In order to understand the mechanical properties of coarse-grained soil, it is necessary to use a shear tester to conduct shear tests on it and obtain the corresponding mechanical indicators. The significance of the study of dry-wet cyclic shear of coarse sand particles is to gain a deep understanding of the mechanical properties and behavioral characteristics of coarse sand particles under dry-wet alternating conditions. This kind of research helps to evaluate the performance of coarse sand particles in actual engineering, predict and respond to potential geological disaster risks, and provide important basis and reference for soil engineering design and research in related fields. By revealing the microscopic mechanism of coarse sand particles in the shear process, the stability and safety of soil engineering can be optimized, and the development and progress of related fields can be promoted.
[0003] However, there are many drawbacks in the current methods and means of conducting dry-wet cyclic shear tests on coarse-grained soil. The existing method is to soak the prepared coarse-grained soil in a container until it reaches a saturated state; then take it out and put it into a shear device for direct shear test; take it out after direct shearing, wait for it to dry, and then put it into the shear device for shearing, and repeat the saturation and drying to test the dry-wet cyclic shear mechanical properties of the coarse-grained soil. The sample is repeatedly taken out of the shear box, which is cumbersome to operate, and the soaking and drying are time-consuming, resulting in low experimental efficiency. Utility Model Content
