Feasibility Study on Detection of Moisture Content of Soil Based on Piezoelectric Wave Method

The safety of foundation engineering construction is often based on the stability of the foundation pit, and the moisture content of the soil is the key factor of slope stability. However, it is very difficult to observe the internal moisture content of the soil, so it is difficult to understand the change of soil moisture in real time. At present, there are few methods to monitor soil moisture content. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method of real time monitoring the moisture content of the soil structure. In this paper, by making a simple soil box, using piezoelectric intelligent aggregate and combining with the piezoelectric wave method, the soil moisture content in the soil box is monitored, and the piezoelectric signal and wavelet packet energy under different moisture content are obtained. Based on the wavelet packet analysis method, it is found that the amplitude of the piezoelectric signal and the corresponding wavelet packet energy index are positively correlated with the soil moisture content; and the higher the soil moisture content, the slower the rising rate of wavelet packet energy index, and it basically does not change when the soil moisture is close to saturation.It is verified that the proposed method has good feasibility.
