Instabilities of shallow gas-charged seabed are potential geological hazards in ocean engineering.In practice,the conventional field sampling techniques failed to obtain undisturbed gas-bearing sediments from the seabed for laboratory mechanical testing because of sensitive gas exsolution and escape from sediments.However,preparation of representative remoulded gas-charged specimens is a challenging issue,because it is rather difficult to quantitatively control the gas content and obtain uniform distribution of gas bubbles within the specimen.Given the above problems,this work proposes a reliable approach to reconstitute the high-saturation specimen of gas-charged sediments in the laboratory by an improved multifunction integrated triaxial apparatus(MITA).This apparatus is developed based on an advanced stress path triaxial system by introducing a temperature-controlled system and a wavemonitoring system.The temperature-controlled system is used to accurately mimic the in situ environments of sediments in the seabed.The wave-monitoring system is utilized to identify exsolution point of free gas and examine the disturbance of gas to specimens during gas exsolution.The detailed procedure of gassy specimen preparation is introduced.Then,the quality of prepared specimens using our improved apparatus is validated by the high-resolution micro-X-ray computed tomography(μCT)scanning test,from which bubble occurrence and size distribution within the gassy sand specimen can be obtained;and preliminary mechanical tests on gassy sand specimens with various initial saturation degrees are performed.The proposed specimen preparation procedure succeeds in proving the postulated occurrence state of gas bubbles in coarse-grained sediments and accurately controlling the gas content. 相似文献

In order to directly evaluate the effects of soil improvement by the Sand Compaction Pile (SCP) method on the density, deformation, and static and liquefaction strength characteristics of sandy soils, a series of field and laboratory tests were performed. Laboratory tests were performed on high-quality undisturbed samples obtained from sandy soils both before and after soil improvement by the SCP method. The high-quality undisturbed samples were recovered by the in-situ freezing sampling method. The drained shear strength (internal friction angle, φd), liquefaction strength (R15: cyclic stress ratio needed to cause 5% double amplitude axial strain in 15 cycles), and cyclic deformation characteristics (G~γ and h~γ relations) were determined by performing a series of laboratory tests on the undisturbed samples. Both the in-situ density and the relative density were measured on the undisturbed samples used in the laboratory tests. A standard penetration test (SPT) and a suspension-type P-S wave logging test were performed to investigate the soil profile of the test site before and after the sand compaction. Both the static and the liquefaction strengths of the sandy soils obtained in the laboratory tests were also compared with those estimated by empirical correlations used in practice based on the SPT N-value and soil gradations. 相似文献

基于白鹤滩水电站层间错动带的室内和现场剪切试验结果,对层间材料、层间材料/母岩接触面(土/岩接触面)的剪切力学特性进行研究。试验结果表明,层间材料和土/岩接触面都表现出无剪胀行为的理想弹塑性力学特性;层间材料的蠕变特性不明显;土/岩接触面的抗剪强度与接触面形貌密切相关,接触面越粗糙,其抗剪强度就越高。比较层间材料的室内和现场直剪试验的抗剪强度可知,试样具有强烈的不均匀性。试样扰动对其抗剪强度的影响要比材料变异性的影响小。尺寸效应使得室内试验获得的内摩擦角要比现场试验获得的大。黏粒含量是影响层间材料抗剪强度的重要因素:随着黏粒含量的增加,内摩擦角减少,黏聚力增大。层间材料的抗剪强度对初始饱和度的变化不敏感。室内试验和现场试验结果在黏粒含量和初始饱和度影响上表现出良好的一致性,说明试样的尺寸效应和变异性只是影响其抗剪强度的次要因素。 相似文献

Unconfined compression tests have been widely used in Japan for the purpose of determining undrained strengths of clay samples, but the unconfined compressive strengths are usually scattered even if specimens tested seem to have been subjected to the same stress history. This is due to the characteristic of the test itself, which is performed under unstable confining stress given by capillary pressure of the sample itself. In order to make clear the cause of scattering of measured strengths, three series of tests simulating the process from sampling to unconfined and triaxial compression tests on saturated soil samples are performed with three remolded and three undisturbed clays together with an undisturbed peat, and the influence of stress release and mechanical disturbance of the test specimen on the undrained strength is examined. Based on the test results, a practical method for estimating the in-situ undrained strength of soft soils from the results of a routine unconfined compression (UC) test together with suction measurement is proposed. From comparisons of the undrained strength profiles estimated by the proposed method with the strength profiles obtained by in-situ sounding test, it is found that the strength obtained by UC test can be reasonably corrected to estimate the in-situ undrained strength of soft soil deposits. 相似文献

A new cone pressuremeter has been developed at the University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore-Pakistan. The new device is called the Akbar Pressuremeter (APMT). This paper is based on the APMT testing of a cohesive soil deposit comprised of low plastic lean clay (CL) to sandy silty clay (CL-ML). The APMT testing, using a full-displacement technique, standard penetration tests and undisturbed samples, was carried out at two locations. The soil strength and type were determined using the undisturbed samples. The applied pressure-cavity strain curves of the APMT tests performed at different levels were analysed to determine soil strength and stiffness. The undrained shear strength of the undisturbed samples was determined in the laboratory by unconfined compression tests. This paper provides a comparison of the parameters interpreted from the pressuremeter and those determined from other field and laboratory methods. 相似文献

精确的试验测试显示,土体在小应变下呈非线性作用,用常规的室内试验和传统的线弹性分析方法不能真实描述土的刚度变化,只能采用原位试验和非线性分析方法来确定。基于Bolton等人提出的平面应变下不排水膨胀试验的非线性分析理论,研究了剑桥自钻式旁压试验过程中土体刚度随应变的变化规律,并与线性分析结果进行了对比。试验和分析结果表明:小应变下土体刚度具有高度的非线性,随应变的增加发生衰减,但在不同应变区间衰减程度不同;土体割线模量值大于切线模量值,其差值随应变的增加逐渐减小;传统的线性分析低估了土体弹性作用范围和强度,而采用非线性分析能确定不同应变下土的刚度参数,真实反映土的非线性作用特点。 相似文献

The failure of a sloping ground due to static liquefaction occurs when the shear stress applied by a monotonic triggering load exceeds the undrained yield (peak) shear strength of the saturated liquefiable cohesionless soil. Current practices for determining the in-situ undrained yield strength for grounds subjected to static shear stress rely on either a suite of costly laboratory tests on undisturbed field samples or empirical correlations based on in-situ penetration tests, which fail to account for the effect of soil dilatancy in decreasing the degree of strain-softening and the brittleness of cohesionless soils with an increasing penetration resistance. In this study, the effect of soil dilatancy on the static liquefaction failure of cohesionless soils is characterized by an empirical relationship between the soil brittleness index and the undrained yield strength from a database of 813 laboratory shear tests collected from the past literature. The application of this relationship for estimating the static liquefaction-triggering strength of cohesionless soils under sloping ground conditions is validated by comparing several cases of liquefaction flow failures. Finally, a procedure is briefly demonstrated for evaluating the triggering of static liquefaction in a dyke to the north of Wachusett Dam and Duncan Dam which incorporates the dilatancy behavior of cohesionless soils in a semi-empirical procedure based on in-situ penetration tests. 相似文献

This paper presents experimental investigations on the behavior of geogrid–reinforced sand featuring reinforcement anchorage which simulates the reinforcement connected to the wall facings in numerous in-situ situations. A series of large plane strain compression tests (the specimen 56 cm high × 56 cm wide × 45 cm long) was conducted. Standard Ottawa sand and 4 types of PET geogrids exhibiting 5% stiffness in the range of 750–1700 kN/m were used in this study. The specimens were tested by varying the relative density of sand, confining pressures, geogrid types, and reinforcement-anchorage conditions. Experimental results indicate that relative to unreinforced specimens, both anchored and non-anchored geogrid reinforcements can enhance the peak shear strength and suppress the volumetric dilation of reinforced soil. The studies on anchorage revealed that anchoring the reinforcement can restrain the lateral expansion of reinforced specimens, resulting in a substantial increase in shear strength and a reduction in volumetric dilation. The strength ratios of non-anchored specimens appeared to be insensitive to the reinforcement stiffness, whereas the strength ratios of the anchored specimens increased markedly with increases in soil density, reinforcement stiffness, and system deformation (i.e., axial stain). Geogrid anchorage contributed a large percentage of the total shear-strength improvement, nearly 3-times more than the contribution of the soil–geogrid interaction in non-anchored specimens. Lastly, an analytical model was developed based on the concept that additional confinement is induced by reinforcement anchorage, and the predicted shear strength of the anchored soil was verified based on the experimental data. 相似文献

The structure of the sedimentary clay influences its mechanical behavior in non-negligible ways. This paper proposes an effective approach for investigating the in-situ stiffness characteristics from shear modulus and strain decay curves (G–γ curves) based on self-boring pressuremeter and seismic dilatometer tests. To evaluate the excavation disturbance effects on the structured clay, the stiffness parameters from pre-bored pressuremeter tests are compared with the results of self-boring pressuremeter tests. The result indicates that the complete in-situ G–γ curves can be acquired by integrating the strain-dependent tangent shear modulus Gt from self-boring pressuremeter tests and the small-strain modulus G0 from seismic dilatometer tests. Simultaneous observations of the G–γ curves with hyperbolic shapes in semi-logarithmic coordinates at the same strain scale show the similarity of the stiffness decay mode of the soil at different depths. The increase in the measured values of Gt and G0 with depth can be attributed to the improved consolidation pressures and cemented strength in the structured clay. Additionally, the G/G0–γ curves measured by the in-situ tests generally agree well with the results predicted by the Stokoe model. The excavation disturbance weakens the stiffness of the structured clay, as evidenced by Gt from the pre-bored pressuremeter data being significantly smaller than that from self-boring pressuremeter tests at the same depth. Based on quantitative analysis, the disturbance degree computed from the measured results has a low sensitivity to the soil depth and a strong negative correlation with the strain level of the soil. This study provides an effective method for predicting the stiffness parameters of structured soil based on in-situ tests. 相似文献

基坑中基于CPTU软土不排水强度确定及应用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
不排水抗剪强度是土的重要力学特性参数。在岩土工程施工期稳定性分析中,需用不排水抗剪强度值。目前,不排水抗剪强度的确定主要有室内试验和十字板剪切试验。但前者受土样扰动影响大,后者十字板强度是土体各滑动面上抗剪强度的较小值,在基坑工程验算坑底隆起时,结果不够准确。本文首先总结了国内外基于CPTU的Su确定方法,在典型软土基坑工程中进行了孔压静力触探试验,根据不排水试验值与锥尖阻力的关系,反演出圆锥系数的值。基于反演的圆锥系数,把CPTU预测的不排水抗剪强度应用到基坑的隆起分析中,与基于室内试验数据和基于十字板强度的计算结果进行了比较,结果表明:基于CPTU的软粘土不排水抗剪强度指标计算结果合理,符合工程实际,值得在工程设计中推广。 相似文献

土体热导率是能源地下工程、高压电线埋设、冻土路基等工程设计中的重要参数,是评估土体换热性能及地下温度场计算的关键,但目前缺乏有效的原位测试手段。基于瞬时线热源温度消散理论,研发了可测试原位土体热导率的静力触探(CPT)探头。根据理论假设与现有CPT系统尺寸,确定了探头具体长度、直径、内部构造、温度采集点位,并提出相应测试步骤与热导率计算方法。利用COMSOL有限元分析软件对测试过程进行模拟验证,结果表明探头实际传热符合线热源假定,且计算方法适用于一般热导率土体。对于热导率较小(小于0.6 W/(m?K))土体,需适当延长测试时间。现场应用表明,土体原位热导率略高于取样土室内测试结果,表明取样扰动可能降低土体导热性能,最后对取样测试及工程设计提出改进建议。 相似文献

To investigate liquefaction properties of sandy soils, undrained cyclic loading tests are usually performed. However, it would be difficult to simulate fully the actual soil behaviour through the laboratory tests because the tested sample can be disturbed even though it is taken by in-situ freezing technique. In this study, by using three kinds of in-situ frozen sandy soils which were taken from Holocene and Pleistocene deposits and their reconstituted samples, their volume change properties were measured during freeze and thaw processes at different confining pressures of 30 kPa and 98 kPa. In order to investigate the effects of the possible sample disturbance on the liquefaction resistance, small strain characteristics were measured as well, which would reflect the soil structure. Decreases in the small strain characteristics and the liquefaction resistance were observed in case of the Holocene specimens that were thawed at the confining pressure that was lower than the in-situ overburden stress. On the other hand, in case of the Pleistocene specimens, the effects of the confining pressure during the thaw process on the small strain characteristics and the liquefaction resistance were small. Such contrastive feature between the Holocene and the Pleistocene samples could be linked with the difference in the types of their natural aging effects. 相似文献

地基土的变形模量是地基变形计算中的重要参数,一般要通过代价昂贵的平板载荷试验来获取。而室内试验虽可方便地获取土的压缩模量,但因取样过程中的扰动,致使压缩模量与变形模量之间并不符合理论关系公式。我们基于室内试验与现场平板载荷试验的对比分析,结合已有经验公式,得出适用于武广客运专线红粘土路段的变形模量经验取值公式,为由室内试验参数估算现场土体的变形模量提供理论依据。 相似文献
