Uniaxial creep testing device and method for frozen earth with temperature gradient

Abstract

The invention discloses a uniaxial creep testing device and a uniaxial creep testing method for frozen earth with a temperature gradient. The device consists of a pressure cover, a height adjusting cushion block, a convex pedestal, an upper refrigerating plate, a lower refrigerating plate and heat insulation plates, wherein a piston and a vacuumizing channel are arranged at the upper part of the pressure cover in a sliding way, and refrigerating fluid circulating channels and a test lead wire channel are formed in the convex pedestal. In the testing process, the heat insulation plate, the lower refrigerating plate, a sample, the upper refrigerating plate, the heat insulation plate and the pressure cover are sequentially mounted on the convex pedestal, and the space between the convex pedestal and the pressure cover is sealed by an O-shaped seal ring; an adiabatic boundary condition required by the sample is realized by vacuumizing in the pressure cover; the vertical temperature gradient of the sample is realized by regulating cold medium temperatures in the upper refrigerating plate and the lower refrigerating plate; and a creep load required by the sample is realized by regulating the forced direction and size of the piston. According to the uniaxial creep testing device and the uniaxial creep testing method, a unidirectional stress state and the stable adiabatic boundary condition can be provided, and the device and the method are suitable for research of uniaxial creep characteristics of the frozen earth under the conditions of different temperature gradients and scales.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a geotechnical test device and method, in particular to a frozen soil uniaxial creep test device and method with a temperature gradient. Background technique [0002] Permafrost is a temperature-sensitive material, and mastering the influence of temperature on the deformation strength of permafrost has important reference value and scientific significance for the design and stability evaluation of buildings / structures on permafrost foundations. Whether it is natural frozen soil (such as seasonal frozen soil in Northeast China, permafrost in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau) or artificial frozen soil (such as artificially frozen extra-thick topsoil and water-bearing soft rock in East China and Mongolia-Shanxi region), it is affected by formation temperature, atmospheric Due to the combined effects of temperature, refrigerant temperature, exposure time and good environmental conditions, the temperature field of the permafrost medium is a ty...

Problems solved by technology

The uniform temperature frozen soil test block test belongs to the important factor that the material unit test cannot cover the temperature gradient factor. The model test belongs to the indoor scale test of the actual frozen soil engineering. Although it can reflect the actual temperature gradient factor and the characteristics of time and space distribution, it cannot directly
