The invention relates to the technical field of geotechnical
mechanics and geophysical exploration, and discloses a three-dimensional electrical resistance
tomography method for geotechnical materials and a
data acquisition device. The method aims to solve the technical problems that in the prior art, a general linear interpolation method is prone to generating a block mosaic effect and is extremely unfavorable for
image analysis, and a
nonlinear interpolation method is poor in accuracy, possibly causes calculation difficulty and cannot achieve real-time
rapid imaging. The method comprises the following steps: (1) collecting
electrode data; (2) screening and summarizing data; (3) carrying out hierarchical plane inversion imaging; and (4) depth three-dimensional interpolation. The spatial
electrode arrangement mode is optimized, a numerical inversion imaging
system capable of being used for
engineering scale measurement is formed, real-time, rapid and accurate monitoring of
geotechnical engineering projects is achieved, the detection speed is high, the imaging efficiency is high, the calculated amount is relatively small, the requirement for non-intrusive
engineering monitoring is met, and
engineering condition damage cannot be caused.
