珊瑚礁岩土工程地质的探索与研究——从事珊瑚礁研究30年

EXPLORATION AND RESEARCH ON ENGINEERING GEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF CORAL REEFS——ENGAGED IN CORAL REEF RESEARCH FOR 30 YEARS

珊瑚礁是一种特殊的岩土体,从工程地质角度可分为珊瑚砂屑土和珊瑚礁灰岩两大类。本文回顾了珊瑚礁研究30年的基本历程,重点对珊瑚砂屑土的静力学特性、动力学特性、颗粒强度低等特殊力学性能以及桩基工程性质的探索和研究成果进行了回顾与展望,并以南海岛礁工程建设为引,号召更多的科研学者加入到珊瑚礁的研究队伍中,共同促进珊瑚礁工程地质学科的发展。

Coral reef is a kind of special geotechnical medium. From the perspective of engineering geology, it can be divided into two types: coral sandstone and coral reef limestone. This paper reviews the basic history of coral reef research for 30 years, focusing on the exploration and research results of the static mechanical properties, dynamic properties, low particle strength and other special mechanical properties of the coral sand soil and the engineering properties of the pile foundation. Taking the development and construction of coral reef islands in the South China Sea as a guide, more research scholars are called upon to join the research team of coral reefs to jointly promote the development of coral reef engineering geology.
