Evaluation of deformation for two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) braced excavation in clays with centrifuge modelling and numerical analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study presents an improved in-flight strutting system for centrifuge modelling. Based on the centrifuge model test data, the mobilizable strength design (MSD) method was revised. The modified MSD method extends to the prediction of three-dimensional (3D) deformations in retaining walls due to excavation activities. Initially, an improved in-flight excavation tool used in centrifuge tests was employed to investigate the impacts of staged excavation on the characteristics of wall displacement and ground settlement in two-dimensional (2D) braced excavation. Subsequently, 2D and 3D finite element analyses, calibrated against the centrifuge test data and considering the small strain effect, were conducted to assess the performance of wall displacement, ground settlement, and movement of the underground soil induced by the braced excavation. Moreover, this research proposes a straightforward predictive model based on the modified MSD, specifically for calculating the deformation along the length of retaining walls in 3D braced excavations. The insights and the modified MSD method given in this study may facilitate the design of foundation pit projects, especially when the 3D effects are an essential detail to be considered in these projects.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
