Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of grain storage, and in particular to a layered adjustable grain shearing test device and a test method based on a vibration table. Background Art

[0002] As a typical bulk material, grain has a seismic response that is significantly different from that of a rigid body or continuous medium. Under the action of an earthquake, the grain particles inside the grain pile will slide, separate, and redistribute, resulting in the effective mass being much lower than the total mass. The current seismic code GB50011-2010 "Code for Seismic Design of Buildings" usually uses the empirical coefficient method to simplify the effective mass of grain to 80% of the total mass, but this assumption lacks sufficient experimental basis, especially ignoring the following key factors: Stratification effect: There are significant differences in the movement of particles at different depths in the grain pile. The upper layer of grain is prone to sliding, while the lower layer is more constrained by the side walls; Nonlinear response: The effects of seismic wave frequency, amplitude, and the physical state of grain, such as humidity and density, on the effective mass have not yet been quantified; Traditional research methods mainly estimate effective mass indirectly through overall vibration table tests or numerical simulations. Such research methods have many shortcomings, such as: coarse data granularity: only the overall base shear force of the granary can be obtained, and the contribution ratio of each layer of grain cannot be analyzed; over-simplification of the model: in numerical simulations, grain is often assumed to be a continuous medium, and the discreteness of particles is ignored; environmental interference: small changes in grain humidity and stacking density may significantly affect the results, but existing experiments lack dynamic control of these variables; Therefore, developing a grain shear box that can verify the reliability of an effective mass coefficient of 80% under granary seismic loads through layered dynamic response monitoring has become a key issue that needs to be urgently addressed in the study of the seismic mechanism of bulk materials. Summary of the invention

[0010] Preferably, the lower box body, the sliding layer, and the upper box body are all made of polymethyl methacrylate with high light transmittance.

[0011] A layered adjustable grain shear test method based on a shaking table includes the following steps: a. Assemble the lower box body, the sliding layer, and the upper box body, and fix the lower box body to the shaking table through high-strength bolts; b. Use a grain pump to fill the lower box body, the sliding layer, and the upper box body with grains according to preset working conditions (grain type, humidity, density), fill the grains to the target height and record; c.

Through the above structure, a shear test of grains under vibration conditions is simulated; The purpose of verifying whether the 80% empirical value in the Seismic Design Code for Buildings GB 50011-2010 is accurate is achieved through the test method.

The bolt connection enables stepped height adjustment and weights can be placed on the top layer, simulating different grain - filling masses while reducing the usage amount of grains; Further, two baffles are symmetrically provided at the upper opening of the frame of the sliding layer 2, and the composite layer two 2.2 is arranged on the baffles to provide support for the composite layer two 2.2; In addition, the lower - layer box body 1, the sliding layer 2, and the upper - layer box body 3 are all made of polymethyl methacrylate with a high light transmittance, and the light transmittance ≥ 92%.
