Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pressure testing for testing the strength characteristics of solid materials using mechanical stress, specifically to a sliding vertical loading device for a centrifuge vibration table shear box and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] The development and utilization of deep underground space is an inevitable path for the future development of megacities. The design of deeply buried underground structures faces technical challenges, including complex and variable geological environments, high safety requirements throughout their service life, and difficulties in post-disaster repair. By conducting centrifuge shaking table model tests on complex foundation-structure systems, the mechanical response of deeply buried underground structures under seismic loading can be determined, the stress-deformation state of the actual prototype structure can be reconstructed, and the damage location distribution and development patterns of underground structures in high-stress soil layers under different seismic intensities can be revealed. However, due to limitations such as the maximum acceleration of conventional centrifuge equipment, the ultimate load of the shaking table, and the size of the model box, current geotechnical centrifuge shaking table tests cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of high ground stress and the aforementioned test limits.
[0003] The purpose of the geotechnical centrifuge shaking table test is to replicate the stress and deformation state of the real prototype structure by scaling down the structural model and increasing the centrifugal field acceleration, and to explore its physical laws. However, due to limitations in centrifugal field acceleration, shaking table ultimate load, and model box size, it is impossible to replicate the high ground stress conditions of deeply buried structures. Other devices are needed to make the stress state of the structure and soil as close as possible to the actual deep-buried conditions.
[0004] Limited by factors such as the centrifuge's maximum centrifugal acceleration, scale ratio, and model box size, the maximum burial depth of underground structures that a conventional centrifuge shaking table can simulate without additional equipment is a fixed value. Furthermore, because the shaking table has a load limit, if the weight of the model box and its contents exceeds this limit, the shaking table will malfunction. Therefore, the shaking table's load capacity is limited. These two main reasons result in a very limited range of underground structure burial depths that current centrifuge shaking table devices can simulate. Therefore, without changing the technical parameters of the centrifuge and shaking table themselves, or the shear box size, the vertical force of the overlying soil layer can be simulated by applying a load to the soil surface. This allows the overlying pressure on the structure to reach the required burial depth, meeting the needs of deep underground structure model testing.
[0005] Currently, the most similar implementation is a flexible airbag loading system, which can be used in 1g shaking table tests. The airbag is designed with two layers: an inner bladder made of TPU flexible composite material without a mesh, and an outer sheath made of TPU flexible material with a mesh. The inner bladder and outer sheath are welded together as a whole, ensuring the airtightness and strength of the airbag. A rigid top plate is placed on top of the airbag, enabling servo simulation of high ground stress in the tunnel. However, the requirements for the airbag are very high under the high-speed rotating centrifugal field, and the airbag can easily restrict the displacement of the soil and shear box, affecting the test results.

[0047] In step S1.5, the controller is selected from a single-chip microcomputer, a programmable controller, or a microcomputer.
[0048] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0049] 1. Conventional centrifuge shaking table test setups are difficult to simulate soil-deep underground structure systems, and modifying the technical parameters of the centrifuge and shaking table and the size of the shear box is quite expensive. This invention can simulate the dynamic test conditions of deep underground structures under limited test conditions, which greatly saves test costs.

The upper and lower loading plates can slide against each other through needle roller bearings. The upper loading plate and the model box always remain relatively stationary. While achieving loading, it does not restrict the horizontal displacement of the model soil and shear box, thus ensuring the validity of the test results. This device is suitable for shaking table tests. Attached Figure Description

[0078] S1.2 Assemble the main loading device:
[0079] The loading motor 32 is fixed on the support 31 through the housing. The loading motor 32 is a stepper motor. A telescopic rod 33 is provided on each side of the loading motor 32. The output shaft of the loading motor 32 is connected to the two telescopic rods 33 through the transmission mechanism 34.
[0080] The loading base plate 35 is slidably fitted onto the lower part of the two telescopic rods 33, and the connecting plate 36 is fixed to the bottom end of the two telescopic rods 33.
[0081] The top end of the loading rod 37 is fixed to the middle of the bottom surface of the connecting plate 36;
[0082] This is used to assemble the main loading device 3 and connect the main loading device 3 to the pressure sensor 51. Note that the loading plate part inside the pressure sensor 51 must not contact the main loading device part, otherwise the applied load value cannot be measured.
[0083] S1.3 Mounting base: Adjust the telescopic length of the telescopic rod 33 so that the space above the soil 13 inside the box 11 can accommodate the loading base plate 35, connecting plate 36, loading rod 37 and loading panel 4;

[0085] The base 2 includes two base rods 21. The two ends of the base rods 21 are provided with ear plates 211 and positioning holes 212. The middle part of the base rods 21 is provided with a sliding groove 213. Each base rod 21 is sleeved on a box post 12 through the positioning holes 212 at both ends. Each box post 12 is screwed with a nut 14, thereby sleeved and fixed the base 2 on the box post 12.
[0086] S1.4 Fixing the main loading device: Fix both sides of the support 33 to the groove 213 of a base rod 21 by bolt-nut assembly 38, thereby fixing the support 31 to the base 2, so that the bottom end of the telescopic rod 33, the loading base plate 35, the connecting plate 36, the loading rod 37 and the loading panel 4 pass through the support 3 and the base 2 in sequence and are placed in the space above the soil 13 inside the box 11;

[0088] S2. Loading Experiment:
[0089] S2.1 Setting parameters: Turn on the controller 52 and set the acquisition parameters, including loading rate, loading direction and pressure set value. After tare balancing, start the pressure sensor 51 to prepare for data acquisition.
[0090] S2.2 Vertical Pressurization: The controller 52 sends a loading command to the loading motor 32. The output shaft of the loading motor 32 drives the loading panel 4 to press against the soil 13 according to the collected parameters through the transmission mechanism 34, telescopic rod 33, loading base plate 35, connecting plate 36 and loading rod 37, so as to apply vertical pressure to the soil 13. The controller 52 observes the pressure value collected by the pressure sensor 51. When the pressure value reaches the pressure set value, the controller 52 sends a stop command to the loading motor 32 to complete the vertical pressurization.
[0091] S2.3 Vibration test: Once the pressure value collected by the pressure sensor 51 is stable, the vibration test will be carried out.
[0092] Currently, conventional shaking tables can use the centrifuge's built-in robotic arm to apply vertical pressure to the soil surface of the model box. However, due to the limited number of application points of the robotic arm, when seismic waves or sine waves are input to the bottom of the shaking table, the robotic arm will generate torque, which may damage the robotic arm. Conventional shaking tables can also use airbag loading, but under the high-speed rotating centrifugal field of the experiment, the airtightness and quality requirements of the airbag are very high. On the other hand, because the airbag can easily affect the deformation of the soil and shear box, it may further lead to the distortion of the test results.
[0093] Compared with conventional vibration table equipment, this embodiment has the following characteristics:
[0094] i. This embodiment can achieve the overburden pressure requirements of deeply buried underground structures in a simpler, more economical and practical way without replacing with a higher-performance centrifuge or customizing a new model box, and while meeting the centrifuge load requirements.
[0095] ii. This embodiment designs a split loading panel 4, which consists of two parts: the upper panel 41 is a loading panel with constraint measures, and the lower panel 42 is a loading panel with rolling elements 43 (such as needle rollers or ball rollers) on its surface. The purpose is to apply force while allowing the upper and lower panels to move relative to each other without restricting the displacement of the soil 13. At the same time, in order to limit the lower panel 42 from moving too much during vibration and touching the side wall of the box 11, an L-shaped constraint is formed around the upper panel 41 through slots to control the range of movement of the lower panel 42 during vibration, so that the lower panel 42 will not exceed the maximum displacement of the vibration table, ensuring that the test results are not affected and that the system is safe and reliable.
[0096] iii. This embodiment is mostly composed of steel components, which are easy to fix. Compared with flexible devices that use airbags for pressurization or complex multi-joint systems of robotic arms for pressurization, this embodiment is more suitable for applications in high-speed centrifugal fields, and has high safety and durability, and is not easily damaged.
