Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of tunnel engineering, and in particular relates to a supergravity model test device and method for simulating progressive instability of a shield excavation face. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing intensification of urban traffic congestion and land space resource conflicts, vigorously developing urban rail transit has become an important way to solve the problems of big cities. The shield method has the advantages of fast construction speed, high degree of mechanization, and little impact on the surrounding environment. It has been widely used in urban rail transit construction. During the tunneling process of the shield machine, the support force provided by the soil compartment or pressurized mud water is used to balance the soil and water pressure in front of the excavation face and reduce the disturbance of the shield excavation to the surrounding strata. However, when the support pressure provided by the shield machine is less than or greater than the water and soil pressure in front of the excavation face, the soil in front of the excavation face will be actively or passively unstable, causing the surface to sink or uplift, and may even cause an instability accident of the excavation face, threatening the safety of the use of existing buildings (structures). Therefore, determining a reasonable limit support pressure is crucial to maintaining the stability of the shield excavation face, which can effectively guide the control of shield construction parameters and reduce the risk of instability of the shield excavation face.
[0003] Since the instability of the shield excavation face is a destructive condition of underground rock and soil, it cannot be analyzed through actual engineering observations. At present, most of the research is done by indoor model tests. Normal gravity scaled model tests cannot restore the site stress and cannot accurately reproduce the mechanical behavior of the soil in front during the shield excavation instability process. The high gravity model test places the model on a high-speed rotating geotechnical centrifuge to obtain a stress state similar to the prototype, thereby simulating the mechanical behavior of the prototype soil. It has become the mainstream test method for studying the stability of the shield excavation face.
[0004] At present, the existing centrifugal test devices for shield excavation face instability mainly include stress-controlled and displacement-controlled types. The stress-controlled device supports the shield excavation face by arranging latex bags filled with compressed air or liquid in the shield shell, gradually reducing the pressure in the latex bags to cause the shield excavation face to become unstable; the displacement-controlled device connects the rigid plate through the loading device to provide support pressure for the excavation face, and controls the rigid plate to move forward and backward to simulate the instability process of the excavation face. However, the support force provided by compressed air is evenly distributed, which does not conform to the characteristics of the change of stratum stress along the depth, resulting in the error of the test results being greatly affected by the depth of the tunnel, especially for deep buried tunnels. Although liquid with the same weight as the foundation soil can also be used to provide the excavation face with support pressure that changes along the depth, since the liquid is in a hydrostatic pressure state, it is often impossible to simultaneously balance the vertical and lateral soil pressures of the stratum. Therefore, the stress-controlled shield excavation face instability device cannot accurately obtain the law of support pressure change during the shield excavation face instability process. Compared with the stress-controlled type, the displacement-controlled device can more accurately reflect the change of support pressure, so it is more suitable for simulating the instability process of the shield excavation face. In the displacement-controlled device, foam strips are generally used to fill the gap between the shield shell and the rigid excavation panel. However, practice has shown that this sealing form is not effective and will cause leakage on the shield excavation face, affecting the accuracy of the test results. In addition, the failure of the seal of the model box will also affect the accuracy of the instability mode of the shield excavation face.
[0005] On the other hand, the current experimental research mainly focuses on the instability of the shield excavation face and the changing law of the support pressure, and lacks in-depth research on the impact of excavation face instability on surface settlement and soil stress transfer mechanism. This is because the surface settlement of the model in the existing experiment is monitored by LVDT displacement sensors or laser displacement sensors, which can only collect settlement data from limited monitoring points, making it difficult to obtain the key characteristics of surface settlement, and contact deformation measurement has a certain interference with the development of settlement.

[0031] (3) The present invention uses multi-eye stereo vision technology to monitor the three-dimensional displacement of the model surface, which has the advantages of high accuracy, low interference, and wide measurement range. It overcomes the shortcomings of contact measurement such as traditional LVDT displacement sensors, and realizes non-contact monitoring of the three-dimensional deformation of the surface during the instability of the shield excavation face, thereby revealing the influence mechanism of the instability of the excavation face on the surface settlement;

Combined with the changes in soil pressure and pore pressure in front of the excavation face, the progressive instability mode of the excavation face and the development characteristics of surface settlement are clarified, and the ultimate support pressure is determined based on the excavation panel displacement-support pressure relationship.
7. A high gravity model test method for simulating progressive instability of shield excavation face according to claim 6, characterized in that: The process of using multi-eye stereo vision technology to analyze the three-dimensional deformation of the model surface in step 8 is as follows: (1) Camera calibration: Install an array camera on the top of the model box, install a calibration plate and LED light strip along the side wall of the model box, and use the Levenber-Marquard method to calibrate the internal and external parameters of the camera; (2) Image processing: Use point operations, neighborhood operations, etc. to pre-process the captured images to improve the image signal-to-noise ratio; The scale-invariant feature transformation method is used to extract feature points from the landmarks in the calibration plate, and the corresponding relationship between the same object point in the model box in different images is determined. Then, the obtained image points are stereo matched using the belief propagation and dynamic programming algorithms to establish the corresponding relationship between the same soil particles in multiple images. (3) Three-dimensional reconstruction: Based on the corresponding coordinates of a point in space in multiple images and combined with the camera parameter matrix, the disparity depth coordinates of each point in the image are obtained. Then, the deep learning algorithm is used to optimize the disparity depth map of each point, thereby reconstructing the spatial coordinates of each pixel in the image and obtaining the three-dimensional displacement field of the model surface.
