Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of soil testing, and in particular to a soil creep testing system and a testing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Infrastructure construction, such as buildings, transportation, water conservancy, and mining, involves numerous slope stability issues. Slopes can undergo various forms of deformation and failure during construction, such as landslides and collapses. Preventing these issues has long been a key research topic in this field, but this research presents numerous challenges, one of which is the inability to simulate soil creep in real time.
[0003] At present, soil creep tests are mainly divided into two major research topics: microscopic and macroscopic. The research on microscopic creep tests uses optical microscopes or electron scanning microscopes to observe the microscopic structure of the soil and use microscopic mechanisms to explain the creep characteristics of the soil. However, at present, only qualitative explanations can be achieved, and quantitative descriptions are still somewhat difficult.
[0004] Macro creep tests are divided into field creep tests and indoor creep tests. With the help of test instruments, through a series of test steps, the stress-strain-time relationship of the soil is studied to obtain the creep mechanical properties of the soil.
[0005] In-situ creep testing measures creep behavior of geotechnical materials, such as long-term foundation settlement and slope displacement. The results can better reflect the influence of structural and crack characteristics of geotechnical materials. Instruments used for in-situ creep testing include bearing plate instruments, large direct shear instruments, convergence instruments, station-hole multi-point displacement meters, inclinometers, and interferometers. In-situ creep testing provides firsthand data and is therefore of great guiding significance and value to specific projects. While in-situ creep testing offers simple instrumentation, it is also expensive, time-consuming, and susceptible to significant external interference. In particular, it lacks the ability to actively control the soil's stress state, stress path, and boundary conditions, which can affect the results.
[0006] Indoor creep testing involves testing the creep mechanical properties of soil specimens using a creep instrument within a laboratory. Indoor creep testing allows for controlled conditions such as stress, strain, and drainage, which are difficult to control in in-situ creep testing. Therefore, only indoor creep testing can investigate the complex properties of soils. Indoor testing has attracted considerable attention due to its advantages, such as strict control of stress, strain, and drainage, good repeatability, lack of external interference, and relatively low cost. The creep testing instruments used for indoor creep testing fall into two categories: those that directly apply shear forces, such as direct shear instruments and torsional shear instruments; and those that utilize tension or compression for creep testing, such as tensile creep instruments and compression creep instruments. Existing creep testing equipment suffers from a range of issues, including limited instrument functionality, overly simplistic test stress paths, manual tiered loading, and non-standardized test reading methods.
[0007] In many geotechnical engineering projects, soil cracks occur during loading, often due to tensile failure. For example, cracking is common in clay soils behind retaining walls and in clay slope landslides. When the slope soil deforms to a certain extent, shear or tensile failure occurs, resulting in cracks. These cracks are typically large and penetrate deep into the slope, posing a serious threat to soil slope projects. This is especially true for structural loess slopes, where relatively small displacements and sudden failures often lead to catastrophic consequences. Therefore, the long-term tensile and shear creep strengths of soils significantly impact the stability of geotechnical structures and slopes. In foundations, soil instability can occur under load due to shear failure under compression. For example, during the construction of high-rise buildings, foundations undergo compressive deformation, leading to shear failure and failure. Therefore, the long-term compressive and shear creep strengths of soils significantly impact the stability of soil foundations. The long-term movement of geological structures will cause deformation of the earth's crust, which will have a certain torsional shear deformation effect on the surface soil. In this case, it is of certain significance to study the long-term shear creep strength of the soil.
[0008] While studying the long-term creep strength of soils, attention should be paid to three other aspects: long-term tensile creep strength, long-term compressive creep strength, and long-term shear creep strength. While the shear and compressive creep strengths of soils are well-researched, there is no corresponding research on uniaxial tensile creep strength, triaxial tensile creep strength, uniaxial torsional shear creep strength, and triaxial torsional shear creep strength. Further research in these areas is highly valuable. Summary of the Invention

[0091] The front view of the control panel is shown in the attached Figure 5 As mentioned above, the back side is as attached Figure 6 As shown, a liquid crystal screen is provided on the control panel.
[0092] Among them, power supply: instrument power switch, when the red light is on, the power is on;
[0093] Power socket: 220V AC power socket, connected to the power cord, with a fuse slot at the bottom, and a replaceable fuse;
[0094] Pore pressure: Pore pressure sensor socket;
[0095] Confining pressure: confining pressure sensor socket;
[0096] Back pressure: back pressure sensor socket;
[0097] Confining pressure control: confining pressure control motor socket;
[0098] Back pressure control: Back pressure control motor socket;
[0099] The system uses a liquid crystal display with a full Chinese menu and is equipped with a small number of function keys to achieve various complex functions and controls in the test. It is simple to operate and easy to use.
[0100] The system control menus are located at the bottom of the LCD screen, corresponding to the six function keys (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, and F6). Pressing the key directly below the menu will perform the function described in the menu. Hereinafter, "pressing the key corresponding to a menu" will be referred to as "pressing the menu key." For example, the "Settings" menu corresponds to the F2 key, so pressing the "Settings key" is equivalent to pressing the F2 key.
[0101] Turn on the instrument and the LCD screen will display Figure 7 Press the "Settings" button, and the LCD screen will display the following interface: Figure 8 The interface shown. Press the "Back" key to return to Figure 7 The interface shown is shown; the " key" and " key" are used to select the "coefficient calibration" and "time setting" menus, and the selected ones are displayed in reverse color; press the "OK key" to implement the function of the selected menu.
[0102] exist Figure 8 In the interface shown, press " key" or " key" to select "Time Setting", and press "OK" to enter the Figure 9 In the interface shown, set the time.
[0103] Press the "Back" button to return to the previous interface (i.e. Figure 8 ).
[0104] Specific method of time setting:
[0105] First press the "←→" selection key to select the part to be modified (cycle through year, month, day, hour, minute, and second), then use the "plus and minus keys" to modify the corresponding value. After the time is set, press the "start key" to start normal timing.
[0106] The soil creep test system in the present invention uses pressure units of KPa and adopts 20-point multi-point calibration to basically eliminate the nonlinear error of the sensor. Figure 8In the interface shown, press " key" or " key" to select "Coefficient Calibration", and press "OK" to enter the following interface: Figure 10 In the interface shown, perform coefficient calibration.
[0107] Press the "Back" button to return to the previous interface (i.e. Figure 8 ).
[0108] The following are the descriptions of each item on this interface:
[0109] Channel: Displays the current channel. As shown in the figure, "01 Confining Pressure" indicates that the current display is the first channel, which is used for the confining pressure sensor. The "Select Key" cycles through channels. Each press increments the channel number, and the cycle repeats.
[0110] Range: Displays the range of the channel sensor. In the figure, "2000" indicates that the range of the pressure sensor is 2000 kPa. This can be set using the "Range Key".
[0111] Point: Displays the point number currently being recorded during the calibration process and the pressure (or other) value at that point.
[0112] Calibration points: Displays the number of calibration points, usually 20.
[0113] Current value: Displays the digital value after the current analog output of the sensor is converted. The display will be refreshed in real time and change with the changes in the measured value of the channel.
[0114] Gain: Displays the sensor signal amplification factor, which can be set using the "Gain Key." This provides an expandable platform for system upgrades and adaptability to different sensor types.
[0115] The specific method of coefficient calibration is: enter Figure 10 After the interface is displayed,
[0116] 1. Use the "Select key" to select the channel to be calibrated.
[0117] 2. Press the "Gain Key" to set the appropriate gain for the selected channel sensor.
[0118] Each time you press the "Gain Key", the gain increases by one level, and the display cycles from 1 to 128. The displayed value is the current set value.
[0119] (Note: This function is only available on models with gain control)
[0120] 3. Press the "Range Key" to set the range of the selected channel sensor.
[0121] After pressing the "Range Key," the cursor will flash in the range field. Use the "←→" keys to select the value to be modified, and then use the "plus and minus keys" to modify the corresponding value. Once the input is correct, press the "OK Key" to complete the range setting.
[0122] 4. Press the "calibration key" to start calibration.
[0123] After pressing the "calibration key", the LCD screen will show Figure 11 As shown, the "Point" column displays 0.0000, the "Calibration Point" column displays 20, and the menu changes. Now, reduce the pressure (or other measured value) of the pressure sensor (or other device) to 0 and press the "Record" button. The "Point" column on the screen now displays "Point 1." The original 0.0000 in this column becomes the next value to be calibrated. Add the pressure (or other measured value) to the displayed value and press "Record" again. After calibrating all 20 points, the "Record" button changes to the "Save" button. Press the "Save" button to save the calibration values. During the test, the system will use this calibration as a reference to calculate the measured values for that channel.
[0124] Regarding the use of the "Abort" button: To mitigate the effects of sensor nonlinearity on measurement, the system employs a 20-point multi-point calibration. These 20-point calibration values are calculated by dividing the range into 20 equal parts, increasing by one level at a time. For example, if the range is 2000, the starting point is 0, the first point is 100, the second point is 200, the third point is 300, and so on. The standard measuring instrument used for calibration may not have a standard value for the point we want to calibrate. For example, if the measuring instrument cannot measure the point 300, pressing the "Abort" button will abandon the calibration of that point and continue calibrating other points without affecting the calibration process or sensor measurement. It can also be considered that the fixed 20-point calibration can actually be converted to calibration with any number of points. For less demanding applications, calibrating the 0 point and any other point can complete the calibration and achieve measurement.
[0125] Regarding the "Load" and "Unload" buttons: When calibrating ambient backpressure, you can add a standard pressure gauge to the ambient backpressure line. Pressing the "Load" and "Unload" buttons controls the pressure regulator to increase and decrease pressure, adjusting to the desired pressure value for calibration. The system provides this adjustment interface. However, for calibration of other sensors, other methods are required to adjust the measured value and then record the calibration.
[0126] Note: The range, gain, and standard values for each point will be saved only after correctly completing steps 1, 2, 3, and 4. If an error occurs during calibration, press the "Cancel" button when the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons appear on the screen after 20 points have passed. Alternatively, press the "Return" button during calibration and then re-enter the calibration interface. This will not affect the previously saved range, gain, and standard values for each point.
[0127] When recalibrating the sensor, please do not change the range and gain. Try to use the factory default values unless the sensor is replaced.
[0128] Furthermore, when performing the confining pressure and back pressure control, turn on the controller power and the LCD screen will display the following Figure 7 Press the "Test" button, and the LCD screen will display the following interface: Figure 12 The interface shown.
[0129] The first line of the screen displays the date and time; the second line displays the current set values of the ambient and back pressures (the values that need to be stabilized); the third line displays the actual measured pressure values of the ambient and back pressures in real time.
[0130] There are corresponding "Set Key" and "Stable Pressure Key" under the Confining Pressure and Back Pressure columns.
[0131] Press the "Set" key corresponding to the surrounding pressure or counter pressure column, and the cursor will flash in the column. Figure 13 The interface is shown. Use the "←→" keys to select the value to be modified, then use the "plus and minus" keys to modify the corresponding value. Once the input is correct, press the "OK" key to complete the set value. After setting, press the "Stability" key, and the controller will automatically increase or decrease the pressure to the set value, continuously compensating to maintain the set value. During the voltage stabilization process, the "Stability" key becomes the "Stop" key. To stop the voltage stabilization, press the "Stop" key.
[0132] The surrounding pressure and back pressure can be set to different stabilization values respectively and stabilized at the same time without affecting each other.
[0133] Notice:
[0134] When using for the first time or after a long period of non-use, the pipeline must be vented by using the "fill" and "drain" functions, repeatedly filling and draining.
[0135] When not in use for a long time, drain all the water in the controller and start the water pump several times from time to time to prevent rust.
[0136] The water in the water bottle should be replaced regularly to keep it clean. It should not be turbid or contain dirt or impurities. Otherwise, the instrument may malfunction and shorten its service life.
[0137] If the sample contains corrosive media such as acid or alkali, after the test, all water in the controller should be drained immediately, and the water in the water storage bottle should be replaced. Use the "fill" and "drain" functions to clean the pipeline to avoid corrosion.
[0138] When filling or draining a container, please do not leave to avoid large amounts of water overflowing or prolonged operation of the pump.

[0167] S35: Install the upper cover on the pressure chamber base. Make sure the sealing ring of the pressure chamber base is sealed in the groove. At the same time, make sure the upper cover is sealed tightly, otherwise it will cause leakage. When loading the soil sample, place permeable stone and filter paper at the bottom and top of the soil sample in sequence. Place an impermeable board above and below the soil sample.
[0168] Furthermore, the specifications of the film-bearing cylinder are shown in Table 1.
[0169] Table 1 Specifications of film cylinder
[0170]

It consists of an upper cover, a base, a permeable stone and a three-petal tube. The specifications of the saturator are shown in Table 2.
[0172] Table 2 Saturator specifications
[0173]
[0174] Specifically, place the cut sample in a three-lobed tube, put on a hoop, cut off the excess soil at the top and bottom, and place a piece of filter paper at each end. Place the soil sample tube on the permeable stone in the base, then place another permeable stone on the bucket, install the nylon cover, tighten the disc nut, and then place it in the saturation equipment for saturation.
[0175] After the sample is saturated, loosen the hoop and push the three petals in sequence along the axial direction by hand to remove the soil.

[0185] Specifically, a triaxial creep test is performed on soil sample 0, and confining pressure is applied around soil sample 0. At the same time, the air pump 7 is started. The airflow of the air pump 7 expands the air film in the reaction frame base 201, driving the lifting plate 207 to rise. The pressure rod 204 applies axial pressure to the soil sample 0, the deformation sensor 205 collects the deformation displacement of soil sample 0, and the pore pressure sensor 612 collects the void pressure, which is transmitted to the multi-channel controller 4 through the displacement channel 401 and the pore pressure channel 402, and then transmitted to the computer 5 through the USB connection.

S32: Insert a rubber tube onto the air nozzle of the membrane tube, connect an ear cleaning bulb to the end of the rubber tube to suck out the air between the latex membrane and the tube wall, so that the latex membrane is tightly attached to the membrane tube wall; S33: Put the membrane tube with latex film on the pre-prepared soil sample, first turn over the lower latex film to tighten it around the soil sample placement table, and then seal it with a rubber band; then turn over the upper latex film, loosen the ear cleaning bulb, and remove the membrane tube; S34: Pull down the piston rod to contact the top surface of the soil sample and seal it with a rubber band; S35: Install the upper cover on the pressure chamber base. Note that the sealing ring of the pressure chamber base must be in the sealing groove. At the same time, pay attention to the sealing of the upper cover, otherwise it will cause leakage.
