Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to an experimental system for determining the range of the shear expansion zone of dense fine-grained soil and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As the main ship in the dredging industry, the trailing suction dredger plays an important role in various waterway dredging, port construction, and land reclamation projects. However, the bottom of the main ports and port access channels located on the long coastline is complex and changeable, and densely compacted silt and fine sand are often encountered. This type of soil has the characteristics of high density, low compressibility, high strength, and high bearing capacity. It is as hard as "iron plate", so it is commonly known as "iron plate sand". The average particle size range is between 0.02~0.5mm, and the average natural density is between 1.8~1.95g / m 3 The relative density exceeds 2 / 3. In addition to the internal friction angle with an average value greater than 30°, the strength parameter also has an average cohesion of 5~15kPa, which corresponds to its material composition between sand and clay. Therefore, it exhibits the characteristics of high strength and large bearing capacity, and the standard penetration number is generally greater than 30N.
[0003] It is precisely because of the above characteristics of this type of soil that the efficiency of dredging this type of soil by a trailing suction hopper dredger is extremely low and the progress is slow. For example, the "iron plate sand" existing in Huanghua Port in Hebei Province and the Yangtze River Estuary is generally dredged by a trailing suction hopper dredger at a very low concentration, often less than 1.10t / m 3 .
[0004] In response to the above situation, the relevant construction units and design departments proposed the idea of high-pressure water flushing, that is, to open a hole in the middle of the rake teeth, and then use 4~6 bar water flow to assist in breaking the soil, but the effect was minimal.
[0005] Through research, it was found that the reason why "iron plate sand" is difficult to excavate is mainly due to the obvious shear dilatancy of this type of soil. During the rake tooth cutting process, a certain range of shear dilatancy zone is formed on the rake tooth surface. The pore water pressure in the shear dilatancy zone is negative, which leads to an increase in the effective stress of the soil, thereby significantly improving the shear strength of the soil, and then greatly increasing the cutting resistance of the rake teeth. The main reason why high-pressure water flushing is used to assist in the excavation of "iron plate sand" but has little effect is that due to the failure to recognize the existence of the shear dilatancy zone, although flushing holes are set for flushing, water is not injected into the shear dilatancy zone, or water is not injected into the area with the strongest shear dilatancy, so the shear strength of the soil cannot be reduced, and the resistance reduction effect is very limited. Summary of the invention

The length of the inner cavity of the preparation pool is not less than 40m. The supply device includes a water delivery pipe, a supply valve and a water tank for still water. The water tank contains still water. The water tank is connected to the preparation pool through a water delivery pipe at the bottom to input the still water into the preparation pool. The water delivery pipe is connected in series with a supply valve to control the start and stop of the delivery of the still water and the water volume. The vibrating compaction device is used to further compact the soil after the soil is sucked and compacted by the vacuum pump, so that the voids inside the soil are reduced and the density of the soil is increased; The leveling device is fixed on the truss of the trolley, and when the trolley moves, it drives the leveling device to level the soil surface.
[0009] The experimental system for determining the range of the shear expansion zone of dense fine-grained soil is characterized by: In the cutting subsystem: The cutter teeth are fixed on the tooth seat, and the force sensor is fixed on the tooth seat through a flange joint. When the cutter teeth cut the soil, the force sensor synchronously measures the cutting resistance; The cutting connection device comprises a cutting connection device, a cutting connection plate, a cutting connection frame and a cutting connection arm, one end of the cutting connection plate is connected to the force sensor through a bolt-nut assembly, the other end of the cutting connection plate is connected to one end of the cutting connection frame through a bolt-nut assembly, the other end of the cutting connection frame is rotatably arranged on one end of the cutting connection arm through a hinge, and the other end of the cutting connection arm is rotatably arranged on the trolley through a hinge; The cylinder body of the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder is fixed on the cutting connection arm, and the movable end of the piston rod of the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the cutting connection frame through a hinge, and the cutting connection frame is driven to rotate by the extension and contraction of the piston rod of the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder to adjust the cutting angle of the cutter teeth; The cylinder body of the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder is fixed at the bottom of the trolley. The movable end of the piston rod of the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the cutting connecting arm through a hinge. The piston rod of the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder drives the cutter teeth to move up and down to adjust the height of the cutter teeth, thereby adjusting the thickness of the soil cut by the cutter teeth. The traction system includes a wire rope, a power system, a traction controller and a frame. The frame is fixed on one side of the preparation tank. The power system and the traction controller are both arranged on the frame. The traction controller is respectively connected to the power system, the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder and the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder through signal lines. The traction controller is also connected to the control device through signal lines. The wire rope is led out from the power system and tied to both sides of the trolley. The traction controller adjusts the direction and speed of the traction trolley by controlling the power system under the command of the control device.
[0010] The experimental system for determining the range of the shear expansion zone of dense fine-grained soil is characterized by: The power system uses a winch or electric hoist, and the traction controller uses a programmable controller, single-chip microcomputer or microcomputer; The water pressure sensor uses a micro pressure sensor; The control device uses a microcomputer; The control device controls the power system, the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder and the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder through the traction controller according to the set parameters, so as to control the cutter teeth to reciprocate according to the set parameters to cut the soil. The data acquisition instrument collects the cutting resistance value measured by the force sensor and the pore water pressure value measured by the water pressure sensor in real time according to the set parameters and transmits them to the controller. The controller stores the received cutting resistance value and the pore water pressure value. The controller can also transmit the cutting resistance value and the pore water pressure value to other electronic devices through the network. After the cutting meets the set requirements, the control device controls the power system, the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder and the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder to stop running and return to the initial position through the traction controller. The control device then processes the received cutting resistance value and the pore water pressure value.
[0011] The method for using the experimental system for determining the range of the shear expansion zone of dense fine-grained soil is characterized by being implemented in the following steps: S1. Soil preparation: Soil is placed in the preparation pool. The air in the soil is sucked by the vacuum pump and first input into the air-water separation tank through the separation air pipe. The moisture in the air is collected at the bottom of the air-water separation tank and accumulated into water. The air separated from the moisture is discharged by the vacuum pump through the suction air pipe. The water tank is connected to the preparation pool through the water pipe at the bottom to input air-free water into the preparation pool. S2. Setting: In the maintenance mode, the control device controls the power system through the traction controller to perform zero-position correction on the trolley and the wire rope respectively. The control device sets the cutting speed of the cutter teeth, the acquisition frequency of the force sensor and the acquisition frequency of the water pressure sensor through the parameter setting module, powers on the inverter of the power system to put the inverter in a ready state, and ensures that the braking and tensioning hydraulics of the traction system work normally. S3. Cutting: The cutting control module of the control device controls the power system, the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder and the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder respectively through the traction controller. The piston rod of the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder is extended and retracted to drive the cutting connection frame to rotate, thereby adjusting the cutting angle of the cutter teeth. The piston rod of the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder is extended and retracted to drive the cutter teeth to move up and down to adjust the height of the cutter teeth, thereby adjusting the thickness of the soil cut by the cutter teeth. The trolley moves along the track under the traction of the traction system, thereby driving the cutter teeth to linearly cut the soil at the set cutting speed. S4. Measurement: When the cutter teeth cut the soil, the force sensor synchronously measures the cutting resistance according to the set acquisition frequency, and the water pressure sensor synchronously measures the pore water pressure at various locations on the interface between the cutter teeth and the soil during the soil cutting process according to the set acquisition frequency; S5. Collection: The collection control module of the control device receives and stores the cutting resistance value measured by the force sensor and the pore water pressure value measured by the water pressure sensor through the data acquisition device; S6. Analysis: The data processing module of the control device determines the range of the dilatancy zone according to the received cutting resistance value and pore water pressure value. The specific steps are as follows: First, the positions where the measured pore water pressure is positive are marked with "+" and the negative values are marked with "-". Then, for the areas adjacent to the positive and negative values, difference processing is performed to obtain the positions where the pore water pressure is 0. The positions where the pore water pressure is 0 are then plotted as data points on the tooth surface plane of the cutter tooth. Finally, the points where the pore water pressure is 0 are connected into a line, which is the boundary between the dilatancy zone and the non-dilatancy zone. The area with negative pore water pressure is the final determined dilatancy zone range. S7. Reset: Stop the trolley to stop the cutting of the soil by the blade teeth, and then make the trolley retreat to the initial zero position at the set speed.
[0012] The method for using the experimental system for determining the range of the shear expansion zone of dense fine-grained soil is characterized by: In step S1, the soil to be put into the preparation pool is dug from the excavation construction site, and impurities (such as stones, garbage, branches, etc.) are removed to ensure the uniformity of the soil. The various indicators of the soil put into the preparation pool should be basically consistent with the soil at the excavation construction site; In step S3, the moving speed of the cutter teeth when cutting the soil is not more than 3m / s and the fluctuation range of the moving speed is not more than 5%. When cutting, the first 5m is an acceleration section where the speed increases from zero to the moving speed, and the last 5m is a deceleration section where the speed drops from the moving speed to zero. The section between the acceleration section and the deceleration section is a cutting section of the moving speed, and the length of the cutting section is not less than 30m. In step S5, the collection control module of the control device receives and stores the cutting resistance value measured by the force sensor and the pore water pressure value measured by the water pressure sensor at a frequency of once every 1 mm of movement of the cutter teeth.
[0013] In order to eliminate the dilatancy effect of soil, thereby reducing the shear strength of soil and further reducing the cutting resistance of rake teeth, it is necessary to develop a relevant experimental system to truly reproduce the actual process of rake teeth cutting soil at the construction site. A series of model experiments are carried out through the experimental system to determine the distribution of negative pore water pressure along the tooth surface, and the distribution range of the dilatancy zone along the tooth surface of the rake teeth during soil cutting is determined by the experimental results.
[0014] During the cutting process of dense fine-grained soil under undrained conditions, negative pore water pressure is generated due to the shear expansion of the soil. Therefore, the pore water pressure data automatically stored by the data acquisition instrument are sorted out, and the shear expansion zone range is determined by the area corresponding to the negative pore water pressure measured by each pore water pressure sensor buried on the tooth surface of the cutter.
[0015] Aiming at the common difficulties in the current "iron plate sand" dredging construction, the present invention first proposes a soil preparation subsystem for preparing soil parameters equivalent to those of the on-site soil, so as to restore the on-site construction soil, and various main indicators can reach the indicator range of "iron plate sand"; a cutting subsystem is proposed, which can reproduce the actual situation of rake teeth cutting soil, including cutting speed, cutting angle and cutting thickness, which can be completely consistent with the on-site; a measuring subsystem is proposed, which can measure the pore water pressure value generated in the process of rake teeth cutting soil, and store it in real time, providing a data source for the subsequent determination of shear expansion zone; in addition, a control subsystem is proposed to realize the automatic control of the rake teeth cutting soil process, and its accuracy can be guaranteed.
[0016] The present invention can truly reproduce the actual process of rake teeth cutting soil at a construction site, and conduct a series of model experiments through an experimental system to determine the distribution of negative pore water pressure along the tooth surface. The distribution range of the shear expansion zone along the tooth surface of the rake teeth during soil cutting is determined by the experimental results, further providing a basis for actively replenishing water to the shear expansion zone to reduce the shear expansion effect and thus reduce the cutting resistance of the cutter teeth.
[0017] The present invention is suitable for dense silt and fine sand with a relative density greater than 2 / 3 and a standard penetration number greater than 30N, that is, soil commonly known as "iron plate sand", which will show shear expansion when the soil needs to be cut by rake teeth. After determining the range of the shear expansion zone, one or two high-pressure flushing holes are set near the maximum negative pore water pressure area, and the flushing pressure reaches more than 10 bar. By actively replenishing water to the shear expansion zone, the pore water pressure in the shear expansion zone changes from negative to positive, thereby effectively reducing the effective stress of the soil, and then reducing the cutting resistance of the rake teeth.
[0018] The invention is applicable to dredging engineering and is used to determine the range of the shear expansion zone formed on the surface of the cutter teeth during the dredging of dense fine-grained soil, and provides a basis for actively replenishing water to the shear expansion zone to reduce the shear expansion effect and thus reduce the cutting resistance of the cutter teeth.
[0019] The present invention can simulate different soil types at a construction site and can simulate the actual situation of a prototype cutter tooth cutting a soil body, and can also perform real-time measurement of pore water pressure and real-time collection of experimental data.
[0020] The invention has the following beneficial effects: close to engineering practice, high integration, remote automatic control, real-time display and automatic storage of data. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] When this embodiment is used, it is implemented according to the following steps: S1. Soil preparation: The soil 5 is placed in the preparation pool 13, and the air in the soil 5 in the preparation pool 13 is sucked by the vacuum pump 111, and firstly input into the air-water separation tank 122 through the separation air pipe 124, and the moisture in the air is collected at the lower part of the air-water separation tank 122 to accumulate into the water body 123, and the air separated from the moisture is discharged by the vacuum pump 111 through the suction air pipe 112, and the water tank 143 is connected to the preparation pool 13 through the water pipe 141 at the bottom to input the air-free water 144 into the preparation pool 13; The soil 5 put into the preparation pool 13 is dug from the excavation construction site, and impurities (such as stones, garbage, branches, etc.) are removed to ensure the uniformity of the soil 5. The various indicators of the soil 5 put into the preparation pool 13 should be basically consistent with the soil at the excavation construction site; S2. Setting: In the maintenance mode of the trolley 27, the control device 43 controls the power system 292 through the traction controller 293 to perform zero correction on the trolley 27 and the wire rope 291 respectively. The control device 43 sets the cutting speed of the cutter teeth 22, the acquisition frequency of the force sensor 23 and the acquisition frequency of the water pressure sensor 33 in the parameter setting module, powers on the inverter of the power system 292 to put the inverter in a ready state, and ensures that the braking and tensioning hydraulics of the traction system 29 work normally; S3. Cutting: The cutting control module of the control device 43 controls the power system 292, the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder 25 and the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder 26 respectively through the traction controller 293, and drives the cutting connection frame 242 to rotate by the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the angle adjustment hydraulic cylinder 25, thereby adjusting the cutting angle of the cutter teeth 21, and drives the cutter teeth 21 to move up and down by the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the height adjustment hydraulic cylinder 26 to adjust the height of the cutter teeth 21, thereby adjusting the thickness of the soil body 5 cut by the cutter teeth 21, and the trolley 27 moves along the track 28 under the traction of the traction system 29, thereby driving the cutter teeth 21 to linearly cut the soil body 5 at the set cutting speed; The moving speed of the cutter teeth 21 when cutting the soil 5 is not more than 3m / s and the fluctuation range of the moving speed is not more than 5%. When cutting, the first 5m is an acceleration section where the speed increases from zero to the moving speed, and the last 5m is a deceleration section where the speed drops from the moving speed to zero. The section between the acceleration section and the deceleration section is a cutting section of the moving speed, and the length of the cutting section is not less than 30m. S4 measurement: the blade 21 cutting soil 5 force sensor 23 synchronously measures the cutting resistance according to the set acquisition frequency, the water pressure sensor 33 synchronously measures the pore water pressure at each interface of the blade 21 and the soil 5 during the cutting process according to the set acquisition frequency; S5.

Analysis: The data processing module of the control device 43 determines the range of the dilatancy zone according to the received cutting resistance value and pore water pressure value, and the specific steps are as follows: First, using drawing software, the positions where the measured pore water pressure is positive are marked with "+" and the negative values are marked with "-". Next, for the areas adjacent to the positive and negative values, difference processing is performed to obtain the positions where the pore water pressure is 0. The positions where the pore water pressure is 0 are then plotted as data points on the plane diagram of the tooth surface 211 of the cutter tooth 21. Finally, the points where the pore water pressure is 0 are connected into a line, which is the boundary line between the dilatancy zone and the non-dilatancy zone. The area where the pore water pressure value is negative is the final determined dilatancy zone range. S7. Reset: Stop the trolley 27 to stop the cutting of the soil 5 by the cutter teeth 21, and then retreat the trolley 27 to the initial zero position at a set speed.
[0037] In the above steps, S2 to S7 are as follows: Fig.13 shown.
[0038] The specific method and process of the above difference processing are as follows: Using this embodiment, for fine sand with a standard penetration hammer number N of 32, under the conditions of cutting angle α=45°, cutting speed v=0.5m / s, and cutting thickness h=0.1m, the pore pressure values collected on the surface of the cutter teeth 21 are shown in Table 1, and the range of the shear expansion zone is determined as follows Fig.14 As shown, Fig.14 The SD in the middle is the shear expansion zone.
[0039] Table 1 shows that the measured pore water pressure values are basically symmetrical along the central axis of the cutter tooth 21, and the pore pressure value gradually changes from negative to positive from the tooth tip of the cutter tooth 21 to the tooth seat 22. It can be known from the relevant theories of soil mechanics that saturated dense fine-grained soil will undergo shear expansion when subjected to shear (cutting), which is macroscopically manifested as a negative pore water pressure value. According to the effective stress principle, the generation of negative pore pressure will increase the effective stress, making the soil more difficult to shear (cut) and dig. Compared with other positions, the negative pore water pressure values at the central axis and tooth tip are the largest, indicating that the shear expansion of the soil here is the strongest.
[0040] Fig.14 It shows that the shear expansion zone does not exist on the tooth surface 211 of the entire tooth 21, but is mainly distributed in the lower half of the tooth 21 and near the center axis of the tooth 21. The shear expansion zone is in a pointed cone shape and is basically symmetrical left and right along the center axis of the tooth 21.
