控制基质吸力的非饱和粉质粘土固结试验研究

针对胶济客运专线非饱和原状粉质粘土,在控制基质吸力条件下进行了K0固结试验和常基质吸力固结试验研究,得到了不同含水量土体的侧压力系数,并在此基础上进行常基质吸力固结试验,通过分级施加围压和上覆应力对现场应力状态进行模拟,得到原状粉质粘土的水土特征曲线,进而探讨了非饱和粉质粘土的水土特性及体变规律。试验结果表明:不同含水量的非饱和土体侧压力系数不同,并且侧压力系数随含水量的增加而增加;非饱和原状粉质粘土的进气值约25kPa;土体饱和度对固结时间的影响显著,非饱和粉质粘土的固结速度随着饱和度的增加而减小。

降雨对非饱和粉质粘土基坑土水特性及稳定性的影响研究

本文以沈阳地区典型的非饱和粉质黏土基坑作为研究对象,以降雨期内现场实测数据为基础,分析土体的负孔隙水压力及含水量的动态变化情况,并拟合土水特征曲线(SWCC)数学模型,最后将水土特征曲线引入到非饱和土抗剪强度理论模型中。研究结果表明:降雨对粉质黏土基坑土水特性的主要影响范围为表层0.9m左右,且该地区粉质黏土应用VG模型拟合效果最好。降雨期间,基坑安全系数前期下降较快,后期趋于平缓,且下降速度随着降雨强度的增加而减小,当降雨强度大于粉质黏土的渗透系数时,安全系数趋于一致。降雨量相同时,均匀型降雨较不均匀降雨对基坑的稳定性影响更大,安全系数下降速度快且持续时间长,但各种类型降雨的最小安全系数大致相同。

Evaluation of Effective Stresses and State Surfaces for Unsaturated Clayey Silt

Terzaghi had established soil mechanics as an academic scholarship due to the discovery of the principal of effective stress for saturated soils when he considered the consolidation theory of saturated clay. The reason of the existence of the effective stress is that soil particles and water are composited by incompressible solid and liquid. Although air is very compressible fluid, the principle of effective stress is also used in unsaturated soils in the resent developed numerical analyses. Schrefler＇s equation is most frequently used, but the effective stress is not verified by the experimental results. In this study, the equations for unsaturated soils proposed by Schrefler, Aitchison, Khalili and Khabbaz and Kohgo are compared with using the results of suction controlled consolidometer tests. As a result, the effective stress for unsaturated soils calculated by Schrefler＇s equation was average of them.
