To enhance simulation efficiency and accuracy, a series of methods were proposed, validated, and applied, including the single‐phase oscillation method, the coarse‐grained method, the porous medium replacement strategy, and a semi‐resolved approach. Numerical simulations were performed to investigate the scour process around a submarine pipeline situated on a slope, specifically examining the effects of slope angle, pipeline suspension height, and wave height. The flow field, forces acting on particles, and particle movement patterns were analyzed. Results indicate that while the slope angle significantly affects the flow pattern, it exerts limited influence on hydrodynamic forces. The decomposition of gravity into components alters the force balance on particles, rendering them more vulnerable to erosion and facilitating downslope transport under wave action.","PeriodicalId":13786,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148675000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A hysteretic retention law is employed, inducing irreversible changes in hydraulic conductivity during wetting–drying cycles. Two soils with different gradings are analysed and, for each of them, the two relative permeability formulations are matched at a reference point so as to represent the same material. Despite this calibration, the corresponding permeability fields differ significantly over the hysteretic domain, by as much as five orders of magnitude. These discrepancies are mostly the consequence of retention hysteresis and are substantially reduced if a unique, non‐hysteretic retention curve is selected. For reference, a slope model with constant permeability, equal to the maximum saturated value, is also evaluated. The magnitude and rate of the slope response to surface perturbations, the number of cycles to restore equilibrium and the characteristics of the steady state regime all depend on the chosen permeability formulation. Slopes with a constant permeability react rapidly and uniformly, whereas slopes with permeability depending on pore water pressure or degree of saturation display slower, more complex and depth‐attenuated responses, particularly for the finer soil. Overall, the results highlight the need for consistent calibration of both relative permeability and retention hysteresis, while underscoring the limitations of constant permeability models in capturing unsaturated seepage, even when appropriate hysteretic retention laws are adopted.","PeriodicalId":13786,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148674997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This resistance significantly reduces fluid seepage velocity, leading to an interfacial flow contact resistance effect. To address this, a flow contact transfer coefficient () and a flow partition coefficient () are introduced to establish a general imperfect flow contact model. This model quantitatively describes the resistance encountered by pore water as it seeps across interface channels. Based on this model, semi‐analytical solutions for pore water pressure, pore air pressure, and foundation settlement of unsaturated‐saturated soil foundations with vertical drains under continuous drainage conditions are derived by employing the Laplace transform and the finite Hankel transform. The consolidation behavior of foundations improved by vertical drains is then systematically investigated. Results indicate that the interfacial flow contact resistance effect significantly impedes pore water discharge, inducing a maximum pore water pressure gradient of 32.2 kPa at the interface. Compared with the complete flow contact model, the proposed model exhibits significant consolidation retardation. Specifically, at a depth of 8m, the initial dissipation of pore water pressure is delayed by approximately 11.1 h, and the complete dissipation period is extended by 46.29 days. Furthermore, under weak radial drainage conditions, the time required to reach a settlement of 183 mm is delayed by approximately 69 days.","PeriodicalId":13786,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics","volume":"157 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148674999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method has been widely applied in the quick evaluation of subgrade stability. However, the interaction between piles and soil, as well as the actual failure modes of composite foundations are neglected. As a result, deviations between the predicted and actual shear strength are often observed. In this study, direct shear tests and discrete element numerical simulations were conducted. The shear mechanical properties of CFG pile composite foundations were systematically investigated from both macroscopic and microscopic perspectives. Based on the findings, a modified equivalent area method was proposed and validated. The results indicate that significant differences in the shear strength and failure mode exist between soft soil and CFG piles. As the replacement area radio increases, the shear strength of the composite foundation significantly increases, and the failure mode of the pile changes accordingly. During shearing, the piles and the surrounding soil gradually form a coherent overall structure that undergoes coordinated deformation and jointly bears the shear load. The piles near the shear direction exhibit denser particle displacement, crack distribution, and bond failure, showing a progressive failure pattern. The shear strength calculated by the modified method is more conservative than that obtained by the equivalent area method. The modified method can more accurately reflect the actual situation of the composite foundation.","PeriodicalId":13786,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148633925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing analytical studies on transient seepage often neglect the backfill grouting layer, leading to overestimated pore pressures and potentially unsafe design assessments. To address this limitation, this study investigates the transient seepage field within a composite “soil‐grouting ring‐lining” system under two scenarios: surface water level fluctuations (SWF) and groundwater level fluctuations (GWF). Based on the decoupled Biot's consolidation theory and the principle of superposition, a rigorous analytical solution is derived. The accuracy and engineering applicability of the proposed method are strictly validated against numerical simulations and field monitoring data from the Qingchun Road Tunnel in Hangzhou, China. Parametric analyses show that increasing grouting ring permeability reduces pore pressure and improves its distribution uniformity. With increasing soil permeability, pore pressure exhibits a three‐stage nonlinear evolution: rapid rise, gradual increase, and decay to zero. Increasing grouting ring thickness effectively decreases pore pressure, and when the grout‐to‐lining thickness ratio is below 0.5, tunnel diameter has negligible influence. Mechanical properties also play a key role: higher grouting stiffness increases pore pressure but stabilizes beyond a modulus ratio of 0.002, while greater soil shear modulus reduces pore pressure. These findings provide a theoretical basis for improved design of underwater tunnels considering grouting effects.","PeriodicalId":13786,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148633927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
