Influence law of modified glutinous rice-based materials on gravel soil reinforcement and water erosion process

A large number of loose piles formed by mountain hazards are highly susceptible to hydraulic erosion under rainfall conditions.The use of ecological substrate materials for erosion control and ecological restoration of gravel soil slopes has become a current research hotspot and the study difficulty.The post-earthquake slump accumulation gravel soil in Jiuzhaigou was selected as the research object,and the self-developed modified glutinous rice-based material was used to reinforce the gravel soil.The variable slope flume erosion test and rainfall simulation test were carried out to study the water erosion resistance of the material reconstructed soil under the influence of runoff erosion and raindrop splash erosion.The results show that:As the material content reached 12.5%,the reconstructed soil did not disintegrate after 24 hours of immersion,the internal friction angle was increased by 42.26%,and the cohesion was increased by 235.5%,which played a significant reinforcement effect.In the process of slope erosion,the soil rill erodibility parameter Kr was only 3‰ of the gravel soil control group,the critical shear force τ increased by 272%,and the soil erosion resistance was significantly improved.In the process of rainfall and rainfall on the slope,the runoff intensity of the reconstructed soil was stable,and the ability to resist runoff erosion and raindrop splash erosion was enhanced.The maximum value of soil loss rate on different slope slopes is 0.02-0.10 g·m^(-2)s^(-1),which is significantly lower than that of the control group and has better erosion reduction effect.

Mechanisms involved in triggering debris flows,within a cohesive gravel soil mass on a slope:a case in SW China

The triggering mechanisms of debris flows were explored in the field using artificial rainfall experiments in two gullies, Dawazi Gully and Aizi Gully, in Yunnan and Sichuan Provinces, China,respectively. The soils at both sites are bare, loose and cohesive gravel-dominated. The results of a direct shear test, rheological test and back-analysis using soil mass stability calculations indicate that the mechanisms responsible for triggering debris flows involved the decreases in static and dynamic resistance of the soil. The triggering processes can be divided into 7 stages: rainfall infiltration, generation of excess runoff, high pore water pressure, surface erosion, soil creep, soil slipping, debris flow triggering and debris flow increment. In addition, two critical steps are evident:(i) During the process of the soil mass changing from a static to a mobile state, its cohesion decreased sharply(e.g., the cohesion of the soil mass in Dawazi Gully decreased from 0.520 to0.090 k Pa, a decrease of 83%). This would have reduced the soil strength and the kinetic energy during slipping, eventually triggered the debris flow.(ii) When the soil mass began to slip, the velocity and the volume increment of the debris flow fluctuated as a result of the interaction of soil resistance and the sliding force. The displaced soil mass from the source area of the slope resulted in the deposition of a volume of soil more than 7-8 times greater than that in the source area.

Effect of clay content to the strength of gravel soil in the source region of debris flow

The production of runoff in the source area of a debris flow is the consequence of a reduction in soil strength. Gravel soil is widely distributed in the source region, and the influence of its clay content on soil strength is one of the important questions regarding the formation mechanism of debris flows. In this paper, the clay content in gravel soil is divided into groups of low clay content(1%, 2, 5%), moderate clay content(3.75%, 5.00%, 6.25%, 7.5%) and high clay content(10.0%, 12.5%, 15%). Tests of the unconsolidated undrained shear strength and consolidated drained shear strength were performed. The unconsolidated undrained shearing(UU) experiment simulates the rapid shear failure of loose gravel soil under the conditions of brief heavy rainfall. The consolidated drained shearing(CD) experiment simulates creep failure of consolidated sediment during extended rainfall. The pore water pressure first increased and then decreased as the clay content increased, and the increase in pore pressure was relatively high in the gravel soil sample when the clay content is in the range of 3.25-7.50%, and stress in the gravel soil is relatively low for a moderate clay content. Gravelly soils with a moderate clay content are moreprone to debris-flow initiation. This paper presents a mathematical formula for the maximum shear stress and clay content of gravel soil under two conditions. The key processes whereby the soil fails and triggers a debris flow—volume contraction of soil, expansion of clay soil, and rise of pore pressure―cause reductions in the soil friction force and enhancement of the water content in the clay particles, and subsurface erosion of soil reduces the soil viscosity, which eventually reduces the soil strength so that the soil loses its stability, liquefies and generates a debris flow.

Analysis of influence factors of unconfined compressive strength for composite soil stabilizer-stabilized gravel soil

In order to investigate the effect o f some factors on the unconfined compressive strength(UCS)for composite soil stabilizer-stabilized gravel soil(CSSSGS),the orthogonal test is adopted to set up the experimental scheme.Three levels o f each factor armconsidered to obtain the change laws o f UCS,in which the binder dosages are8%,10%,and12%;the curing times ae7,14and21d;the gradation nae0.3,0.35and0.4;and the degrees of compaction are95%,97%,and99%.The range analysis clearly indicates that the influence degree o f the four factors on UCS is in such an order:dosage,age,gradation,and degree o f compaction.The variance analysis shows that only the composite soil stabilizer dosage can significantly affect UCS.In road construction,the examination o f composite soil stabilizer dosage and base-course maintenance should be given much more attention to obtain satisfactory base-course strength,compared w ith gradation floating and the change of degree o f compaction.

Within the framework of a FEM of the nonlinear behavior of lateritic pavement of Senegal, the effect of truck overloading is studied to estimate its impact on the deformability of road pavement on compacted gravel lateritic soils. For that purpose, various loading conditions were tested to measure the impact on the critical response parameters of road pavement design. The implementation of the models was realized with Cast3M©. This study allowed us to point out that the observed variations are linear and would help to plan in advance the impact of axle overloads for a better evaluation within the framework of the mechanistic (M. E.) design of pavements.

Effects of Different Gravel Mulched Years on Soil Microbial Flora and Physical and Chemical Properties in Gravelsand Mulched Fields

Soil microbial flora and influencing factors of soil microbes in soil and gravel-sand mixed layer（ SGSML）,roots denseness layer（ RDL）,eluviate layer（ EL） and calcium accumulation layer（ CAL） in gravel-sand mulched fields（ GSMFs） with different gravel mulched years（ 1,6,12,19 and 25 years） were studied. The results showed that in the composition of soil microbes in the GSMFs,the quantity of bacteria was the largest,followed by actinomycetes,while the number of fungi was the smallest. The total quantity of soil microorganisms in the GSMFs dropped rapidly with the increase of soil depth,which was related to the sudden decrease in the quantity of bacteria. The number of microbes in the RDL was larger than that in the SGSML with few roots due to the effects of root distribution. The number of bacteria and actinomycete in the growing season was larger than that in the non-growing season,while the quantity of fungi in the growing season was smaller than that in the non-growing season. The quantity of bacteria and fungi was the largest in the GSMFs which had been mulched with gravel for 6-12 years. With the increase of mulching time,the GSMFs aged gradually,so their quantity reduced gradually. The quantity of actinomycetes was the smallest in the GSMFs which had been mulched with gravel for 6-12 years and increased with the increase of mulching time. The number of soil microbes in the GSMFs had a good correlation with soil moisture content,p H and mulching time. Soil total carbon content was an important factor restricting the quantity of soil microbes in the GSMFs.

Grain Size Influence on the Compaction Aptitude and the Bearing Strength of the Gravel Lateritic Soils

This study is carried out to appreciate the coarse elements influence of the gravel lateritic soils on the pavement behavior. The material involves not only the 0/20 mm granular particles considered in the specifications and on the laboratory tests, but also all of the material that is actually used in the construction sites. Geotechnical characterization was leaned on five differentiated granular classes of 0/20;0/25;0/31.5;0/40 and 0/63 mm diameters. The sample of 0/40 mm gets the best compaction aptitude, while that of 0/31.5 mm reaches the greatest bearing strength and a good Optimum Moisture Content. According to the requirements and its bearing strengths, the material is usable up to subbase layer and its behavior depends on the grain size.

基于拉拔试验的加筋土界面摩擦特性

加筋土具有良好的工程性能,被广泛应用于加固路基和边坡支挡等领域,筋土界面摩擦强度对支挡结构的整体性和稳定性具有重要影响.为研究不同加筋土的界面摩擦特性,自制拉拔装置,对黏土-土工格栅、黏土-碳纤维布、黏土-土工格室和碎石土-土工格室等4种加筋土进行拉拔试验.研究结果表明,4种加筋土中,土工格室与碎石土的界面摩擦强度最高,构成的加筋体承受变形的能力最强;黏土-碳纤维布构成的加筋体界面摩擦强度最低,但具有筋土间相互作用发挥较快、允许变形小的特点;不同加筋体的允许变形差别较大,在实际工程中应充分考虑.提出了一种考虑土工格室加强区的无黏性土-土工格室界面最大摩阻力计算理论模型,研究结果可为加筋土工程筋材选取提供参考.

基于电阻的冻结砂砾土孔隙冰压融效应研究

为验证冻结砂砾土压缩过程中是否存在压融效应,对不同含水(冰)状态与不同冻结温度的砂砾土进行无侧限压缩试验和电阻测试,通过核磁共振测定饱和砂砾土的未冻水含量。结果表明:(1)砂砾土压缩过程电阻均先快速降低后趋缓,仅有干燥样品在应力峰值点后出现电阻增大的现象;(2)电阻快速降低阶段干燥样品的电阻降低率小于饱和冻结样品,−4℃饱和样品该值为26.8%,其值为相同温度下干燥样品的4倍;(3)随温度降低,电阻快速降低阶段的降低率先增加后减小;(4)随温度降低,自由水与毛细水的相对含量快速减小,吸附水的相对含量先小幅增加后缓慢降低。分析认为:冻结砂砾土压缩过程中存在压融效应,这导致样品在受荷过程中高应力区未冻水含量增大,而融水会沿未冻水膜向低应力区的孔隙迁移、复冰进而改变孔隙结构;冻结温度在−2~−4℃区间附近,压融效应更容易发生。

玄武岩纤维遏制作用下的砾类土管涌试验研究

管涌如果无法及时得到遏制,会导致大量土体流失以致堤防溃决。为研究管涌发生环节时使用玄武岩纤维的遏制作用,拟通过室内管涌试验,从孔压、水力梯度、渗透系数、流速、颗粒流失等方面,研究不同纤维含量和纤维长度的玄武岩纤维对管涌发生发展的遏制效应。结果表明,玄武岩纤维的加入使得缺级配砾类土体的迁移通道变得更加曲折和狭窄,从而遏制整个土体的管涌发展。同等玄武岩纤维含量下玄武岩纤维缺级配砾类土存在最佳的纤维长度遏制管涌发展。纤维长度过长,增大了土体的迁移路径同时也使迁移通道相对变宽;纤维长度越短使得细颗粒的迁移通道变得更加狭窄,更加容易造成局部堵塞,进一步使得管涌继续从其他方向发展,造成颗粒的进一步流失。

砾石覆盖是旱区特有的一种保护性耕作模式。长期的农业生产实践已经证明,地表覆砂能够很好地适应旱区严酷、恶劣的自然环境,并为当地农业发展和效益提升带来极大助力。然而,砾石覆盖农田退化所带来的一系列负面效应愈加凸显,成为当地农业发展的障碍因子。文章以砾石覆盖的土壤环境效应为脉络,归纳总结了砾石覆盖对土壤水热环境、土壤盐分、土壤有机质、土壤微生物和酶活性,以及水土保持等方面的影响效应和相关机制。同时,进一步指明旱区砂田当前所面临的问题与挑战,并提出该领域未来可持续深化和拓展的方向,主要包括:(1)砾石覆盖农田退化过程中土壤环境的综合演变机制;(2)“砾石-土壤-作物”系统间的协同作用机制;(3)应对砂田退化的农业修复模式及可持续发展路径;(4)砾石覆盖对局部区域气候的影响机制。

充填型岩溶隧道仰坡滑塌机制及稳定性控制技术——以宜宾巡场至玉和公路下坝隧道出口段为例

为解决充填型岩溶隧道进洞过程中引起的仰坡滑塌问题,利用现场调查和MultiFracS多物理场断裂分析软件,对隧道进洞过程中仰坡体内裂缝发展过程和围岩变形情况进行分析,提出洞口仰坡加固措施并进行效果评价,得出如下结论:1)连续降雨是引起仰坡滑塌的直接原因,随着含水率的增加,碎石土充填物抗剪强度降低,溶腔区位移变化显著且出现微裂隙;当含水率增加至20%时,溶腔区裂缝进一步发展,局部出现开裂,地表滑动位移不断增加。2)隧道进洞施工扰动加速了地表覆盖层与下伏基岩间贯通裂缝的形成,仰坡体呈现整体滑动趋势。基于现场调查和数值分析,采用“缓坡+钢锚管/锚索框架梁”的仰坡防护形式,用注浆钢锚管替代锚杆和部分锚索,能够避免溶腔内碎石土在雨水下渗中产生变形破坏。经现场实测数据验证,加固后的仰坡在隧道二次进洞过程中处于稳定状态,隧道洞内变形和地表沉降均得到了有效控制。

九寨沟黏性土含量对改良碎石土水分特性的影响

[目的]分析九寨沟2017年“8·8”地震后崩坡积碎石土和当地沉积黏性土不同比例混合体的土壤水分特性,选出适宜研究区植物生长的最佳改良碎石土,为九寨沟地区灾后生态环境修复提供科学依据。[方法]将九寨沟当地黏性土与九寨沟地区碎石土以不同体积比进行混合,通过土水特征曲线试验、水分常数试验、土柱试验来探究不同比例下土壤水分特性,挑选适宜于植物生长的混合土比例。[结果]①van Genuchten模型能够很好地拟合改良碎石土的土水特征曲线,土壤进气值随着黏性土比例的增加而增加,参数α在一定程度上能够表征进气值的状态。②改良后的碎石土使吸湿系数、凋萎系数、田间持水量、饱和含水量等都随着黏性土比例的增加而增加。相较于碎石土,添加黏性土的改良碎石土可用水量增大22.26%~50.00%,最大有效水量增大70.96%~131.46%,更加有利于植物生长。③3种模型对比下,Philip模型对土壤水分入渗模拟效果最好,吸渗率S大小能够在一定程度上代表初始入渗速率的变化趋势。[结论]综合对比不同比例改良碎石土水分特性可见,当下覆土层为储水层,可选择碎石土与黏性土比例为7∶3作为改良碎石土最佳配比;当下覆土层为非储水层,无法储存水分时,可选择碎石土与黏性土比例为3∶7作为改良碎石土最佳配比。

碎石土细颗粒迁移特征及优先流形成路径

碎石土是一种非连续、非均质的结构性材料,由于内部含有大量碎石块,容易形成架空结构,使其内部形成复杂独特的渗流通道即优先流通道,碎石土优先流通道是包括水分运移和土体细颗粒迁移的复杂过程,但在研究其优先流路径时通常只考虑了水分的运移而忽略了细颗粒的迁移,颗粒迁移与通道形成密切相关。为此,对两种不同级配土柱(粗细颗粒连续级配和间断级配)分别进行饱和渗流-颗粒迁移试验,从细颗粒迁移的角度分析通道形成的时空发展规律。试验结果表明:细颗粒迁移一部分由于流失引起碎石土渗透性增大,另一部分由于重新沉积而堵塞局部孔隙,降低渗透性,两者作用结果最终加速优先流通道形成;连续级配的碎石土形成大面积交叉分布的管网状渗流通道,间断级配的碎石土则形成集中渗流通道;相同水力条件下,不同级配细颗粒迁移的空间分布特征不同,连续级配的碎石土细颗粒迁移不随空间位置的差异而发生变化,间断级配的碎石土细颗粒迁移随空间位置的差异而发生变化,两种级配下碎石土细颗粒主要流失量的粒径范围均在1~0.075 mm;不同水力梯度条件下,连续与间断级配试验细颗粒流失量均随水力梯度增加而增大,间断级配的碎石土破坏时水力梯度小于连续级配破坏时水力梯度,间断级配碎石土更容易发生破坏。研究成果为进一步揭示碎石土优先流形成机理提供试验依据。
