Abstract:

The bearing capacity and deformation behavior of coral sand foundations, a geotechnical structure commonly employed in coastal and island construction, are investigated in this study. Coral sand presents unique challenges due to its angularity and crushability, which affect interparticle interactions. Model tests and three-dimensional discrete-continuous coupled numerical simulations are performed to understand these complexities, focusing on the impacts of relative density, footing size and shape, and particle crushing on the foundation performance. The testing and numerical simulation data reveal that the bearing capacity of coral sand foundations significantly improves with increasing relative density and footing size. Compared with square footings, circular footings exhibit superior bearing performance at a 70% relative density. However, increased particle crushing reduces the bearing capacity. These findings are evaluated and compared with the theoretical ultimate bearing capacities. Intense crushing and occlusions are observed directly beneath the footing, with marked increases in particle fragments, microscopic contact forces, and coordination numbers within this core region. Additionally, the deformation analysis reveals a symmetrical failure pattern in the coral sand foundations. This study delves into the microscopic interactions between particle crushing and its influence on the bearing and settlement performance, offering insights into the interplay between crushing, stress, and deformation. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd
