Therefore, oil and gas production operations are also gradually carried out in the ocean. When oil and gas drilling construction is carried out at sea, the stability and the safety of the offshore platform are more important due to the variable offshore climate, the damage of offshore storms and seabed undercurrents. The pile legs of the platform are immersed in sea waves to bear considerable wave action force, and wave load is one of main external forces borne by the ocean platform, so that the action rule of the wave load on the platform is determined, and the platform has very important effects on strength design and stability calculation of the platform.
The conventional platform wave load stress testing device does not always consider that the pile legs are not rigidly connected with the seabed foundation under the actual condition, so that the complex stress condition of the platform is generated, and the stress state of a platform model with the rigidly connected pile legs and the foundation under the wave load action is only simulated. Based on the experimental device, the invention provides an experimental device for the stress simulation test of the ocean platform, which simulates the composite action of the ocean base on the pile legs by utilizing the stress simulation connecting assembly between the pile legs and the foundation, so that the connection rigidity between the platform model and the foundation and the rigidity of the platform model are the same as the actual rigidity of the platform. Therefore, the platform model under the action of the wave load is subjected to stress simulation experiments, and the method can be used for simulating and measuring a plurality of parameters such as motion response, acceleration, pile leg reaction force and the like of the platform.
