Undrained cavity expansion-contraction analysis in CASM and its application for pressuremeter tests
Many geotechnical scenarios involve cavity unloading from a loaded state, particularly in pressuremeter tests, and the unloading data of pressuremeter tests has exceptional attraction as it is less disturbed by the insertion process. However, the analyses for continuous cavity loading and unloading (i.e., cavity initially experiences expansion and then contracts) in critical state soils are rarely studied. To this end, a novel semi-analytical solution based on the unified state parameter model for clay and sand (CASM) is proposed for the whole expansion-contraction of spherical and cylindrical cavities under undrained condition. The problem assumes that the cavity is unloaded after a monotonic loading stage, leading to plastic regions during both loading and unloading periods. The cavity response for the whole expansion-contraction process is investigated, with the total pressure and stress paths at the cavity wall presented and validated against numerical simulation. The developed solution is successfully implemented to interpret both loading and unloading data of pressuremeter tests. The undrained shear strength, in-situ effective horizontal stress and initial overconsolidation ratio are back analyzed by using a curve fitting method based on the proposed solution.
期刊介绍:
The Canadian Geotechnical Journal features articles, notes, reviews, and discussions related to new developments in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering, and applied sciences. The topics of papers written by researchers and engineers/scientists active in industry include soil and rock mechanics, material properties and fundamental behaviour, site characterization, foundations, excavations, tunnels, dams and embankments, slopes, landslides, geological and rock engineering, ground improvement, hydrogeology and contaminant hydrogeology, geochemistry, waste management, geosynthetics, offshore engineering, ice, frozen ground and northern engineering, risk and reliability applications, and physical and numerical modelling.
Contributions that have practical relevance are preferred, including case records. Purely theoretical contributions are not generally published unless they are on a topic of special interest (like unsaturated soil mechanics or cold regions geotechnics) or they have direct practical value.
