Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of soil moisture content testing, and in particular to a single-column soil moisture content testing method. Background Art
[0002] Soil moisture is closely related to geological disasters. High moisture content will reduce the shear strength of the soil and increase the weight of the soil, thereby increasing the risk of landslides and mudslides. At the same time, changes in soil moisture content may also lead to ground subsidence and soil collapse, especially in soft soil areas and geological structures with cavities. Therefore, accurate monitoring of soil moisture is of great significance for the early warning and prevention of geological disasters.
[0003] At present, most of the existing technologies assess the risk of geological disasters by directly measuring the moisture content of the soil. For example, the invention patent with the announcement number CN111537567B discloses a tube-needle soil moisture detection method, which includes a detector body and a detection rod, the lower end of the detector body is connected to the detection rod, the upper surface of the detector body is provided with a control panel, the lower end of the detection rod is designed in a sharp form, the outer wall of the lower end of the detection rod is embedded with a high-frequency electrode sheet distributed in a ring shape, the surface of the high-frequency electrode sheet is kept in contact with the outer wall of the lower end of the detection rod, the outer wall of the lower end of the detection rod is embedded with a detection port, the detection port is embedded with a protective net and a permeable membrane, the lower end of the detection rod is provided with symmetrically distributed high-frequency electrode contacts, and the detector body includes a power module, a high-frequency voltage generator, a voltage measuring device and a microprocessor. The invention ionizes the water in the soil through the high-frequency electrode sheet, and measures the moisture content quickly and effectively by detecting the conductivity between the high-frequency electrode contacts. However, the moisture content information of the soil cannot be accurately reflected directly through the conductivity, so it is impossible to accurately warn of geological disasters. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a single-column soil moisture content testing method, which solves the problem that the existing soil moisture content detection method cannot accurately prevent geological disasters.
[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A single-column soil moisture content testing method is provided, comprising the steps of: S1. Install the soil test column in the monitoring soil layer; wherein the soil test column is provided with Each soil electrode is electrically connected to four measurement interfaces in the measurement circuit through four multi-way switches. is a natural number greater than or equal to 4; S2. Place the soil in the test column The soil electrodes are sorted and numbered respectively, and grouped into groups of 4 adjacent soil electrodes. Soil electrodes are divided into A set of measuring electrodes; S3. The measurement data of all the measurement electrodes in the monitored soil layer at different characteristic frequencies are obtained through the measurement circuit. The measurement data include and ;in, For the The measuring electrodes are The measured impedance modulus obtained at the characteristic frequency is For the The measuring electrodes are The measured phase obtained at the characteristic frequency; S4, calculating the correlation coefficient between the measured data and the calibration data; The calibration data includes and , For the Calibrated soil moisture distribution in soil layer The measuring electrodes are The calibrated impedance modulus obtained by the characteristic frequency; For the Calibrated soil moisture distribution in the soil layer The measuring electrodes are The calibration phase obtained at the characteristic frequency; the correlation coefficient includes , and , For the The soil moisture content of the calibrated soil is distributed in the soil layer and Impedance modulus correlation coefficient between ; For the The soil moisture content of the calibrated soil is distributed in the soil layer and The phase correlation coefficient between For the The comprehensive correlation coefficient between the calibrated soil moisture distribution layer and the measured data is calculated by and Calculate and obtain; S5. Get The maximum value in , will be The corresponding calibrated soil moisture distribution soil layer is used as the actual soil moisture distribution soil layer of the monitoring soil layer; S6. Based on the actual soil moisture content, soil layer distribution and geological structure of the monitored soil layer, the geological disaster warning level of the monitored soil layer is given by expert evaluation.
[0006] In this scheme, multiple groups of measuring electrodes in the soil test column are used to obtain the measurement data of the monitoring soil layer including the measurement impedance mode and the measurement phase, and the impedance mode correlation coefficient and phase correlation coefficient between the measurement and calibration data are calculated and the comprehensive correlation coefficient is obtained. The calibration soil moisture distribution layer closest to the monitoring soil layer is determined by combining the impedance mode and phase. The calibration soil moisture distribution layer is the benchmark value set for the calibration experiment. Considering the complex and changeable conditions of the actual monitoring soil layer, the calibration experiment soil layer has stronger robustness. Even when the environmental conditions change, the strategy can be quickly adjusted by comparing the calibration data to ensure the continuity and stability of the monitoring work, so as to facilitate experts to assess the accurate geological disaster warning level. Among them, the impedance mode refers to the absolute value of the complex impedance, which represents the overall resistance encountered when the current passes through the medium. When the moisture in the soil increases, the impedance mode decreases due to the high dielectric constant of water; the phase refers to the phase difference between the voltage and the current, reflecting the capacitive and inductive components of the medium. The change in water content not only changes the resistivity of the soil, but also affects its capacitance characteristics, thereby changing the phase. As the moisture content increases, the capacitance effect of the soil increases, resulting in an increase in the phase. The combination of impedance mode and phase can better reflect the moisture content of the soil than the single conductivity.
[0007] Furthermore, each soil test column includes a cylindrical shell, the bottom of the shell is a conical structure, a top cover is arranged on the top of the shell, a filling layer is arranged inside the shell, an electrode sandwich is arranged between the inner wall of the shell and the outer wall of the filling layer, and a Soil electrodes, One end of each soil electrode passes through multiple measuring holes on the shell to contact the soil. The other end of each soil electrode is electrically connected to the measurement circuit located on the filling layer through the electrode connection line. The soil test column is easy to install and maintain, ensuring the stability and repeatability of the measurement results.
[0008] Furthermore, a plurality of guide grooves are provided on the inner wall of the housing in the height direction, and a flange is provided on the outer wall of the filling layer to slide with the plurality of guide grooves. The design of the guide grooves and the flange enables the filling layer to slide up and down in the housing without rotating, thereby ensuring the consistency of the position of the soil electrode, improving the measurement accuracy, helping to reduce the error caused by the movement of the device, and enhancing the reliability of the test results.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of fixing holes for the lock buckles to pass through are provided on the outer wall of the conical structure at the bottom of the shell, and a plurality of guide holes are vertically provided inside the filling layer. The bottoms of the plurality of guide holes are bent and connected to the plurality of fixing holes respectively, and the tips of the plurality of lock buckles enter the plurality of guide holes respectively and drill out from the plurality of fixing holes into the soil. The design of the fixing holes on the outer wall of the conical structure and the internal guide holes and lock buckles enables the entire device to be firmly embedded in the soil and remain stable even under soft or slippery surface conditions. For long-term monitoring, the lock buckle can prevent data deviation caused by equipment displacement.
[0010] Furthermore, the multiple measuring holes on the housing are evenly divided into multiple layers along the height direction, and the multiple measuring holes on each layer are distributed in a circular pattern. The measuring holes are evenly layered and distributed in a circular pattern along the height direction, which ensures the consistency of the soil contact area of each electrode, thereby improving the comparability between the soil moisture content measurement values at different depths. Such a layout also facilitates the effective contact between the electrode and the soil, further improving the measurement accuracy.
[0011] Furthermore, a fixing plate for fixing the measuring circuit with bolts is arranged on the top of the filling layer, and a connecting wire through-hole for passing a plurality of electrode connecting wires is opened in the middle of the fixing plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the measurement circuit includes four measurement interfaces, which are respectively a first measurement interface, a second measurement interface, a third measurement interface, and a fourth measurement interface electrically connected to four multi-way switches; the first measurement interface is electrically connected to a resistor, a sine signal generator, and a fourth measurement interface in sequence, and a resistor voltage amplifier electrically connected to a resistor voltage analog-to-digital converter is connected in parallel to the resistor, and the resistor voltage analog-to-digital converter is electrically connected to a microprocessor; the sine signal generator is electrically connected to the microprocessor; the second measurement interface and the third measurement interface are both electrically connected to a soil voltage amplifier, and the soil voltage amplifier is electrically connected to the microprocessor through a soil voltage analog-to-digital converter; the microprocessor is connected to a remote monitoring terminal signal through a communication interface. The measurement circuit can simultaneously obtain the resistor voltage and soil voltage information, providing a basis for calculating the impedance module. The use of the microprocessor and the remote monitoring terminal realizes the automatic processing and real-time transmission of data, greatly improving work efficiency.
[0013] Further, and The calculation method comprises the steps of: S3.1, set the frequency of the sine signal generator to the first The sampling frequencies of the soil voltage analog-to-digital converter and the resistance voltage analog-to-digital converter are set to The characteristic frequency times;; S3.2, respectively obtain The output data of the soil voltage analog-to-digital converter and the resistance voltage analog-to-digital converter are connected to the 100-pole measuring electrode. and , and calculate 100 and The absolute deviation value of and Deviation value of S3.3 Calculation and ;

[0016] In this scheme, by setting the output frequency of the sine signal generator and the sampling frequency of the analog-to-digital converter, the impedance modulus is calculated based on the absolute deviation value of a large number of sample points, thereby increasing the amount of data collection, reducing the impact of random errors, and improving the accuracy of impedance modulus calculation. This scheme uses the negative zero-crossing point number to determine the phase. By analyzing a large number of sample points, a more accurate phase can be obtained, and different types of soil media can be easily distinguished.
[0017] Furthermore, the characteristic frequency includes impedance mode characteristic frequencies and phase characteristic frequencies corresponding to a plurality of calibrated soil moisture distribution soil layers, and the method for obtaining the impedance mode characteristic frequency and phase characteristic frequency in each calibrated soil moisture distribution soil layer is: The soil test column is installed in the soil layer corresponding to the soil moisture distribution, and the impedance mode mean square error and phase mean square error of all combinations of measuring electrodes at different frequencies are obtained. The frequency corresponding to the maximum value of all impedance mode mean square errors is taken as the impedance mode characteristic frequency of the corresponding soil moisture distribution layer, and the frequency corresponding to the maximum value of all phase mean square errors is taken as the impedance mode characteristic frequency of the corresponding soil moisture distribution layer.
[0018] In this scheme, by measuring the impedance mode mean square error and phase mean square error of all combinations of measuring electrodes at different frequencies and selecting the frequency corresponding to the maximum mean square error as the characteristic frequency, the optimal operating frequency that reflects the change in soil moisture content can be determined more accurately. This helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of subsequent soil moisture monitoring. At the same time, by determining the optimal impedance mode characteristic frequency and phase characteristic frequency, it can help adjust the frequency of the sinusoidal signal generator in the measurement circuit, so that the equipment can operate within the most sensitive frequency range, thereby obtaining more accurate data. Based on this, changes in soil moisture content can be discovered earlier and more accurately, which is particularly important for early warning of geological disasters.

[0027] This scheme uses two parameters, impedance mode and phase, for comprehensive analysis, which can not only capture the changes in soil resistivity, but also reflect the influence of soil capacitance characteristics, which helps to monitor soil moisture content and its changing trends more comprehensively and reliably.
[0028] The invention discloses a single-column soil moisture content testing method, which has the following beneficial effects: The present invention utilizes multiple groups of measuring electrodes in a soil test column to obtain measurement data including measurement impedance mode and measurement phase in the monitored soil layer, and calculates the impedance mode correlation coefficient and phase correlation coefficient between the measured and calibrated data to obtain a comprehensive correlation coefficient. By combining the impedance mode and phase, the calibrated soil moisture distribution layer closest to the monitored soil layer is simultaneously judged. The calibrated experimental soil layer has stronger robustness. Even when environmental conditions change, the strategy can be quickly adjusted by comparing the calibration data, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the monitoring work, and facilitating experts to assess an accurate geological disaster warning level.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are described below so that those skilled in the art can understand the present invention. However, it should be clear that the present invention is not limited to the scope of the specific implementation modes. For those of ordinary skill in the art, as long as various changes are within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined and determined by the attached claims, these changes are obvious, and all inventions and creations utilizing the concept of the present invention are protected.
[0031] refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a single-column soil moisture testing method, the purpose of which is to solve the problem that the existing soil moisture detection method cannot prevent geological disasters. It is demonstrated in detail below.
[0032] A single-column soil moisture content testing method comprises the following steps: S1. Install the soil test column in the monitoring soil layer. Figure 1 and Fig. 9 , where each soil test column is equipped with The soil electrodes 22 are electrically connected to the four measurement interfaces in the measurement circuit 104 through four multi-way switches 103, is a natural number greater than or equal to 4.
[0033] S2. Place the soil in the test column The soil electrodes 22 are sorted and numbered, and four adjacent soil electrodes 22 are grouped into a group. Soil electrodes 22 divided into Set of measuring electrodes.
[0034] S3, the measurement data of all the measurement electrodes in the monitored soil layer at different characteristic frequencies are obtained through the measurement circuit 104, and the measurement data include and ;in, For the The measuring electrodes are The measured impedance modulus obtained at the characteristic frequency is For the The measuring electrodes are The measured phase is obtained at a characteristic frequency.
[0035] S4. Calculate the correlation coefficient between the measured data and the calibration data.
[0036] The calibration data includes and , For the Calibrated soil moisture distribution in soil layer The measuring electrodes are The calibrated impedance modulus obtained by the characteristic frequency; For the Calibrated soil moisture distribution in soil layer The measuring electrodes are The calibration phase obtained at the characteristic frequency; the correlation coefficient includes , and , For the The soil moisture content of the calibrated soil is distributed in the soil layer and Impedance modulus correlation coefficient between ; For the The soil moisture content of the calibrated soil is distributed in the soil layer and The phase correlation coefficient between For the The comprehensive correlation coefficient between the calibrated soil moisture distribution layer and the measured data is calculated by and Obtained by calculation.
[0037] S5. Get The maximum value in , will be The corresponding calibrated soil moisture distribution layer is used as the actual soil moisture distribution layer of the monitoring soil layer.
[0038] S6. Based on the actual soil moisture content, soil layer distribution and geological structure of the monitored soil layer, the geological disaster warning level of the monitored soil layer is given by expert evaluation.
[0039] As a further solution of this embodiment, it is possible to judge in sequence The impedance modulus difference and phase difference of the group are greater than the corresponding thresholds set for the soil moisture content distribution layer. If the impedance modulus difference and phase difference of the group of measuring electrodes are greater than the corresponding thresholds set, the monitoring soil layer is located Soil electrode No. 22 and There is an abnormality in the soil moisture content between soil electrodes 22. is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to An integer; otherwise the monitored soil layer is normal.
[0040] This embodiment If any of the impedance modulus difference and phase difference of the group of measuring electrodes is greater than the corresponding threshold value set, it means that the soil moisture content in the monitored soil layer is abnormal, and there is a possibility of geological disasters. The inventors consider that, ideally, the simultaneous changes of impedance modulus and phase should be considered. If both show a clear deviation trend, it is more likely to indicate that the soil moisture content has indeed changed. However, in practical applications, sometimes only one parameter may show a significant change. For example, if a large amount of free water suddenly appears in the soil, the first thing to be affected may be the impedance modulus because it is more sensitive to changes in resistivity; while changes in phase will be delayed or become less obvious under certain conditions. Vice versa, for some specific types of soil or materials, the phase may respond more sensitively to changes in moisture content than the impedance modulus.
