Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of civil engineering test, and in particular to a structure and foundation prototype test device and method under multi-axial loading in a full environment. Background Art
[0002] Due to their high bearing capacity and good economic efficiency, underground structures such as deep foundations have been widely used in various fields such as offshore wind power, ports and docks, rail transit, and high-rise buildings. The size of underground structures such as deep foundations depends on factors such as geological conditions, building types, and load size. Specifically, underground structures are generally subject to loads from all directions, including vertical compressive loads such as superstructures, vertical anti-buoyancy loads to resist other external forces such as water buoyancy and wind, and horizontal loads such as lateral earth pressure, wave force, wind force, and earthquakes.
[0003] There are two main types of test devices for underground structures or foundations. One is the model test device. The principle of this type of device is the similarity ratio theory. It is small and simple. It often uses a servo motor for loading. However, the load it applies is not in the same order of magnitude as the actual load. It cannot truly reflect the load response of the deep foundation under actual working conditions, and the test accuracy is not high. The other type is the full-scale test device. This type of device is often large in size, and the load is close to the actual working conditions. However, the existing devices of this type cannot simulate the real three-dimensional soil confining pressure at a depth of tens or even hundreds of meters underground. Some devices apply loads in a single direction, and cannot achieve cyclic loading or impact and vibration loading. The degree of automation is not high, and some devices cannot simulate deep foundation and structure tests under multi-field coupling. Summary of the invention

[0037] refer to Figures 1 to 4A structure and foundation prototype test device and method for multi-axial loading under full environment according to an embodiment of the present invention are described.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the structure and foundation prototype test device for multi-axial loading under full environment includes: a main frame 100, the main frame 100 has a receiving groove 110; a core tube 200, the core tube 200 is arranged in the receiving groove 110 in a liftable manner, the core tube 200 has a test groove 221, the test groove 221 is used to accommodate the test structure 10, the soil 20 and the water body to simulate the external force environment of the test structure 10, the core tube 200 includes a plurality of core units 210, the plurality of core units 210 are spliced to form a hollow cylinder, the plurality of core units 210 are connected in sequence along the axial direction, and the space between two adjacent core units 210 is 1 / 4 of the core unit 210. Active connection; a loading mechanism 300, which is arranged on the main frame 100, and is located on the peripheral side of the core tube 200, and is used to perform multi-axis loading on the core tube 200 and the test structure 10; a monitoring mechanism 400, a monitoring system connected to the test structure 10, and is used to monitor the displacement, deformation and stress change data of the test structure 10; a control system, a control system connected to the loading mechanism 300, and a control system connected to the monitoring mechanism 400, and is used to control the loading mechanism 300 and the monitoring mechanism 400, and to store, summarize and analyze the data obtained by the monitoring mechanism 400.
[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the main frame 100 is a rectangular frame structure, and its receiving groove 110 is a rectangular groove. The core barrel 200 is coaxially arranged in the receiving groove 110, and the core barrel 200 can move in the vertical direction in the receiving groove 110. A loading mechanism 300 is arranged on the peripheral side of the core barrel 200, and the loading mechanism 300 can perform multi-axis loading on the core barrel 200 in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. Specifically, the core barrel 200 includes a plurality of core units 210, and the plurality of core units 210 are all cylindrical, and the plurality of core units 210 are connected in sequence along the axial direction. In this specific embodiment, four core units 210 are provided, and the four core units 210 are connected in sequence in the vertical direction to form a cylindrical shape, wherein two upper and lower adjacent core units 210 are movably connected. Thus, the soil 20 is evenly filled into the test groove 221, the test structure 10 is placed inside the soil 20, and water is added into the test groove 221 to simulate the real confining pressure of the three-dimensional soil 20, and the loading mechanism 300 is adjusted and started. When the loading mechanism 300 loads the core tube 200, the two adjacent core units 210 are movably connected to form a test groove 221 that can be deformed freely, and the soil 20 is evenly filled into the test groove 221, and water is added into the test groove 221 to simulate the real confining pressure of the three-dimensional soil 20, and then the test structure 10 is placed inside the soil 20, and the loading mechanism 300 is adjusted and started. The loading degree is adjusted according to the construction environment. When the loading mechanism 300 performs multi-directional loading on the core tube 200, the two adjacent core units 210 are relatively displaced and are not disconnected from each other, forming a flexible connection to ensure the sealing between the two. This can simulate the stress response of various structures during construction and operation throughout their life cycle, and reproduce the stress environment of the foundation and structure under different working conditions such as changes in surrounding additional loads, excavation or backfilling of the stratum. This solves the problem that traditional test equipment cannot construct the real stress environment of pile foundations in deep earth, and realizes the real simulation of the stress-deformation characteristics of the soil 20 under lateral limit conditions, thereby improving the accuracy of research on the stress-deformation law of deep foundations under various working conditions.
[0040] Specifically, the monitoring mechanism 400 includes an infrared laser displacement sensor 410 for monitoring the displacement of the test structure 10, a stress sensor 430 for monitoring the stress change of the test structure 10, and a strain sensor 420 for monitoring the deformation data of the test structure 10. In this specific embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the infrared laser displacement sensor 410 is arranged on the main frame 100 , and the stress sensor 430 and the strain sensor 420 are arranged on the test structure 10 exposed from the soil 20 .
[0041] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the core unit 210 includes a plurality of unit plates 211, which are enclosed to form a hollow column, and two adjacent unit plates 211 are movably connected, and two upper and lower adjacent unit plates 211 are movably connected. Figure 2 As shown, in this specific embodiment, each core unit 210 is provided with four unit plates 211, and two adjacent unit plates 211 are movably connected, and the unit plates 211 of two upper and lower adjacent core units 210 are movably connected. Thus, the core tube 200 is composed of multiple layers and multiple unit plates 211, and the adjacent unit plates 211 are movably connected to form a cylindrical structure with freely deformable side walls. When the loading mechanism 300 performs multi-axial loading on the core tube 200, the freely deformable side walls can better simulate the stress-deformation characteristics of the soil 20 under the side limit conditions, making the load transfer path more realistic, so that the test results are closer to the actual engineering situation, which is helpful to study the stress-deformation law of the deep foundation in the actual soil 20.
[0042] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, two adjacent core units 210 are flexibly connected via a first folding connector 212 , and the first folding connector 212 is used to ensure that the two adjacent core units 210 remain sealed when relative displacement occurs.
[0043] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, two adjacent unit plates 211 are flexibly connected via a second folding connector 213 , and the second folding connector 213 is used to ensure that two adjacent core units 210 remain sealed when relative displacement occurs.
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, two vertically adjacent core units 210 are connected by a bellows, and two horizontally adjacent unit plates 211 are connected by a bellows connector. It should be noted that the wave shape of the bellows can make it have a certain flexibility, which can absorb the vibration and displacement of the soil 20. Therefore, when the loading mechanism 300 loads the core tube 200, the core tube 200 will deform under the action of the bellows and the bellows connector. On the one hand, it can better simulate the stress-deformation characteristics of the soil 20 under the side limit condition, and on the other hand, each unit plate 211 can remain connected to each other during the entire loading process.
[0045] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the core tube 200 further includes: a base 220, which is arranged on the main frame 100, and is located in the accommodating tank 110. A plurality of core units 210 and the base 220 enclose a test tank 221, and the test tank 221 is used to carry water, soil 20 and the test structure 10; a pressure plate 230, which is connected to the core unit 210, and corresponds to the inner wall of the core unit 210, and is used to uniformly transfer the load from the vertical direction to the soil 20 in the test tank 221. Figure 2As shown, four core units 210 are arranged axially on the base 220, and the outer diameter of the pressure plate 230 corresponds to the inner diameter of the core unit 210. When the soil 20 and the test structure 10 are arranged in the test trough 221, the pressure plate 230 is covered on the soil 20. When the loading mechanism 300 loads the soil 20 in the vertical direction, the pressure plate 230 can disperse the load and reduce the compressed area of the soil 20, thereby reducing the bearing pressure of the soil 20, preventing the soil 20 from locally bearing excessive pressure and causing the soil 20 to settle or deform excessively, thereby protecting the stability and safety of the soil 20 and the loading mechanism 300.
[0046] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the core tube 200 further includes a stabilizing member 240 , which is connected to the core unit 210 , and the stabilizing member 240 is connected to the base 220 , and the stabilizing member 240 is used to maintain the overall stability of all the core units 210 .
[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of stabilizing members 240 are circumferentially arranged on the side wall of the core unit 210 located at the lower end. In the present specific embodiment, four stabilizing members 240 are arranged, and the four stabilizing members 240 are respectively arranged on four unit plates 211. One end of the stabilizing member 240 is fixedly connected to the unit plate 211, and the other end is fixedly connected to the base 220, so that all the core units 210 can be stably arranged on the base 220 to further ensure the safety and stability of the test.
[0048] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, at least one unloading plate 214 is disposed on the outer wall of each core unit 210 . The unloading plate 214 is detachably disposed on the outer wall of the core unit 210 , and is used to unload the soil 20 in the test trough 221 .
[0049] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a soil unloading plate 214 is provided on the outer wall of each unit plate 211 in the core unit 210 located at the bottom.
[0050] like Figure 2As shown, each core unit 210 is provided with a soil unloading plate 214 on the outer wall, wherein the three core units 210 located at the upper part are provided with only one soil unloading plate 214, and the core unit 210 located at the bottom is provided with four soil unloading plates 214, and the four soil unloading plates 214 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the side wall of the bottom core unit 210. Specifically, in the core unit 210 located at the bottom, each unit plate 211 is provided with a soil unloading plate 214. It should be noted that the soil 20 at the bottom is usually more dense and compact than the soil 20 at the upper part. Therefore, more soil unloading plates 214 are provided at the bottom to ensure that the soil 20 can be discharged smoothly to avoid accumulation and resistance. Of course, through different research conditions, the distribution of the unit plates 211 can also be designed according to the actual conditions such as the density of the soil 20, so as to improve the efficiency of the test when unloading the soil 20 by reasonably arranging the unit plates 211 with soil unloading plates 214 and the unit plates 211 without soil unloading plates 214.
[0051] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the loading mechanism 300 includes: a plurality of horizontal loading assemblies 310, each of which is adjustably arranged on the main frame 100, and the plurality of horizontal loading assemblies 310 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the core tube 200, and the plurality of horizontal loading assemblies 310 are used to apply radial horizontal pressure to the core tube 200 and the test structure 10; a plurality of vertical loading assemblies 320, each of which is adjustably arranged on the main frame 100, and the vertical loading assemblies 320 are located above the core tube 200, and the vertical loading assemblies 320 are used to apply axial pressure to the soil 20 and the test structure 10.
[0052] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the horizontal loading assembly 310 includes: a plurality of first horizontal loading members 311, which are adjustably arranged on the main frame 100, and are evenly distributed in the vertical direction. The first horizontal loading members 311 are used to horizontally load the test structure 10; a plurality of second horizontal loading members 312, which are adjustably arranged on the main frame 100, and are evenly distributed in the vertical direction. The number of second horizontal loading members 312 is the same as the number of core units 210, and each unit plate 211 is correspondingly provided with a second horizontal loading member 312, and the second horizontal loading member 312 is used to horizontally load the corresponding unit plate 211.
[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the horizontal loading assembly 310 includes a first horizontal loading member 311 and a second horizontal loading member 312 arranged on the main frame 100, and a first slide rail 3111 and a second slide rail 3121 vertically arranged on the main frame 100, wherein the first horizontal loading member 311 is used to horizontally load the side wall of the test structure 10, and the second horizontal loading member 312 is used to horizontally load the side wall of the core tube 200. Specifically, the first horizontal loading member 311 is a first hydraulic jack 3112 slidably arranged on the first slide rail 3111. In this specific embodiment, four horizontal loading assemblies 310 are provided, and four first slide rails 3111 are provided on the main frame 100, and the four first slide rails 3111 are respectively located at the upper ends of the four side walls of the main frame 100, and each first slide rail 3111 is provided with a first hydraulic jack 3112, so as to evenly load the test structure 10 horizontally from four directions. The second horizontal loading member 312 is a second hydraulic jack 3122 slidably disposed on a second slide rail 3121, and the second slide rail 3121 is disposed on the wall of the accommodating groove 110. The number of the second slide rails 3121 on the wall of the accommodating groove 110 corresponds to the number of the first slide rails 3111, and a second slide rail 3121 is correspondingly disposed at the lower end of each first slide rail 3111 along the length direction. A plurality of second hydraulic jacks 3122 are arranged on each second slide rail 3121. In the present specific embodiment, in order to more realistically simulate the stress-deformation characteristics of the soil 20 under the lateral limit conditions, each unit plate 211 is correspondingly provided with a second hydraulic jack 3122. That is, on the same second slide rail 3121, the number of second hydraulic jacks 3122 corresponds to the number of unit plates 211 in the vertical direction, so as to ensure that during the loading process, each unit plate 211 can be loaded by the second hydraulic jack 3122 in the horizontal direction, so that the load transfer path is more realistic, thereby making the test results closer to the actual engineering conditions.
[0054] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the vertical loading assembly 320 includes: a second vertical loading member 321, which is adjustably disposed on the main frame 100, and is used to perform axial loading on the test structure; and a plurality of first vertical loading members 322, which are adjustably disposed on the main frame 100, and are circumferentially disposed on the circumferential side of the test structure loading member, and are used to perform axial loading on the soil 20.
[0055] like Figure 3As shown, the vertical loading assembly 320 includes a first vertical loading member 321, a second vertical loading member 322 and a moving member 323 arranged on the main frame 100, wherein the first vertical loading member 321 is used to load the test structure 10 in the vertical direction, and the second vertical loading member 322 loads the dense soil 20 in the test trough 221 in the vertical direction through the pressure plate 230. The moving member 323 includes a reaction frame column 3231 and a reaction frame beam 3232, the first vertical loading member 321 includes a third hydraulic jack 3211 arranged on the reaction frame beam 3232, and the second vertical loading member 321 includes a fourth hydraulic jack 3221 arranged on the reaction frame beam 3232. Specifically, there are four reaction columns 3231, which are respectively arranged at the top of the four side walls of the main frame 100, and each reaction column 3231 corresponds to a first slide rail 3111, that is, each reaction column 3231 is located on the same straight line as a first slide rail 3111 and a second slide rail 3121. Specifically, the first slide rail 3111 is coaxially penetrated in the corresponding reaction column 3231. There are two reaction beams 3232, which are arranged at the upper end of the reaction column 3231. The two oppositely arranged reaction columns 3231 are connected by the reaction beams 3232, and the reaction beams 3232 are arranged on the corresponding reaction columns 3231 in a liftable manner. Figure 3 As shown, the two reaction beams 3232 are perpendicular to each other and overlap. Specifically, the reaction beams 3232 and the reaction columns 3231 are connected by a motor screw. A third hydraulic jack 3211 is arranged at the bottom of the reaction beam 3232 at the lower end. The third hydraulic jack 3211 is arranged coaxially with the core tube 200. When the test structure 10 is placed in the test tank 221 filled with soil 20, the test structure 10 needs to be placed on the axis of the core tube 200 so that the third hydraulic jack 3211 can correspond coaxially with the test structure 10, so that the third hydraulic jack 3211 can accurately load the test structure 10 in the vertical direction. The fourth hydraulic jacks 3221 are evenly arranged around the third hydraulic jack 3211. In this specific embodiment, there are four fourth hydraulic jacks 3221, wherein two fourth hydraulic jacks 3221 located in the front and rear directions of the third hydraulic jack 3211 are located on the same reaction beam 3232, and two fourth hydraulic jacks 3221 located in the left and right directions of the third hydraulic jack 3211 are located on the same reaction beam 3232. It should be noted that, as Figure 3 As shown, in order to achieve free lifting, the core tube 200 is connected to the main frame 100 through a screw structure, wherein each reaction column 3231 is provided with two screw structures, and the two screw structures are respectively located on both sides of the reaction column 3231.
[0056] Furthermore, the pressure plate 230 is composed of four identical pressure plates, which are separated from each other, and each pressure plate corresponds to a fourth hydraulic jack 3221. When the fourth hydraulic jack 3221 is pressed down, each fourth hydraulic jack 3221 can load the soil 20 independently, and two adjacent fourth hydraulic jacks 3221 do not interfere with each other.
[0057] Therefore, a slide rail system and a servo hydraulic loading system capable of applying large loads are adopted to make the loading position flexible and adjustable, and to be able to carry out simulation tests of large loads and deep foundations, and to achieve high automation of the test by cooperating with a PLC control system and an electronic data acquisition system. Specifically, the test tank 221 carries soil 20 and water, and the core tube 200 can move vertically as a whole. Loading structures are set in the transverse and vertical directions of the core tube 200 and inside and outside the test structure 10 to simulate horizontal and vertical cyclic loads, and to achieve multi-axis loading under multi-field coupling, which can not only simulate the stress conditions of the pile foundation in the ocean, but also simulate the whole process construction of the riprap base bed of the gravity riprap wharf, and also simulate the influence of additional loads, backfilling and excavation on the foundation and structure during construction.
