Numerical Analysis of the Preloading Consolidation of the Soft Foundation with a Plastic Drainage Plate

The permeability coefficient and void ratio are related to the stress state of the soil, which manifests as the temporal and spatial variability of consolidation. Based on the modified Cambridge model, this paper quotes the functional relationship between the soil permeability coefficient and void ratio and soil stress obtained by Tylor’s research and then uses finite-element software ABAQUS and its secondary development platform to establish a plastic drainage plate surcharge preloading numerical model that considers the influence of the void ratio and permeability coefficient with stress changes. The results show that considering the variability of the permeability coefficient in the consolidation process of the soft foundation has a great influence on the change of the consolidation state but has a small effect on the final consolidation state. For soft foundation surcharge preloading reinforcement treatment, if the strength of the soft foundation is low but the surcharge is large, the geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity should be considered. Using the theory of large deformation consolidation to calculate the consolidation of soil is closer to the actual situation.
