| description | Anti-sliding short piles, a novel technique for slope stabilization, have been applied in engineering practices. Nonetheless, a mature structural calculation theory for these piles is still lacking. In this paper, the study presents an internal force solution model for anti-sliding short piles using the finite difference method. By extending the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and defining boundary conditions, this study develops a set of finite difference equations for computing the structural forces of anti-sliding short piles. Furthermore, this study conducted laboratory model tests on soil landslide cases reinforced with anti-sliding short piles. By comparing the internal forces and deformations of these piles, the test validates the proposed calculation model for anti-sliding short piles. The results suggest that treating the load-bearing and embedded sections as a unified entity during the calculation process, instead of applying continuity conditions separately at the sliding surface as performed in traditional methods, simplifies the complex solving procedure. Moreover, under identical loading conditions, the displacement, bending moment, and shear force data obtained through the finite difference method closely coincide with the measurements from the model tests, confirming the reliability of the anti-sliding short pile calculation model. Additionally, this study demonstrates that reducing the spacing between nodes along the entire anti-sliding short pile, i.e., decreasing the value of the differential segment length ‘<i>h</i>’, results in more precise computational outcomes. This research offers valuable insights and references for sustainable solutions in the realm of geological disaster prevention and control. |
