As the coastal region is the most developed region in China an increasing number of engineering projects are under constructionin it in recent years However the quality of these projects is significantly affected by groundwater which is influenced by tidalvariationsTherefore the regional groundwater dynamic characteristics under tidal impact and the spatiotemporal evolution of theseepage field must be considered in the construction of the projects Then Boussinesq function was introduced into the researchto deduce the seepage equation under tidal influence for the coastal area To determine the spatiotemporal evolution of the deepfoundation pit seepage field and the coastal seepage field evolution model numerical calculations based on changes in the tidalwater level and seepage equation were performed using MATLAB According to the developed model the influence of the seepagefield on the foundation pit supporting structure in the excavation process was analyzed through numerical simulationsThe resultsof this research could be considered in design and engineering practice
1 Introduction
Groundwater seepage significantly impacts the stability offoundation pit engineering and the deformation of thefoundation pit support structure and hence is a majorfactor in several foundation pit engineering accidents [1ndash3] Based on the generalized Darcy law Atangana andVermeulen [4] derived a new equation for groundwaterflow and obtained an asymptotic analytical solution of thegeneralized groundwater flow equation by the Frobenius andAdomian decomposition method And the feasibility of thesolution was verified through comparisons with field testresults Finally Atangana and Vermeulen further presented aproposition for reducing uncertainties in groundwater studyIn order to investigate the influences of seepage field onmechanical property Wang [5] developed a 3-DimensionalStochastic Seepage finite elementmodel and proposed amorecomprehensive stochastic algorithm to analyze seepage fieldproblems Qiu et al [6] established a statistical model andan artificial wavelet neural network model so as to improvepredication accuracy
To explore the impact of changes in seawater tides onvariations in groundwater levels Jacob [7] first established
a one-dimensional tidal seepage equation The equationcould be used to fit the movement of seawater by usingthe sine trigonometric function or cosine trigonometricfunction Jeng et al [8] established a new groundwaterseepage model by considering the dynamic effects of thephreatic aquifer on the head fluctuations in the confinedaquifer and accordingly derived a closed-form analyticalsolution In contrast to the previous solutions the newlydeveloped solution could describe the interaction effectbetween tidal oscillations and semiconfinedphreatic coastalaquifers Li et al [9] constructed a two-dimensional per-meability model of coastal tides by using the boundaryelement method They demonstrated that the groundwateramplitude decreased compared with the tide amplitude andthe vibration phase was also deferred Zhang et al [10]considered the mechanical properties and seepage charac-teristics of aquifers to explore the interaction between thewater level and seepage flow and to express the relationshipbetween confined groundwater and tides using a mathe-matical equation Numerous theories exist to describe theseepage of water Guo [11] investigated a multilayer aquifersystem comprising an upper weak permeable layer a lower

weak permeable layer and a confined aquifer According tothe premise that the boundary between the sea and land isvertical amathematicmodel of groundwater level fluctuationwith tides was established and an analytical solution wasdetermined
Numerous theories exist to describe the seepage of waterIn particular the Boussinesq equation has been widelyemployed [12ndash17] Nielsen [12] analyzed the relationshipbetween the inland average water table and tidal amplitudeand solved the question of tidal dynamics on a slopingbeach on the basis of the Boussinesq equation and a fieldmonitoring test A new Boussinesq equation was proposedand a set of formulae for groundwater recession was derivedto use for groundwater flow in confined and unconfinedaquifers [14] Li et al [15] presented a newmethod to improvethe discontinuous boundary condition of the Boussinesqequation The method is useful for handling the movingboundary condition by replacing the Boussinesq equationwith an advectionndashdiffusion equation with an oscillationvelocity Teo et al [17] analyzed the effect of tidal fluctuationon the groundwater level and developed a new parameter toreplace the factor of tilted shores
It is suffice to note that foundation pit engineering incoastal areas and inland areas significantly differs in the influ-ence of groundwater levels In coastal areas the groundwaterlevel is directly affected by the tidal properties outside thepit Because seepage characteristics may be different from thesteady supply of the groundwater level it is crucial to explorethe seepage characteristics around a deep foundation pitunder a tidal dynamic cycleTherefore this research proposesa seepage equation under tidal influence according to theBoussinesq function To explore the deformation propertiesof the supporting structure in a deep foundation pit undertidal impact a spatiotemporal evolutionmodel of the seepagefield was established in accordance with the onsite waterlevel monitoring results of a deep foundation pit in a coastalarea In addition a finite difference simulation softwareprogram was used to simulate the excavation process of thepit
2 Seepage Flow Model
21 Seepage Equation A side of a deep foundation pit nearthe coast was chosen because of its significant tidal impactThe following assumptions were made (1) the seepage fieldhas a gradually varied horizontal flow (2) changes in thevertical seepage velocity are ignored because the verticalseepage velocity is much smaller than the horizontal seepagevelocity (3) the external precipitation recharge on the freesurface is ignored Because the tide level changes overtime the partial derivative with respect to time should bepreserved in the study to explore the timendashspace evolutioncharacteristics of the seepage field under tidal influence It issupposed that the bottom bedrock of the pit is impermeableand no water-resisting layer exists among the backfill layersabove the bedrock The normal direction of the pit is the 119909-axis the coastline is set as the origin of the 119909-axis and thedirection from the coastline to foundation pit is the positive

Here 119896 is the permeability coefficient 120583 is the gravita-tional specific yield and empirical value of 120583 is 023 119905 isthe seepage time 119909 is the seepage distance and 119885(119909 119905) is afunction of the seepage field free surface
According to assumptions that (1) the distance from thefoundation pit boundary to coastline is 119871 meters (2) thefunction 119891(119905) is introduced to calculate the tide accords and(3) 119885 = 0 on the impermeable plane as shown in Figure 1since there are water-stop curtains around the foundation pitand the support structure is impermeable the boundary con-dition at119909 = 119871 is obtainedThat is (120597119885120597119909)|119909=119871 = 0Then theboundary conditions of the seepage model can be expressedas follows
119885 (0 119905) = 119891 (119905)120597119885120597119909

If the seepage flow is kept constant along the 119909-axis themean water levels of the seashore and foundation pit are 119863and 119869 respectively 119911 is the height of the phreatic line when119883 = 119909 as shown in Figure 1 The initial condition of themodel could be derived according to the gradually variedseepage flow equation with a flat slope as follows [21 22]
119902 = 1198962119871 (1198632 minus 1198692) = 1198962119909 (1198632 minus 1199112)= 1198962 (119871 minus 119909) (1199112 minus 1198692)

Here 119896 is the permeability coefficient 119902 represents theunit width flow and 119871 is the distance between the coastlineand foundation pit boundary

22 Seepage Equation Solution Several researchers haveattempted to determine the solution of (120597120597119909)[119896119885(119909 119905)(120597119885(119909119905)120597119905)] = 120583(120597119885(119909 119905)120597119905) [23 24] Therefore the equation islinearized in this research The first 119885(119909 119905) on the left sideof the equation could be considered a constant and replacedwith 119885119898 (119885119898 = (119863 + 119869)2) Accordingly the linearized seep-age equation is as follows
11988511989811989612059721198851205971199092 = 120583120597119885120597119905119885 (0 119905) = 119891 (119905)120597119885120597119909

in which 119890 (119909) = radic1198632 minus 1199091198632 minus 1198692119871

31 General Situation of a Coastal Foundation Pit Thecoastalfoundation pit chosen in the research is at 90m from the bayThe field area mainly comprises Quaternary artificial fill andHolocenemarine depositional strataThe physicomechanicalparameters of every stratum are shown in Table 1 To supportthe foundation a bored pile and an anchor cable supportsystem is used in the engineeringThe diameters of the boredpile and thewaterproof pile are 800mmwhile the pile spacingis 1200mm The detailed profile of the support system is
shown in Figure 2 and the parameters of the three anchorcables are indicated in Table 2
According to the official hydrogeological data the meantide water level is 123m (119863 = 123m) and the average annualwater level on the side of the foundation pit is 104m (119869 =104m) By analyzing the official hydrogeological data thechange of the tidal water level satisfies the following law
119891 (119905) = 12 lowast sin(1205871199056 ) + 123 (9)

32 Numerical Simulation The FlAC3D was used to analyzethe stability of coastal deep foundation pitThe dimensions ofthe model established in the research are 80m times 50m times 40mwith an excavation depth of 11m and an excavation width of30m The model is divided into 80000 zones and includes8634 grid points The mesh sketch of the numerical modelis shown in Figure 4
The upper surface of the model is a free boundary andthe bottom surface of the model is a fixed boundary Thefront and back boundaries constrain the displacement in the119910 direction and the left and right boundaries constrain thedisplacement in the 119909 directionThe computation parametersof the soil and cable are given in Table 2 Based on the changein water level of the seepage path in a tidal cycle (as shownin Table 3) the pore water pressure was applied to the model
as dynamic external stress Then dynamic calculation wascarried out during excavation of foundation pit Figure 5shows the calculation flow chart of numerical simulation
4 Analysis of Numerical Results
Figure 6 shows that the change in the horizontal displacementof the model increases with the excavation depth Themaximum horizontal displacement occurs in the upper partof the foundation pit sidewall The 119883-displacement of themodel increases with the excavation depth of the foundationpitThe isosurface of the119883-displacement is diffused in an arcand gradually tends to zero
Figure 7 shows the surface subsidence around the foun-dation pit It can be seen that the surface subsidence aroundthe foundation pit gradually increases with the excavationdepth and the maximum settlement is 105mm The settle-ment mainly occurs near the top of the supporting structureThe maximum settlement emerges at the top of the pile witheach excavation step

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides

weak permeable layer and a confined aquifer According tothe premise that the boundary between the sea and land isvertical amathematicmodel of groundwater level fluctuationwith tides was established and an analytical solution wasdetermined
Numerous theories exist to describe the seepage of waterIn particular the Boussinesq equation has been widelyemployed [12ndash17] Nielsen [12] analyzed the relationshipbetween the inland average water table and tidal amplitudeand solved the question of tidal dynamics on a slopingbeach on the basis of the Boussinesq equation and a fieldmonitoring test A new Boussinesq equation was proposedand a set of formulae for groundwater recession was derivedto use for groundwater flow in confined and unconfinedaquifers [14] Li et al [15] presented a newmethod to improvethe discontinuous boundary condition of the Boussinesqequation The method is useful for handling the movingboundary condition by replacing the Boussinesq equationwith an advectionndashdiffusion equation with an oscillationvelocity Teo et al [17] analyzed the effect of tidal fluctuationon the groundwater level and developed a new parameter toreplace the factor of tilted shores
It is suffice to note that foundation pit engineering incoastal areas and inland areas significantly differs in the influ-ence of groundwater levels In coastal areas the groundwaterlevel is directly affected by the tidal properties outside thepit Because seepage characteristics may be different from thesteady supply of the groundwater level it is crucial to explorethe seepage characteristics around a deep foundation pitunder a tidal dynamic cycleTherefore this research proposesa seepage equation under tidal influence according to theBoussinesq function To explore the deformation propertiesof the supporting structure in a deep foundation pit undertidal impact a spatiotemporal evolutionmodel of the seepagefield was established in accordance with the onsite waterlevel monitoring results of a deep foundation pit in a coastalarea In addition a finite difference simulation softwareprogram was used to simulate the excavation process of thepit
2 Seepage Flow Model
21 Seepage Equation A side of a deep foundation pit nearthe coast was chosen because of its significant tidal impactThe following assumptions were made (1) the seepage fieldhas a gradually varied horizontal flow (2) changes in thevertical seepage velocity are ignored because the verticalseepage velocity is much smaller than the horizontal seepagevelocity (3) the external precipitation recharge on the freesurface is ignored Because the tide level changes overtime the partial derivative with respect to time should bepreserved in the study to explore the timendashspace evolutioncharacteristics of the seepage field under tidal influence It issupposed that the bottom bedrock of the pit is impermeableand no water-resisting layer exists among the backfill layersabove the bedrock The normal direction of the pit is the 119909-axis the coastline is set as the origin of the 119909-axis and thedirection from the coastline to foundation pit is the positive

Here 119896 is the permeability coefficient 120583 is the gravita-tional specific yield and empirical value of 120583 is 023 119905 isthe seepage time 119909 is the seepage distance and 119885(119909 119905) is afunction of the seepage field free surface
According to assumptions that (1) the distance from thefoundation pit boundary to coastline is 119871 meters (2) thefunction 119891(119905) is introduced to calculate the tide accords and(3) 119885 = 0 on the impermeable plane as shown in Figure 1since there are water-stop curtains around the foundation pitand the support structure is impermeable the boundary con-dition at119909 = 119871 is obtainedThat is (120597119885120597119909)|119909=119871 = 0Then theboundary conditions of the seepage model can be expressedas follows
119885 (0 119905) = 119891 (119905)120597119885120597119909

If the seepage flow is kept constant along the 119909-axis themean water levels of the seashore and foundation pit are 119863and 119869 respectively 119911 is the height of the phreatic line when119883 = 119909 as shown in Figure 1 The initial condition of themodel could be derived according to the gradually variedseepage flow equation with a flat slope as follows [21 22]
119902 = 1198962119871 (1198632 minus 1198692) = 1198962119909 (1198632 minus 1199112)= 1198962 (119871 minus 119909) (1199112 minus 1198692)
(3)
Here 119896 is the permeability coefficient 119902 represents theunit width flow and 119871 is the distance between the coastlineand foundation pit boundary

Therefore the equation could be simplified to (4) and theinitial condition could be expressed as (5)

Based on the above parameters the seepage equation ofthe seepage field model could be given as follows

22 Seepage Equation Solution Several researchers haveattempted to determine the solution of (120597120597119909)[119896119885(119909 119905)(120597119885(119909119905)120597119905)] = 120583(120597119885(119909 119905)120597119905) [23 24] Therefore the equation islinearized in this research The first 119885(119909 119905) on the left sideof the equation could be considered a constant and replacedwith 119885119898 (119885119898 = (119863 + 119869)2) Accordingly the linearized seep-age equation is as follows
11988511989811989612059721198851205971199092 = 120583120597119885120597119905119885 (0 119905) = 119891 (119905)120597119885120597119909

in which 119890 (119909) = radic1198632 minus 1199091198632 minus 1198692119871

3 Application to a Real Field Case A CoastalFoundation Pit
31 General Situation of a Coastal Foundation Pit Thecoastalfoundation pit chosen in the research is at 90m from the bayThe field area mainly comprises Quaternary artificial fill andHolocenemarine depositional strataThe physicomechanicalparameters of every stratum are shown in Table 1 To supportthe foundation a bored pile and an anchor cable supportsystem is used in the engineeringThe diameters of the boredpile and thewaterproof pile are 800mmwhile the pile spacingis 1200mm The detailed profile of the support system is
shown in Figure 2 and the parameters of the three anchorcables are indicated in Table 2
According to the official hydrogeological data the meantide water level is 123m (119863 = 123m) and the average annualwater level on the side of the foundation pit is 104m (119869 =104m) By analyzing the official hydrogeological data thechange of the tidal water level satisfies the following law
119891 (119905) = 12 lowast sin(1205871199056 ) + 123 (9)

32 Numerical Simulation The FlAC3D was used to analyzethe stability of coastal deep foundation pitThe dimensions ofthe model established in the research are 80m times 50m times 40mwith an excavation depth of 11m and an excavation width of30m The model is divided into 80000 zones and includes8634 grid points The mesh sketch of the numerical modelis shown in Figure 4
The upper surface of the model is a free boundary andthe bottom surface of the model is a fixed boundary Thefront and back boundaries constrain the displacement in the119910 direction and the left and right boundaries constrain thedisplacement in the 119909 directionThe computation parametersof the soil and cable are given in Table 2 Based on the changein water level of the seepage path in a tidal cycle (as shownin Table 3) the pore water pressure was applied to the model
as dynamic external stress Then dynamic calculation wascarried out during excavation of foundation pit Figure 5shows the calculation flow chart of numerical simulation
4 Analysis of Numerical Results
Figure 6 shows that the change in the horizontal displacementof the model increases with the excavation depth Themaximum horizontal displacement occurs in the upper partof the foundation pit sidewall The 119883-displacement of themodel increases with the excavation depth of the foundationpitThe isosurface of the119883-displacement is diffused in an arcand gradually tends to zero
Figure 7 shows the surface subsidence around the foun-dation pit It can be seen that the surface subsidence aroundthe foundation pit gradually increases with the excavationdepth and the maximum settlement is 105mm The settle-ment mainly occurs near the top of the supporting structureThe maximum settlement emerges at the top of the pile witheach excavation step

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides

22 Seepage Equation Solution Several researchers haveattempted to determine the solution of (120597120597119909)[119896119885(119909 119905)(120597119885(119909119905)120597119905)] = 120583(120597119885(119909 119905)120597119905) [23 24] Therefore the equation islinearized in this research The first 119885(119909 119905) on the left sideof the equation could be considered a constant and replacedwith 119885119898 (119885119898 = (119863 + 119869)2) Accordingly the linearized seep-age equation is as follows
11988511989811989612059721198851205971199092 = 120583120597119885120597119905119885 (0 119905) = 119891 (119905)120597119885120597119909

3 Application to a Real Field Case A CoastalFoundation Pit
31 General Situation of a Coastal Foundation Pit Thecoastalfoundation pit chosen in the research is at 90m from the bayThe field area mainly comprises Quaternary artificial fill andHolocenemarine depositional strataThe physicomechanicalparameters of every stratum are shown in Table 1 To supportthe foundation a bored pile and an anchor cable supportsystem is used in the engineeringThe diameters of the boredpile and thewaterproof pile are 800mmwhile the pile spacingis 1200mm The detailed profile of the support system is
shown in Figure 2 and the parameters of the three anchorcables are indicated in Table 2
According to the official hydrogeological data the meantide water level is 123m (119863 = 123m) and the average annualwater level on the side of the foundation pit is 104m (119869 =104m) By analyzing the official hydrogeological data thechange of the tidal water level satisfies the following law
119891 (119905) = 12 lowast sin(1205871199056 ) + 123 (9)

32 Numerical Simulation The FlAC3D was used to analyzethe stability of coastal deep foundation pitThe dimensions ofthe model established in the research are 80m times 50m times 40mwith an excavation depth of 11m and an excavation width of30m The model is divided into 80000 zones and includes8634 grid points The mesh sketch of the numerical modelis shown in Figure 4
The upper surface of the model is a free boundary andthe bottom surface of the model is a fixed boundary Thefront and back boundaries constrain the displacement in the119910 direction and the left and right boundaries constrain thedisplacement in the 119909 directionThe computation parametersof the soil and cable are given in Table 2 Based on the changein water level of the seepage path in a tidal cycle (as shownin Table 3) the pore water pressure was applied to the model
as dynamic external stress Then dynamic calculation wascarried out during excavation of foundation pit Figure 5shows the calculation flow chart of numerical simulation
4 Analysis of Numerical Results
Figure 6 shows that the change in the horizontal displacementof the model increases with the excavation depth Themaximum horizontal displacement occurs in the upper partof the foundation pit sidewall The 119883-displacement of themodel increases with the excavation depth of the foundationpitThe isosurface of the119883-displacement is diffused in an arcand gradually tends to zero
Figure 7 shows the surface subsidence around the foun-dation pit It can be seen that the surface subsidence aroundthe foundation pit gradually increases with the excavationdepth and the maximum settlement is 105mm The settle-ment mainly occurs near the top of the supporting structureThe maximum settlement emerges at the top of the pile witheach excavation step

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides

Figure 2 Cross-section of foundation pit supporting structure
seepage field with time and infiltration distance is analyzedby MATLAB in two 24 h periods The spatiotemporal evolu-tionary characteristic surface of the seepage field is presentedin Figure 3
32 Numerical Simulation The FlAC3D was used to analyzethe stability of coastal deep foundation pitThe dimensions ofthe model established in the research are 80m times 50m times 40mwith an excavation depth of 11m and an excavation width of30m The model is divided into 80000 zones and includes8634 grid points The mesh sketch of the numerical modelis shown in Figure 4
The upper surface of the model is a free boundary andthe bottom surface of the model is a fixed boundary Thefront and back boundaries constrain the displacement in the119910 direction and the left and right boundaries constrain thedisplacement in the 119909 directionThe computation parametersof the soil and cable are given in Table 2 Based on the changein water level of the seepage path in a tidal cycle (as shownin Table 3) the pore water pressure was applied to the model
as dynamic external stress Then dynamic calculation wascarried out during excavation of foundation pit Figure 5shows the calculation flow chart of numerical simulation
4 Analysis of Numerical Results
Figure 6 shows that the change in the horizontal displacementof the model increases with the excavation depth Themaximum horizontal displacement occurs in the upper partof the foundation pit sidewall The 119883-displacement of themodel increases with the excavation depth of the foundationpitThe isosurface of the119883-displacement is diffused in an arcand gradually tends to zero
Figure 7 shows the surface subsidence around the foun-dation pit It can be seen that the surface subsidence aroundthe foundation pit gradually increases with the excavationdepth and the maximum settlement is 105mm The settle-ment mainly occurs near the top of the supporting structureThe maximum settlement emerges at the top of the pile witheach excavation step

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides

Figures 8 and 9 show the results of horizontal and verticaldisplacements of the pile top at different excavation depthof deep foundation pit excavation The simulation resultsof the horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topare basically consistent with the site monitoring resultsThe horizontal and vertical displacements of the pile topaffected by the tide are obviously increased comparedwith thedisplacements under anhydrous conditions The deviation ofthe displacements increases with the excavation depth Thehorizontal and vertical displacements of the pile top withouttidal influence are 105mm and 82mm during excavation atthe bottomof the foundation pit However the horizontal andvertical displacements of the pile top with tidal influence are141mm and 106mm respectively The increases are 343and 226 respectively It is shown that the bearing capacityand deformation of the supporting structure in the deepfoundation pit are adversely affected by tides Therefore thetidal effect should be considered in the design of the supportstructure for a coastal deep foundation pit
5 Conclusions
To solve the seepage mechanics problems of a foundationpit affected by tides the equation of the seepage flow wasdeduced and the timendashspace evolution model of a seepagefield for a deep foundation pit was established based on theBoussinesq functionThe effects of time and space on seepageproperties are considered sophisticated
According to the results of in situ monitoring thevariations in the tide and groundwater level of the foun-dation pit on the ocean side were analyzed Although the
groundwater level of the foundation pit on the ocean sideperiodically changes similar to the tide the amplitude ofthe groundwater level is less than that of the tide Basedon the developed timendashspace seepage model the dynamicwater level of the coastal foundation pit seepage path wascalculated by MATLAB and used to analyze the deformationof the support structure of the deep foundation pit undertidal influence It is obviously seen that the seepage affectedby tide has a significant influence on the deformation ofthe deep foundation pit and increases the security risk ofengineering Therefore in order to ensure the safety of thefoundation pit and improve the construction environmentthe adverse effects of tides must be considered in the designand construction of deep foundation pits in coastal regions
The dynamic and fluid coupling calculation is a rathercomplex question We turned a complex problem into tworelatively simple problems One was simulated by MATLABbased on the seepage model presented in our manuscript andthe other was simulated by dynamic calculation of FLAC3DThe study can provide a new idea for the stability analysis ofdeep foundation pit under the influence of tides
