无黏性土的压缩特性及模型

我国南海神狐海域海底沉积物主要由钙质砂与无黏性土组成,其力学性质对海洋工程的稳定性具有显著影响。无黏性土的压缩特性是研究其力学性能的重要内容之一,为分析不同荷载作用下土样的压缩特性,利用高压三轴仪试验系统,开展了不同砂含量及不同初始孔隙比下无黏性土样的等向压缩试验。试验结果表明:在试验采用的高有效应力下,无黏性土具有显著的过渡土性质,初始组构难以被改变;随多孔易碎钙质砂含量的增加,土样可压缩性和压缩曲线的收敛度均增加,钙质砂的破碎显著改变了初始组构。提出可以描述含砂无黏性土压缩特性的数学模型,所含参数物理意义明确且易于确定。与不同砂土压缩试验数据对比发现,该模型对其他种类土同样具有较好的拟合度,验证了本模型的广泛适用性。与已有压缩模型的对比,验证了本模型的实用性,为无黏性土应力-应变关系的理论研究提供基础。

盐溶液饱和黏土的力学行为模拟

由于黏性土表面带有丰富的负电荷,孔隙水溶液化学状态的变化对黏性土的物理力学特性存在明显影响。随着化学-力学耦合的相关岩土工程问题日益突出,进行有效的化学-力学耦合行为的数值分析评价显得尤为重要。因此,建立一个简单有效的考虑化学-力学耦合的本构模型是非常关键的。基于传统的修正剑桥模型,提出了一个简单的化学-力学耦合模型。该模型采用渗透吸力π描述孔隙水的化学状态,建立了前期屈服应力,临界状态线斜率M和弹性刚度与渗透吸力π之间的关系式,从而实现了模型对盐溶液饱和黏性土的变形和强度特性的有效模拟。通过与试验数据的对比和分析,说明该模型能有效地模拟孔隙盐溶液饱和黏性土的等向压缩行为、 状态下压缩行为以及 状态下化学-力学循环加载行为。此外,通过对黏性土三轴压缩试验的模拟,说明该模型能反映黏性土三轴应力状态下的基本力学特征。

考虑颗粒破碎的粗粒土剪胀性统一本构模型

粗粒土作为无黏性散粒状材料具有状态依赖特性,土体的剪切特性受密度和应力水平影响。易破碎是粗粒土的另一个特点,颗粒破碎影响粗粒土的剪胀、内摩擦角、峰值强度和渗透系数。为了能够准确地描述粗粒土的应力-应变关系,采用初始状态参量描述粗粒土的内部状态,根据三轴试验数据建立考虑颗粒破碎耗能的应力-应变关系,采用相关联流动法则推导考虑颗粒破碎的粗粒土剪胀性“统一本构模型”,并建立初始状态参量与模型参数之间的关系。所建立的统一本构模型既考虑了颗粒破碎对剪胀、内摩擦角的影响,又考虑了剪切特性对土体初始状态的依赖。采用变异粒子群算法拟合试验曲线,确定模型参数。模型计算结果能够很好地拟合试验曲线。采用同一组参数对假定的初始状态进行模拟计算,计算结果表明,模型能够模拟不同初始密度和应力水平下粗粒土变形的一般规律。     

超固结土热黏弹塑性本构关系

热黏弹塑性本构模型是描述土在温度（热）和时间（黏）耦合作用下的应力-应变关系的本构模型。在一些新型岩土工程诸如高放核废料地质处置、地热资源开发与贮存的建设中,需要同时考虑温度和时间对土的影响,所以建立一个热黏弹塑性本构模型具有理论和实际意义。将温度变化对黏土体积和强度参数的影响引入笔者之前提出的超固结土等向应力-应变-时间关系,建立了一个等向应力条件下的应力-应变-时间-温度关系。随后,基于该关系推导了屈服面硬化定律,并将其与超固结土统一硬化模型的屈服方程和流动法则结合,建立了超固结土的热黏弹塑性本构模型。最后,使用新模型预测室内试验,证明新模型能够反映时间和温度对土体积、一维压缩曲线和前期固结压力的耦合影响。

无黏性土的应力-应变关系可以用Gudehus-Bauer亚塑性本构模型来模拟,该模型强调应力增量的大小和方向不仅与当前应力状态有关,而且还取决于当前应变增量的大小和方向。为分析其与传统弹塑性理论的不同之处,对Gudehus-Bauer理论的线性项和非线性项进行了研究,并对不同初始孔隙比下Gudehus-Bauer亚塑性模型的应力-应变关系进行了探讨。结果表明Gudehus-Bauer亚塑性模型不用把应变分为弹性和塑性部分就能考虑不可逆变形,并能体现密砂的剪胀特性和应变软化特性以及松砂的剪缩特性和应变硬化特性。

为了模拟实际工程中黄土在不排水条件下的破坏,在控制含水率不变条件下,利用非饱和土真三轴仪对不同初始吸力非饱和原状黄土进行了等向固结试验和不同中主应力参数b值的剪切试验,研究了非饱和原状黄土的力学特性。研究结果表明：真三轴等向压缩屈服应力随着初始吸力的增大而增大,吸力随着净平均应力的增大而减小,净平均应力对吸力的影响程度随着初始吸力的增大而增大。不同 值条件下,广义剪应力和净平均应力破坏状态线近似呈平行直线关系,广义剪应力和有效净平均球应力试验点可归一为饱和土的排水剪切破坏状态线;剪切破坏时吸力随着b值的增大基本呈线性增大趋势;孔隙比和净平均应力对数临界状态线近似呈线性平行关系,其斜率比饱和土大,且大于等向压缩屈服前的斜率;非饱和土孔隙比和有效净平均球应力对数临界状态线与饱和土的临界状态线近似呈线性平行关系;不同净围压条件下,不同 值非饱和土与饱和土的破坏状态孔隙比的比值与气体饱和度的试验点分布于1.0～1.2的直线带内,但同一净有效球应力条件下可以归一为一条非线性曲线。     

A bounding surface model for unsaturated soils considering the microscopic pore structure and interparticle bonding effect due to water menisci

The interparticle bonding effect due to water menisci plays an important role in the hydromechanical coupling properties of unsaturated soils. This paper presents an unsaturated hydromechanical coupling model that considers the influence of matric suction, degree of saturation, and microscopic pore structure on the interparticle bonding effect. The enhanced effective stress and bonding variable are selected as constitutive variables. The bonding variable is correlated with the ratio between unsaturated void ratio and saturated void ratio. The deformation characteristics of unsaturated soils are described based on the bounding surface plasticity theory. A soil–water characteristic model that considers deformation and hydraulic hysteresis is integrated into the constitutive model to achieve hydromechanical coupling. The proposed model can effectively describe the hydromechanical coupling characteristics and the meniscus bonding force of unsaturated bimodal structure soils; the model parameters can be easily obtained through routine experiments. The experimental results of unsaturated isotropic compression, the wetting/drying cycle, and unsaturated triaxial shear tests are used to validate the capability of the proposed model.

     

Coupled modelling of hydro‐mechanical behaviour of unsaturated compacted expansive soils

The Barcelona basic model cannot predict the mechanical behaviour of unsaturated expansive soils, whereas the Barcelona expansive model (BExM) can only predict the stress–strain behaviour of unsaturated expansive soils without the water‐retention behaviour being incorporated. Moreover, the micro‐parameters and the coupling function between micro‐structural and macro‐structural strains in the BExM are difficult to determine. Experimental data show that the compression curves for non‐expansive soils under constant suctions are shifted towards higher void ratios with increasing suction, whereas the opposite is true for expansive soils. According to the observed water‐retention behaviour of unsaturated expansive soils, the air‐entry value increases with density, and the relationship between the degree of saturation and void ratio is linear at constant suction. According to the above observation, an elastoplastic constitutive model is developed for predicting the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of unsaturated expansive soils, based on the existing hydro‐mechanical model for non‐expansive unsaturated soil. The model takes into consideration the effect of degree of saturation on the mechanical behaviour and that of void ratio on the water‐retention behaviour. The concept of equivalent void ratio curve is introduced to distinguish the plastic potential curve from the yield curve. The model predictions are compared with the test results of an unsaturated expansive soil, including swelling tests under constant net stress, isotropic compression tests and triaxial shear tests under constant suction. The comparison indicates that the model offers great potential for quantitatively predicting the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of unsaturated expansive soils.

海相软土压缩特性的试验研究

对不同取样方式得到的上海、江苏地区海相软黏土的原状样和重塑样进行了单向压缩和等向压缩试验,分别得到各自的压缩曲线、压缩指数 和回弹指数 。通过比较原状样、重塑样的归一化压缩曲线的差异,确认了结构性对软黏土压缩特性的影响。把屈服应力后的压缩曲线外延至10 kPa时的孔隙比定义为参考孔隙比 ,用于简单量化土的组构。根据多次单向压缩试验结果得到的压缩指数 ,建立了原状样和重塑样的压缩指数 与孔隙比 或参考孔隙比 的相关方程,并通过单向、等向压缩指数的比较,认为此方程也适用于等向压缩试验结果。根据原状、重塑样压缩指数 与参考孔隙比 具有基本相同关系的结论,对原状样的结构屈服特性进行了探讨,认为原状样在压力大于结构屈服应力后,胶结已基本破坏,原状样和重塑样压缩特性差异主要是由组构的差异引起的。该研究成果,尤其是压缩指数 与参考孔隙比 的相关方程,可为工程提供重要的参考。

A density‐dependent elastoplastic hydro‐mechanical model for unsaturated compacted soils

This paper presents a three‐dimensional elastoplastic constitutive model for predicting the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils. It is based on experimental results obtained from a series of controlled‐suction triaxial tests on unsaturated compacted clay with different initial densities. Hydraulic hysteresis in the water‐retention behaviour is modelled as an elastoplastic process, with the elastic part modelled by a series of scanning curves and the elastoplastic part modelled by the main drying and wetting curves. The effect of void ratio on the water‐retention behaviour is studied using data obtained from controlled‐suction wetting–drying cyclic tests on unsaturated compacted clay with different initial densities. The effect of the degree of saturation on the stress–strain‐strength behaviour and the effect of void ratio on the water‐retention behaviour are considered in the model, as is the effect of suction on the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour. The initial density dependency of the compacted soil behaviour is modelled by experimental relationships between the initial density and the corresponding yield stress and, thereby, between the initial density and the normal compression line. The model is generalized to three‐dimensional stress states by assuming that the shapes of the failure and yield surfaces in the deviatoric stress plane are given by the Matsuoka–Nakai criterion. Model predictions of the stress–strain and water‐retention behaviour are compared with those obtained from triaxial tests with different initial densities under isotropic compression, triaxial compression and triaxial extension, with or without variation in suction. The comparisons indicate that the model accurately predicts the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of unsaturated compacted soils with different initial densities using the same material constant.

Mathematical model for isotropic compression behaviour of cemented soil cured under stress

A mathematical model is proposed to simulate isotropic compression test results obtained for specimens of silty sand mixed with different cement contents and cured at different void ratios. The ability of the model to represent the isotropic test results of specimens with different cement contents cured at high and low void ratios under high confining stresses was successfully checked. The physical meanings of the parameters established by the model were also evaluated. Finally, the applicability of the model to other artificially cemented soils was demonstrated.
