Research on Vertical Bearing Capacity of Pile Foundation under Wave Scouring

In order to analyze the influence of wave scouring on the vertical bearing behavior of the pile foundation, the finite element software ABAQUS was used to simulate the force of the pile foundation under the action of wave scouring. A three-dimensional finite element calculation model of the pile foundation was established according to the actual working conditions, and the calculation results were compared with the field test results to verify the correctness of the built model. Then, the influence of wave scouring depth and pile embedding depth on the vertical bearing behavior of pile foundation was analyzed through calculation examples. The analysis results showed that the greater the depth of wave erosion, the greater the impact on the vertical bearing behavior of the pile foundation. Meanwhile, the smaller the buried depth of the pile body, the greater the impact on the vertical bearing capacity of the pile. Thus, the reduction rate of the vertical bearing capacity under different scouring depths was obtained.
