Description
Summary:This study summarizes the engineering design and calculation methods of micropiles and proposes a pile length optimization model based on numerical simulation software. Based on the proposed micropile calculation method and optimization method, a specific analysis of a project example was carried out, and a series of calculations, such as micropile design calculation and pile length optimization for the project, was completed. The results show that the miniature pile length optimization model based on numerical simulation finite difference method improves the previous method by automating the optimization process through fast modeling, automatic creation of optimization commands, and output and analysis of optimization results, and realizes the optimization of pile length using numerical simulation, which improves the efficiency of the optimization of the pile length under the premise of guaranteeing accuracy, and achieves the unity of both efficiency and accuracy. The feasibility of this optimization process is proved by engineering examples. The engineering practicability of the micropile design calculation method and optimization method proposed in this study is proved through practice. It provides a reference value for the initial fast and flexible management of small landslides.
