膏岩三轴压缩试验及高温相变特征研究

采用伺服刚性试验机对天然膏岩开展三轴压缩试验,研究了温度及围压对膏岩强度及变形特性的影响。结果表明,膏岩在不同围压下均具有良好的塑性流动特性,加载后无明显的剪切破坏面,而是出现明显的侧向膨胀。根据三轴试验结果,利用摩尔-库仑定律得到了膏岩的强度准则及抗剪强度参数。升高温度导致膏岩强度降低,且高温下石膏发生晶型转变,从二水石膏脱水转变为半水石膏,利用扫描电镜和X衍射对此过程进行了研究。脱水过程导致瞬间孔隙应力增加,膏岩破坏特性由延性转变为脆性。随着持续加载,破裂断面逐渐愈合。膏岩显著的塑性流动能力及快速的裂隙愈合能力对于天然气盖层的封闭稳定性具有重要意义。     

Sound Velocity of Seafloor Sediment and its Response under Axial Stress-Strain

The results of axial stress-strain measurements made from short columnar samples of seafloor shallow surface sediment in the southern South China Sea area indicate that there are three kinds of variations in the longitudinal wave sound velocity, which are related to such characteristics as physical-mechanical properties, grain contact status and grain structure and microstructure of the submarine shallow surface sediment. This study may make theoretical contributions to further understanding the reliability of various submarine sediments in the southern South China Sea as bearing interfaces and such scientific objectives as phonotelemetering and remote sensing of the engineering mechanical properties of seafloor sediment.     

Study of dilatancy behaviors of calcareous soils in a triaxial test

Abstract

In this article, the dilatancy of calcareous soil is studied systematically based on triaxial consolidation drainage shear tests, and the difference in dilatancy between calcareous soil and siliceous soil is also investigated. It was found that: ① Calcareous soil experience obvious dilated deformation. Dilatancy tendency increases with increasing related density and decreases with increasing confining pressure. ② The volumetric strain rate initially increases from negative to positive. After it reaches a maximum, there is a small decrease in the volumetric strain rate, but it is still greater than zero, and the stress-strain curves are of softening type. ③ For the same condition, the dilatancy deformation of calcareous sand begins later than that of siliceous sand, and the volume compression before dilatancy is also larger for calcareous sand. ④ The critical state alone cannot accurately describe the entire deformation process of soil, and it is proposed that the phase transformation state be added to the standard method used to assess soil dilatation and contraction. ⑤ Based on the statistical analysis of experimental data, mathematical relationships were established between void ratio, relative density, and effective confining pressure of phase transformation state and critical state, respectively.

• The difference in dilatancy between calcareous sand and siliceous sand was compared

• The phase-transformation state and critical state were compared with the axial strain, volumetric strain and deviatoric stress.

• Using phase-transformation void ratio and critical void ratio to describe the whole deformation process of calcareous sand is proposed.

• The mathematical expressions of phase-transformation void ratio and critical void ration were given, respectively.

考虑主应力方向变化的原状软黏土应力应变性状试验研究

为反映真实工程条件下主应力轴旋转应力路径引起土体性状的变化,对杭州地区正常固结原状软黏土在固结不排水的主应力轴定向剪切和主应力轴单调旋转条件下的应力-应变关系进行试验研究。研究发现,不同主应力方向的定向剪切路径下,随主应力方向变化,试样中各应变发挥程度显著不同,但破坏时的临界八面体应变变化较为稳定,且当八面体应变达到5%时,强度发挥程度已接近甚至超过90%。若剪切过程中增加了主应力幅值不变的不排水主应力轴单调旋转应力路径,只要破坏时主应力方向一致,经历与未经历主应力轴旋转试样的临界应变分量接近,但主应力轴旋转会影响加载阶段试样主应力、主应变增量方向所表现出的不共轴性,并且此影响随旋转时剪应力水平的提高而趋于显著,即使在临界破坏状态下依然明显。试验结果表明,由于土体原生各向异性、黏塑性等性质的存在,并不适宜用相关联流动法则来分析主应力轴旋转条件下土体的应力-应变关系特征。     

循环荷载下南京片状细砂的动应力——应变关系

以片状颗粒成分为主的片状结构砂与常用的圆形颗粒标准石英砂相比,在物理力学特性上有显著的差异。循环荷载作用下,饱和砂土振动孔压上升会导致土体刚度发生软化,当振动孔压累积达到一定水平时,会产生液化现象,从而引起土体结构发生破坏。采用英国WFI动三轴仪,研究了南京片状细砂在循环荷载作用下,静偏应力水平、循环应力比水平和循环次数对其动应力一应变关系的影响,考虑每一次循环过程中动应力—应变关系滞回曲线的卸载及再加载割线动剪切模量Gsec和最大割线模量Gmax的变化特性,建立了动剪模量软化的经验公式;静偏应力水平对动剪模量软化有显著影响,随着循环次数的增加,动应力—应变滞回圈逐渐向应变累积方向滑移和向应变轴方向倾斜,且彼此分离;考虑循环软化特性,采用修正的Masing准则,描述了循环荷载下南京片状细砂的动应力—应变关系。     

模拟应变软化岩石三轴试验过程曲线

在经典弹塑性理论框架下,认为岩石材料在应变软化过程中遵守摩尔-库仑强度准则,塑性变形服从非关联流动法则。对两组岩石在三轴试验中呈现的应变软化行为进行了分析,获取了峰值前后强度参数的大小。采用应变软化模拟方法,将应力-应变曲线峰后应变软化阶段简化为一系列应力跌落和塑性流动的脆塑性过程,在给定的强度参数演化规律基础上,得到了岩石的应力-应变曲线、侧向应变-轴向应变曲线、体应变-轴向应变曲线和塑性体应变-轴向塑性应变曲线。模拟得到的应力-应变曲线与试验结果吻合较好,其他曲线与相关试验测试规律基本一致。研究成果对确定岩石强度参数与认识岩石峰后强度演化规律有一定的指导意义。     

基于南水模型的钙质砂应力−应变关系模拟

钙质砂是一种海洋生物成因的特殊岩土材料,具有颗粒性状不规则、易破碎的特点,表现出与石英砂不同的力学性质。为模拟钙质砂在不同应力水平下的应力?应变关系,首先分析南水模型的不足：即无法描述应力不变情况下应变无限增长的特点和不能描述钙质砂的剪胀性;然后通过在切线模量中引入应力比与峰值应力比的比值,合理考虑了颗粒破碎的影响;提出了切线模量和切线体积比与应力比间的函数关系式,使得改进后的模型能较好地描述应变?体变关系。同时,将孔隙压力系数引入到孔隙压力表达式中,较好地模拟了三轴不排水剪切试验结果。与现有的模型相比,改进后的模型表达式简单易懂,参数获取更为方便。
