To investigate the influence of sediment soil parameters to pile foundations of piled wharf to force deformation, a numerical computational model of the interaction system of bank slope and piled wharf is established, Firstly, extensive fiducial error is used to identify the key siltation stages during bank slope siltation process. Furthermore, the Sobol’ and TGP global sensitivity analysis method are also employed to analyze the sensitivity of the sediment soil parameters to the force deformation of pile foundations. On this basis, a normalized sensitivity index (SVI) method is utilized to determinate the importance of cohesion, friction angle, Young’s modulus, and Poisson's ratio in influencing the force deformation of the pile foundations. The computational results show that the Young’s modulus is the primary driving factor for affecting the force deformation of pile foundations. And the sensitivity of the pile foundation to horizontal displacement at the mudline is not influenced by sediment thickness, with the importance ranking as follows: Young’s modulus, cohesion, Poisson's ratio, and friction angle. The quantitative findings of this study contribute to a deeper understanding of the influence of sediment soil parameters on the force deformation of pile foundations during bank slope siltation process, which can provide valuable theoretical references for the engineering design and reliability assessment of the interaction system of bank slope and piled wharf.
