemas geotécnicos de diferentes características, muitas vezes se mostrando tanto ou mais eficiente que as técnicas numéricas tradicionais.<br>During the last years, neural networks applications have been disseminated in many knowledge areas, including civil engineering. In the middle 90`s, a research work had been started in Brazil, in order to investigate the efficiency of neural networks in the analysis of soil behavior and problems involving geotechnical engineering. This thesis is the result of part of these studies, where some potentialities of neural networks technique are presented. Three different feedforward NNs applications in geotechnical engineering are presented. Levenberg- Marquardt algorithm was used for training. The first application is the simulation of results of dynamic pile tests, obtained from CAPWAP analysis, showing that it is possible to do a field pre-analysis of the pile behavior, which is still unpracticable when the traditional CAPWAP method is used. The second application is related to the study of two different soils behavior:sand from Ipanema and residual gnaissic soil from Rio de Janeiro. Results of submerged and non submerged direct shear tests and drained and undrained triaxial compression tests were used. The third application involves the simulation of subsoil characteristics of Angra 2 Nuclear Power Plant site. The available information came from SPT bulletins. Simulations involving several types of soil layers spatial distribution, water level position, penetration strength of soils and local topography were performed. The obtained results were very satisfactory. It can be concluded that the neural networks technique presents great applicability in resolution of geotechnical problems with different characteristics, showing an efficiency as good or even better than other traditional numerical techniques.<br>En los últimos anos, la aplicación de técnicas de redes neurales se ha difundido en diversas áreas del conocimento, incluso en la ingeniería civil.

Abstract:
Oxidation of pyrite can significantly affect properties and the behavior of soil and rock in civil construction. Problems with pyritic rock and soil extend globally and across many disciplines. Consequences of pyrite oxidation include heave, concrete degradation, steel corrosion, environmental damage, acid mine drainage, and accelerated weathering of rock with concomitant effects on strength and stability. Affected disciplines include soil science, mining, engineering geology, geochemistry, environmental engineering, and geotechnical engineering. <p> While pyrite problems may be well known in their respective disciplines, there has been to date relatively little cross-disciplinary communication regarding problems with pyritic geomaterials. Thus, there is a need to establish an inter-disciplinary and inter-regional awareness regarding the effects of pyrite oxidation and their prevention or mitigation. <p> This engineering research is a compilation of information about geotechnical problems and engineering behavior of pyritic rock and soil, the underlying physicochemical processes, site investigation strategies, and known problematic formations. Several case histories documenting consequences of pyrite oxidation are provided. The results of chemical analyses performed on pyritic shale samples from a formation with acknowledged heave problems are presented. Digital data and ESRIâ s ArcGIS digital mapping program were used to create maps showing results of sampling and testing performed during this study. Appendices include mitigation options, results of a practitioner survey, chemical test procedures, a glossary, a visual identification key for sulfidic geomaterials, and a summary table of the literature review for this research.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
The research carried out in this thesis has concentrated on the application of numerical solutions to geotechnical penetration problems in offshore engineering. Several important issues closely relevant to deep-water oil and gas developments were investigated, covering installation of suction caisson foundations, interpretation of fullflow penetrometers and shallow penetration of a cylindrical object (submarine pipeline or T-bar), all in clayey sediments such as are often encountered in deep-water sites. These problems are commonly characterised by large vertical movements of structural elements relative to the seabed. A large deformation finite element method was adopted and further developed to simulate these challenging problems, referred to as Remeshing and Interpolation Technique with Small Strain. In this approach, a sequence of small strain Lagrangian increments, remeshing and interpolation of stresses and material properties are repeated until the required displacement has been reached. This technique is able to model relative motion between the penetrating objects and the soil, which is critical for evaluating soil heave inside the caissons, the effect of penetration-induced remoulding on the resistance of full-flow penetrometers, and influence of soil surface heave on the embedment of pipelines. '...' Simple expressions were presented allowing the resistance factors for the T-bar and ball penetrometers to be expressed as a function of the rate and strain-softening parameters. By considering average strength conditions during penetration and extraction of these full-flow penetrometers, an approximate expression was derived that allowed estimation of the hypothetical resistance factor with no strain-softening, and hence an initial estimate of the stain-rate dependency of the soil. Further simulations of cyclic penetration tests showed that a cyclic range of three diameters of the penetrometers was sufficient to avoid overlap of the failure mechanism at the extremes and mid-point of the cyclic range. The ball had higher resistance factors compared with the T-bar, but with similar cyclic resistance degradation curves, which could be fitted accurately by simple expressions consistent with the strain-softening soil model adopted. Based on the curve fitting, more accurate equations were proposed to deduce the resistance factor with no strain-softening, compared with that suggested previously based on the resistances measured in the first cycle of penetration and extraction. The strain-rate dependency was similar in intact or post-cyclic soil for a given rate parameter. The resistance factor for the post-cyclic condition was higher than that for the initial conditions, to some degree depending upon soil sensitivity and brittleness parameter. For the shallow penetration of a cylindrical object, the penetration resistance profile observed from centrifuge model tests was very well captured by the numerical simulation. The mechanism of shear band shedding was reproduced by the numerical technique, although the frequency of the shear band generation and the exact shape of the heave profile were not correctly captured, which were limited by the simple strainsoftening soil model adopted.

Abstract:
Bond degradation is an irreversible phenomenon that, experimentally, appears to be controlled by plastic strain accumulation. Conventional constitutive soil models do not capture the effects of small strain non‐linearity, recent stress history as well as material structure and its consequent reduction due to bond degradation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the behaviour of a constitutive model that describes the initial structure, on various geotechnical problems. The kinematic hardening structured constitutive model (Rouainia and Muir Wood, 2000) ,formulated within a framework of kinematic hardening and bounding surface plasticity, was implemented into the PLAXIS Finite Element Analysis software package and was used to simulate a variety of boundary value problems. The implementation of the model was validated through a number of single finite element analyses of laboratory tests on natural clay from the Vallericca valley in Italy. The model was further adopted in the finite element analyses of geotechnical problems. The first of these simulated the Self Boring Pressuremeter test in London Clay, with the main focus being the characterisation of the degree of initial structure of London clay, as well as identifying the effect of structure related parameters. The premise that the SBPM is installed without damage was also investigated. The second boundary value problem involved the 2D and 3Danalysis of an embankment situated on soft structured clay in Saint Alban, Canada. The numerical predictions of pore‐water pressures and settlements are also compared with field measurements. The model developed in this work was then adopted in the study of the behaviour of a deep excavation located in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. The numerical simulations were aimed to demonstrate that the added features of the model implemented in this work such as small strain stiffness, structure and anisotropy are vital components to give a good prediction. Comparison of the predicted wall profiles, time dependent dissipation of excess pore water pressures and associated ground heave with field data are provided.

Abstract:
Nowadays, thanks to the increase of computers capability to solve huge and complex problems, and also thanks to the endless effort of the geotechnical community to define better and more sophisticated constitutive models, the challenge to predict and simulate soil behavior has been eased. However, due to the increase in that sophistication, the number of parameters that define the problem has also increased. Moreover, frequently, some of those parameters do not have a real geotechnical meaning as they just come from mathematical expressions, which makes them difficult to identify. As a consequence, more effort has to be placed on parameters identification in order to fully define the problem. This thesis aims to provide a methodology to facilitate the identification of parameters of soil constitutive models by backanalysis. The best parameters are defines as those that minimize an objective function based on the differences between measurements and computed values. Different optimization techniques have been used in this study, from the most traditional ones, such as the gradient based methods, to the newest ones, such as adaptive genetic algorithms and hybrid methods. From this study, several recommendations have been put forward in order to take the most advantage of each type of optimization technique. Along with that, an extensive analysis has been carried out to determine the influence on soil parameters identification of what to measure, where to measure and when to measure in the context of tunneling. The Finite Element code Plaxis has been used as a tool for the direct analysis. A FORTRAN code has been developed to automate the entire backanalysis procedure. The Hardening Soil Model (HSM) has been adopted to simulate the soil behavior. Several soil parameters of the HSM implemented in Plaxis, such as E_50^ref, E_ur^ref, c and f, have been identified for different geotechnical scenarios. First, a synthetic tunnel case study has been used to analyze all the different approaches that have been proposed in this thesis. Then, two complex real cases of a tunnel construction (Barcelona Metro Line 9) and a large excavation (Girona High-Speed Railway Station) have been presented to illustrate the potential of the methodology. Special focus on the influence of construction procedures and instruments error structure has been placed for the tunnel backanalysis, whereas in the station backanalysis, more effort has been devoted to the potential of the concept of adaptive design by backanalysis. Moreover, another real case, involving a less conventional geotechnical problem, such as Mars surface exploratory rovers, has been also presented to test the backanalysis methodology and the reliability of the Wong & Reece wheel-terrain model; widely adopted by the terramechanics community, but nonetheless, still not fully accepted when analyzing lightweight rovers as the ones that have been used in recent Mars exploratory missions.<br>Actualmente, gracias al aumento de la capacidad de los ordenadores para resolver problemas grandes y complejos, y gracias también al gran esfuerzo de la comunidad geotécnica de definir mejores y más sofisticados modelos constitutivos, se ha abordado el reto de predecir y simular el comportamiento del terreno. Sin embargo, debido al aumento de esa sofisticación, también ha aumentado el número de parámetros que definen el problema. Además, frecuentemente, muchos de esos parámetros no tienen un sentido geotécnico real dado que vienen directamente de expresiones puramente matemáticas, lo cual dificulta su identificación. Como consecuencia, es necesario un mayor esfuerzo en la identificación de los parámetros para poder definir apropiadamente el problema. Esta tesis pretende proporcionar una metodología que facilite la identificación mediante el análisis inverso de los parámetros de modelos constitutivos del terreno. Los mejores parámetros se definen como aquellos que minimizan una función objetivo basada en la diferencia entre medidas y valores calculados. Diferentes técnicas de optimización han sido utilizadas en este estudio, desde las más tradicionales, como los métodos basados en el gradiente, hasta las más modernas, como los algoritmos genéticos adaptativos y los métodos híbridos. De este estudio, se han extraído varias recomendaciones para sacar el mayor provecho de cada una de las técnicas de optimización. Además, se ha llevado a cabo un análisis extensivo para determinar la influencia sobre qué medir, dónde medir y cuándo medir en el contexto de la excavación de un túnel. El código de Elementos Finitos Plaxis ha sido utilizado como herramienta de cálculo del problema directo. El desarrollo de un código FORTRAN ha sido necesario para automatizar todo el procedimiento de Análisis Inverso. El modelo constitutivo de Hardening Soil ha sido adoptado para simular el comportamiento del terreno. Varios parámetros del modelo constitutivo de Hardening implementado en Plaxis, como E_50^ref, E_ur^ref, c y f, han sido identificados para diferentes escenarios geotécnicos. Primero, se ha utilizado un caso sintético de un túnel donde se han analizado todas las distintas técnicas que han sido propuestas en esta tesis. Después, dos casos reales complejos de una construcción de un túnel (Línea 9 del Metro de Barcelona) y una gran excavación (Estación de Girona del Tren de Alta Velocidad) se han presentado para ilustrar el potencial de la metodología. Un enfoque especial en la influencia del procedimiento constructivo y la estructura del error de las medidas se le ha dado al análisis inverso del túnel, mientras que en el análisis inverso de la estación el esfuerzo se ha centrado más en el concepto del diseño adaptativo mediante el análisis inverso. Además, otro caso real, algo menos convencional en términos geotécnicos, como es la exploración de la superficie de Marte mediante robots, ha sido presentado para examinar la metodología y la fiabilidad del modelo de interacción suelo-rueda de Wong y Reece; extensamente adoptado por la comunidad que trabajo en Terramecánica, pero aún no totalmente aceptada para robots ligeros como los que se han utilizado recientemente en las misiones de exploración de Marte.

Abstract:
Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2017.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 269-281).<br>Although finite element (FE) methods are well established for modeling geotechnical problems in soil masses and soil-structure interaction, most prior research on large deformation problems has been limited to simplified assumptions on drainage conditions and constitutive behavior. This thesis investigates two large deformation problems in soft clay and proposes a methodology for performing coupled flow and deformation analyses with advanced effective stress models. The first part of the research focuses on realistic 3-D finite element analyses (using AbaqusTM Standard) of a conductor (steel pipe pile) embedded within soft marine clay subjected to large lateral deformations caused by drift/drive-off of a drilling vessel. The proposed analyses use coupled pore pressure-displacement procedures together with the MIT-E3 soil model to represent the anisotropic, non-linear and inelastic effective stress-strain-strength properties of deepwater marine sediments with input parameters derived from a series of laboratory element tests performed on reconstituted Gulf of Mexico (GoM) clay. The numerical predictions are evaluated through comparison with experimental results from centrifuge tests with a well-instrumented model conductor. The FE results accurately predict the measured bending moment distribution along the length of the conductor and the spread of plastic strains within the conductor itself. The study has also shown the effects of soil behavior on local pile-soil interactions, enabling simplified analyses using macro-elements. The FE results have been used to calibrate input parameters for BWGG framework (Gerolymos & Gazetas, 2005), the Bouc-Wen (BW) model extended by Gerolymos and Gazetas (GG), that simulates generalized hysteretic pile-soil interactions and allows for degradation in soil resistance associated with geometric non-linearities. The second application considers the effects of partial drainage for large deformation, quasi-static piezocone penetration in clay. The proposed axisymmetric FE analysis procedure introduces automated remeshing and solution mapping technique (similar to RITSS; Hu & Randolph, 1998) within a commercial FE solver. We have analyzed the penetration resistance for a piezocone device using two elasto-plastic soil models (MCC, MIT-E3) and the recent elasto-viscoplastic MIT-SR soil model (Yuan, 2016) over a range of steady penetration velocities. The MCC predictions are in very good agreement with laboratory measurements of tip resistance and penetration pore pressures measured in centrifuge model tests in reconstituted kaolin. The results from more advanced soil models illustrate the impacts of anisotropic, rate dependent soil behavior on penetration tests in natural clays and are within the range of empirical measurements. The proposed analyses provide a complete framework that can now be used to investigate effects of partial drainage that occurs in piezocone tests for soils (such as silts) of intermediate permeability.<br>by Zhandos Y.

Abstract:
This article analyses the formation of soil properties and the behaviour of buildings in Tartu Old Town. For assessing this, data was gathered from settled constructions, which showed that geotechnical actions change the properties of fluvial sediments variously and as such need thorough research. The preservation of wood used in foundations depends on their placement in geological layers, on the fluctuations of surface water and the geotechnical solutions used. The effects of geotechnical actions conducted before need more attention and therefore new projectsolutions in Tartu Old Town need thorough geotechnical research in each case.
