| description | Abstract To adapt to higher and steeper slope environments, this paper proposes a new type of support structure called an anchored frame pile. The study designed and conducted a series of shaking table tests with three-way loading. The acceleration field of the slope, bedrock and overburden layer vibration variability, Fourier spectra, pile dynamic earth pressure, anchor cable force, and damage were analyzed in detail. The results indicate that the overall effectiveness of anchored frame piles for slope reinforcement is superior, and the synergistic impact of front and back piles is evident. Anchor cables effectively reduce the variability of bedrock and overburden layer vibrations. A zone of acceleration concentration always exists at the shoulder of a slope under seismic action. The dominant Fourier frequency in the Y direction of the slope is 11.7687 Hz under Wolong seismic, and the high-frequency vibrations of the upper overburden layer are significantly stronger than those of the bedrock. Slopes under 0.4 g earthquakes first form cracks at the top and then expand downward through them. Under seismic action, the peak dynamic earth pressure in front of the front pile occurs near the bottom of the pile, and the dynamic earth pressure behind the pile occurs near the slip surface. The peak dynamic earth pressure of the back pile occurs at the top of the bedrock. The slope damage is significant at 0.6 g. At this point, the peak dynamic soil pressure at the top of the front pile measures 9.5 kPa, while the peak dynamic soil pressure at the bottom reaches 24.3 kPa. Below the sliding surface of the front pile and on top of the bedrock of the back pile are the critical areas for prevention and control. Elevating the prestressing of the anchor cables will help enhance the synergy between the anchor cables and the piles. Simultaneously, it will reduce the variability of vibration in the bedrock and overburden, thereby improving the stability of the slopes. |
