非饱和土广义有效应力原理

综述了非饱和土有效应力的沿革,并就非饱和土有效应力的研究和发展中存在的问题进行了讨论。基于多相孔隙介质理论推导得到的变形功的表达式,提出了非饱和土广义有效应力原理。该原理认为,由非饱和土中的单应力变量的有效应力或双应力变量理论很难唯一地确定非饱和土的变形和强度。广义有效应力原理实质上就是要综合考虑影响非饱和土变形和强度的三种广义应力以及与其对偶的广义变形,给出考虑因素更为全面、理论基础更为坚实的广义有效应力原理。它为非饱和土基本性质的研究和本构方程的建立奠定了坚实而科学的理论基础。     

考虑吸附水的非饱和土耗散本构关系研究

为了探索土水吸附特征对非饱和土力学特性的影响,根据赋存环境把土中水分为储存在毛细管内液面张力吸纳作用占主导的自由水和包裹在土颗粒周围基质静电吸着作用占主导的吸附水。通过把土颗粒基质与吸附水一起共同视为非饱和土骨架相,自由水视为液相、土中气视为气相,获得了考虑吸附水的非饱和土功表达式。根据热力学耗散理论,利用功表达式和局部热力学平衡假定,获得非饱和土在绝热变形过程中的熵流和熵产。基于热力学吸附平衡理论获得土中吸附水的吸附方程,进而提出具有实用性的吸附水土-水特征曲线。利用熵产表达式中的热力学共轭量和耗散空间的Drucker 塑性公设,采用纯简化有效应力和有效吸力这一对双应力变量,建立了考虑吸附水的土水完全耦合的非饱和土弹塑性理论框架,据此获得采用净应力和吸力表示的弹塑性柔度矩阵,用于采用上述本构理论建模时理论模型与土工试验成果之间直接相互验证。     

杭州湾浅层储气砂土应力路径试验研究

利用GDS非饱和三轴试验系统开展了杭州湾储气砂土主动压缩、被动压缩、主动伸长与被动伸长等4种应力路径试验研究,以论证应力路径对非饱和砂土的变形性状与强度特性影响。结果表明,在卸荷应力路径被动压缩与被动伸长下非饱和砂土的应力-应变曲线呈明显的应变软化性状,而加荷应力路径主动压缩与主动伸长则分别表现为轻度应变软化及显著应变硬化变形特征;非饱和砂土的强度参数在卸荷与加荷应力路径中也存在差异,前者的有效凝聚力高于后者,而内摩擦角则相反;但其表观凝聚力与基质吸力关系在不同应力路径下均可用乘幂函数 有效描述,而试验参数a、b值不同,公式 可合理地用于表述非饱和砂土的强度特性。     

孔压静力触探用于含浅层生物气砂土工程特性的试验研究

含浅层生物气的砂土是一类特殊的非饱和土,由于此类砂土中含有封闭的生物气,生物气的存在对砂土的工程性质影响较大,使其有着有别于一般饱和砂性土的特殊工程特性。采用孔压静力触探仪,对砂土是否含有生物气进行了初步判别,然后对生物气释放前后砂土的承载性能进行了现场和室内试验对比研究,认为在含气砂土不发生渗透破坏的情况下生物气的缓慢释放会提高砂土的承载力,对砂土上部建筑物的稳定是有利的。

土壤吸湿-湿过程中水力传导度的拟合研究

非饱和含水介质在吸湿和脱湿的不同过程中,水力传导度随介质含水率的变化规律是不同的。本文选取大沽河流域两种代表性砂土,对其吸湿-脱湿两个过程分别进行试验观测,并使用VanGenuchten—Mualem模型对其吸湿-脱湿过程进行水力传导度的拟合。研究结果表明：砂土在吸湿过程的非饱和水力传导度与脱湿过程的非饱和水力传导度大小并不相同,在含水率相同的情况下,吸湿过程的水力传导度要比脱湿过程大,在含水率较低时（小于15％）相差可达1个数量级。     

非饱和土的一种分类方法

根据理想模型中土颗粒和孔隙水之间的几何关系、热力学原理和土力学基本理论,研究了土的非饱和性在非饱和土中引起的力系。给出了张力吸力和吸力比的定义,并在考虑基质吸力作用面积的基础上定义了等效吸力的概念。按照孔隙水弯液面是否与土颗粒表面搭接,将非饱和土分为搭接非饱和土和不搭接非饱和土两类。进而根据搭接状态将搭接非饱和土细分为水封闭非饱和土和搭接双开敞非饱和土,根据孔隙气状态将不搭接非饱和土细分为不搭接双开敞非饱和土和气封闭非饱和土。在搭接非饱和土中,出现张力吸力并对土体的强度产生增强作用;在不搭接非饱和土中,表面张力只是沿着液面传播,不对土的强度产生效应。另外,张力吸力只对强度问题有贡献,它不是渗流问题的驱动力。     

应用CT扫描研究非饱和砂土中污染物的迁移规律

应用CT扫描技术对两种稳定非饱和状态的砂土试样分层进行扫描,得到不同深度CT扫描层图像,采用Image J图像处理软件将CT图像转化为CT数均值,然后在稳定非饱和试样中分别间断性连续注入污染物KI溶液,测定不同时间间隔CT扫描图像,计算注入污染物先后扫描图像结果的差值,建立CT数均值和污染物迁移之间的关系,研究污染物在非饱和砂土中的运移特征,得出非饱和砂土中污染物浓度随时间和深度的变化规律,对研究其他介质中污染物的迁移具有重要的指导作用。     

接触角对非饱和土中基质吸力的影响

接触角是研究三相界面的一个基本物理量。非饱和土是典型的三相体,然而在非饱和土力学中对接触角的研究还比较少,目前还停留在假设阶段,通常假设接触角为某一固定值,甚至忽略接触角的影响。实际上接触角是随外界环境的改变而变化的。通过化学方法对砂土表面改性,从而提高砂土的接触角,使砂土由亲水性变为斥水性。在亲水性砂土中加入斥水性砂土以提高砂土的表观接触角,以此为基础制备不同接触角的试样进行吸力测量试验。试验结果表明,接触角对非饱和土中的基质吸力有重要影响,含水率相同时,随着接触角的增大基质吸力是不断减小的,当含水率增大到一定值时,基质吸力不受土体（亲水状态下）接触角的影响。当接触角增大到一定值时,非饱和土体中的基质吸力消失,即非饱和土体中不再存在负的孔隙水压力。     

细粒对砂土持水能力影响的试验研究

利用压力板仪,进行了不同细粒含量非饱和砂土的持水特征试验,分析砂土土-水特征曲线的特征,探讨细粒对砂土持水能力的影响。结果表明,细粒的增加提高了砂土的持水能力,不同吸力阶段细粒对持水能力的影响程度不同;基质吸力超过进气值后,细粒增加明显增强砂土持水能力。应用数学模型 描述不同细粒含量砂土的土-水特征曲线,分析了细粒含量对数学模型参数的影响,给出了细粒、基质吸力和含水率的函数关系为 。     

非饱和土三剪强度准则及验证

基于材料三剪强度准则和非饱和土力学特性,提出了非饱和土的单应力变量和双应力变量三剪强度准则,并对其做了特征分析。分析表明,通过改变准则中的主应力影响系数b,所提准则就可以对其他强度准则进行非线性近似表达。在π平面的极限线中,所提强度准则覆盖了由内边界的单剪强度准则到外边界的三剪统一强度准则之间的所有外凸区域。因此,其适用于各种复杂应力状态下的非饱和土体,也能反映非饱和土单轴抗拉抗压强度不等的特征。另外,还用其他文献的真三轴试验数据对所提准则做了试验验证,其中,非饱和黏土砂的真三轴试验值与中主应力影响系数b=0.6时的三剪强度准则预测值吻合较好,双应力变量下准则的预测值比单应力变量下的预测值更符合试验值;非饱和黄土真三轴试验值与中主应力影响系数b=0.2时的三剪强度准则预测值吻合较好,两种应力变量下的三剪强度准则预测值差别较小。     

Predicting the Shear Behavior of Cemented and Uncemented Carbonate Sands Using a Genetic Algorithm-Based Artificial Neural Network

Carbonate sands that are known as problematic soils, have some unusual features like particle crushability and compressibility that discriminate their behavior from other types of soil. Because of their vast diversity, they have a wide range of mechanical behavior. In recent decades, there have been many attempts to model the mechanical behavior of carbonate sands but all these efforts have been focused on experimental and case studies of some especial sands and there is still no unique way which can appraises all types of carbonate sands behavior and describes their various aspects. In this paper, a new approach is presented based on the integration of Genetic Algorithm (GA) into an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to predict the shear behavior of carbonate sands. In the proposed approach, the GA was utilized to optimize the connection weights of the ANN. The network was trained and tested using a comprehensive set of triaxial tests that were carried out on three different carbonate sands in both grouted and ungrouted (cemented and uncemented) condition. The network prediction was then compared to the experimental results and it was concluded that the GA-based ANN has a good potential in predicting the behavior and generalizing the training data to simulate new unseen data.

Open to closed system transition traced through the TDIC isotopic signature at the aquifer recharge stage, implications for groundwater C dating

¹⁴C dating models are limited when considering recent groundwater for which the carbon isotopic signature of the total dissolved inorganic carbon (TDIC) is mainly acquired in the unsaturated zone. Reducing the uncertainties of dating thus implies a better identification of the processes controlling the carbon isotopic composition of the TDIC during groundwater recharge. Geochemical interactions between gas, water and carbonates in the unsaturated zone were investigated for two aquifers (the carbonate-free Fontainebleau sands and carbonate-bearing Astian sands, France) in order to identify the respective roles of CO₂ and carbonates on the carbon isotopic signatures of the TDIC; this analysis is usually approached using open or closed system terms. Under fully open system conditions, the seasonality of the ¹³C values in the soil CO₂ can lead to important uncertainties regarding the so-called “initial ¹⁴C activity” used in ¹⁴C correction models. In a carbonate-bearing unsaturated zone such as in the Astian aquifer, we show that an approach based on fully open or closed system conditions is not appropriate. Although the chemical saturation between water and calcite occurs rapidly within the first metre of the unsaturated zone, the carbon isotopic contents (δ¹³C) of the CO₂ and the TDIC evolve downward, impacted by the dissolution-precipitation of the carbonates. In this study, we propose a numerical approach to describe this evolution. The δ¹³C and the A¹⁴C (radiocarbon activity) of the TDIC at the base of the carbonate-bearing unsaturated zone depends on (i) the δ¹³C and the A¹⁴C of the TDIC in the soil determined by the soil CO_2, (ii) the water’s residence time in the unsaturated zone and (iii) the carbonate precipitation-dissolution fluxes. In this type of situation, the carbonate δ¹³C-A¹⁴C evolutions indicate the presence of secondary calcite and permit the calculation of its accretion flux, equal to . More generally, for other sites under temperate climate and with similar properties to the Astian sands site, this approach allows for a reliable determination of the carbon isotopic composition at the base of the unsaturated zone as the indispensable “input function” data of the carbon cycle into the aquifer.     

Prediction of flow liquefaction instability of clean and silty sands

Adding a small amount of non-plastic silt to clean sands may lead to dramatic loss of shear strength and a noteworthy tendency toward contraction when the mechanical behavior of the mixture is compared with that of the clean host sand. Thus, simulation of the behavior of silty sands with varying fines content is still a challenging subject in geomechanics. A unified constitutive model for clean and silty sands is presented in this paper. To eliminate the factitious decrease of void ratio associated with inactive silt particles in various silty sand mixtures, the concept of equivalent void ratio is used in the model formulation instead of the global void ratio. In addition, the instantaneous soil state is expressed in terms of intergranular state parameter taking into account the combined influence of intergranular void ratio, mean principal effective stress and fines content. Then, dilatancy and plastic hardening modulus are directly linked to the intergranular state parameter. To improve the model capacity in simulation of cyclic tests, new features are added to the plastic hardening modulus. It is shown that the proposed model can reasonably reproduce the mechanical behavior as well as the onset of flow liquefaction instability of clean and silty sands using a unique set of parameters.

戈壁风沙流结构特性及其意义

通过砾质戈壁风沙流野外实测数据的分析以及风洞模拟实验研究发现：戈壁风沙流结构具有与沙漠风沙流完全不同的风沙流特征,戈壁风沙地表的粗糙度随风速的增大而增加,其表面风沙流输沙量高度分布表现出独特的"象鼻"效应,在一定高度处呈现最大值,并随风速的增加而增高。该"象鼻"效应导致戈壁风沙流结构特征值λ远大于 1,不论风速多大,风沙流都处于未饱和状态的非堆积搬运状态。这种特殊性质比较清楚地解释了敦煌莫高窟千年来不被沙山埋没的谜底。并且在风沙防治工程实践中,采用砾石压沙措施,构造类似与砾质戈壁的下垫面,人工促使风沙流结构呈现"象鼻"形状,可使防沙工程达到理想的输导作用。     

Modeling of the simple shear deformation of sand: effects of principal stress rotation

The paper presents a simple constitutive model for the behavior of sands during monotonic simple shear loading. The model is developed specifically to account for the effects of principal stress rotation on the simple shear response of sands. The main feature of the model is the incorporation of two important effects of principal stress on stress–strain response: anisotropy and non-coaxiality. In particular, an anisotropic failure criterion, cross-anisotropic elasticity, and a plastic flow rule and a stress–dilatancy relationship that incorporate the effects of non-coaxiality are adopted in the model. Simulations of published experimental results from direct simple shear and hollow cylindrical torsional simple shear tests on sands show the satisfactory performance of the model. It is envisioned that the model can be valuable in modeling in situ simple shear response of sands and in interpreting simple shear test results.     

考虑颗粒破碎的钙质砂修正邓肯-张E-B模型

在常规应力水平下颗粒发生破碎是钙质砂有别于其他砂土的重要性质之一,且由于颗粒破碎的存在,使用传统的本构模型无法很好地模拟钙质砂的力学行为。因此本文以最为普及的本构模型之一--邓肯-张E-B模型为基础,对其进行颗粒破碎方面的修正以得到一个能用于钙质砂的本构模型。具体方法为:首先本文采用Hardin提出的相对破碎Br这一指标来度量颗粒破碎的大小。之后研究分析得出了颗粒破碎对邓肯-张模型参数(内摩擦角φ、割线模量E50及体积模量B)的影响规律。然后通过颗粒破碎与输入能量之间的关系将各状态下无法直接确定的相对破碎Br与可确定的应力-应变状态联系起来。最终得到了一个考虑颗粒破碎的钙质砂修正邓肯-张E-B模型。为验证模型的准确性及适用性,本文还使用该模型对4种不同粒径范围且试验围压不同的钙质砂的三轴排水行为进行了模拟。结果表明拟合效果较好,模型能适用于各种不同粒径范围的钙质砂,并且在颗粒破碎较大的情况下明显优于传统邓肯-张模型。
