Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of civil engineering technology, and in particular to a method for identifying the distribution of stone content in soil-rock mixture samples. Background Technology
[0002] In geotechnical and geological engineering, such as slope (landslide) treatment, foundation pit engineering, and roadbed and bridge foundation projects, a mixture of soil and rock, known as soil-rock mixture, is widely used. Obtaining virgin soil-rock mixture data by sampling the mixture in situ and then conducting geotechnical tests on cylindrical specimens, including direct shear, single shear, ring shear, lateral shear compression, and triaxial tests, and comparing and correcting the data with finite element numerical calculations, is an effective way to gain a deeper understanding of the properties of soil-rock mixtures and to develop and improve soil mechanics theory and numerical calculations.
[0003] In undisturbed soil-rock mixture samples at engineering sites, the stone content is generally not uniformly distributed along the axial and radial directions. However, when modeling soil-rock mixture samples using finite element numerical calculation software, the distribution of stone content along the axial and radial directions in the sample is not known. Therefore, it is generally treated as a uniform distribution of stone content, which causes a difference between the finite element numerical calculation model and the actual soil-rock mixture sample. The comparison and correction of simulation data and experimental data based on this will have a certain degree of error, which is not conducive to the soil mechanics theoretical research of soil-rock mixtures.

[0047] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
[0048] Example 1
[0049] See Figure 1 A method for identifying the stone content distribution of soil-rock mixture samples, comprising the following steps:
[0050] Step 1: Cut the soil-rock mixture sample along the axial direction, acquire the profile digital image of the cut soil-rock mixture sample, remove the background image outside the soil-rock mixture sample profile in the acquired profile digital image and save it.
[0051] Furthermore, in step 1, the acquisition of the profile digital image of the soil-rock mixture sample is achieved by taking a picture of the profile of the soil-rock mixture sample directly in front of a digital camera.
[0052] Furthermore, the profile digital image saved in step 1 is in JPG format.
[0053] Step 2: Obtain the average stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample using the formula for calculating the average stone content.
[0054] Furthermore, step 2 includes the following steps:
[0055] S2.1: Measure the volume V and density ρ of the soil-rock mixture sample in step 1, sieve the cut sample, and separate the rock from the soil.
[0056] S2.2: Weigh the separated stones to obtain the mass m of the separated stones;
[0057] S2.3: Calculate the average stone content, and the formula for calculating the average stone content is as follows:
[0058] α t = 2·m / (ρ·V)×100
[0059] In the formula, α t ρ represents the average stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample, m represents the mass of the separated stones, ρ represents the density of the stones, and V represents the volume of the soil-rock mixture sample.
[0060] Step 3, set the number of axial partitions n1 and radial partitions n2 of the profile digital image, and the gray level h of the boundary between the rock and soil (see...). Figure 2 In this embodiment, the number of axial and radial partitions of the profile digital image is preferably 6 and 3, and the gray level of the boundary between the rock and soil is preferably 150. The saved profile digital image, the average stone content of the cut soil-rock mixture sample, the number of axial and radial partitions of the profile digital image and the gray level of the boundary between the rock and soil are read into the soil-rock mixture stone content distribution recognition software to obtain the R, G, B values of each pixel in the read profile digital image and the number of axial pixels N1 and the number of radial pixels N2 in the profile digital image.
[0061] Step 4: The cross-sectional digital image is partitioned according to the number of axial and radial partitions. The partitioning of the cross-sectional digital image can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 4 The expression for the zone number of the cross-sectional digital image after partitioning is as follows: x1 = 1...n1, x2 = 1...n2, where x1 represents the axial coordinate of a pixel in the profile digital image, and x2 represents the radial coordinate of a pixel in the profile digital image. See details... Figure 3 , Figure 4 .
[0062] Furthermore, the expression for the number of zones in the profile digital image after partitioning in step 4 is as follows:
[0063] M = n1 × n2
[0064] In the formula, M represents the number of zones in the digital profile image after partitioning, n1 represents the number of axial partitions in the digital profile image, and n2 represents the number of radial partitions in the digital profile image.
[0065] Furthermore, the expression for the number of pixels in each region of the cross-sectional digital image is as follows:
[0066] N (x1,x2) = (N1×N2) / (n1×n2)
[0067] In the formula, N (x1,x2) x1 represents the number of pixels in each region of the profile digital image, x2 represents the radial coordinate of the pixels in the profile digital image, N1 represents the number of axial pixels in the profile digital image, N2 represents the number of radial pixels in the profile digital image, n1 represents the number of axial partitions in the profile digital image, and n2 represents the number of radial partitions in the profile digital image.
[0068] Step 5: Using a weighted average method, combining the grayscale values of the boundary between the rock and soil, and the R, G, and B values of each pixel in the profile digital image, the grayscale value of each pixel in the partitioned profile digital image is calculated. Based on the grayscale values of each pixel in the profile digital image, the sum of the grayscale values of pixels in each region of the profile digital image is determined, and the stone content identification formula is used to preliminarily identify the stone content of each region of the profile digital image. The partitioning of the profile digital image after grayscale value calculation is described in [reference needed]. Figure 5 The preliminary identification results of the stone content in each region of the profile digital image in this embodiment are shown below. Figure 6 .
[0069] Furthermore, the formula for calculating the grayscale value of each pixel in the cross-sectional digital image after partitioning in step 5 is as follows:

[0075] Step 6: Sum the stone content of each region in the preliminarily identified digital profile image from Step 5 to obtain the sum of the stone content of each region in the digital profile image. Then, use the stone content correction formula to correct the stone content of the preliminarily identified digital image to obtain the final stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample. The corrected stone content results for each region of the digital profile image in this embodiment are shown in [reference needed]. Figure 7 .
[0076] Furthermore, in step 6, the stone content correction formula is used to correct the stone content of the initially identified digital image, resulting in the final stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample, including:
[0077] S6.1: Determine the stone content correction coefficient based on the average stone content of the cut soil-rock mixture sample and the number of axial and radial partitions in the digital profile image;
[0078] S6.2: Correct the stone content of each area of the preliminarily identified profile digital image based on the stone content correction coefficient to obtain the final stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample.
[0079] The expression for the stone content correction coefficient is as follows:
[0080] γ=(α t ·n1·n2) / α' sum
[0081] In the formula, γ represents the stone content correction coefficient, and α t α' represents the average stone content of the cut soil-rock mixture sample, n1 represents the number of axial partitions in the digital profile image, n2 represents the number of radial partitions in the digital profile image, and α' sum The lithology of each zone in the digital cross-section image is represented by the lithology.
[0082] The expression for the corrected stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample is as follows:
[0083] α (x1,x2) =γ·α' (x1,x2)
[0084] In the formula, α (x1,x2) γ represents the corrected stone content of the soil-rock mixture sample, α' represents the stone content correction coefficient, and α' represents the corrected stone content. (x1,x2) The lithology represents the lithology of each region in the digital cross-sectional image. In this embodiment, the initial lithology and α' sum The percentage is 630.3%, the stone content correction factor γ is 0.93, and the corrected results for the stone content distribution in each area are as follows: Figure 7 As shown.
[0085] The present invention has been described above by way of example. It should be noted that any simple modifications, alterations or other equivalent substitutions that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort without departing from the core of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
