Article Description

This study puts forward a reliability analysis for the bearing performance of piles subjected to the coupled action of chloride corrosion and scouring. A chloride diffusion model was constructed based on the stiffness degradation factor and Fick’s law. The Monte Carlo simulation method, along with the consideration of the scouring effect of water flow on the pile foundation, was employed to assess the impact of key factors on the failure probability, considering both the bending moment and lateral displacement damage criteria. The results show that for the same exposure period, the failure probability increases as the bending moment, lateral and vertical loads, and seawater velocity increase; furthermore for the same conditions, the failure probability increases with longer exposure times. According to a particular case study, the mean bending moment, mean lateral and vertical loads, and seawater velocity all have an impact on the lateral displacement failure criterion, making it more sensitive than the bending moment failure criterion.
