The effect of microfabric on the mechanical behaviour of clays has been explored previously based on the response of dispersed and flocculated microfabrics only. However, the natural clays often have the geometric arrangement of particles between these two extreme cases which can be termed as intermediate microfabric. This paper explores the formation of intermediate microfabric of kaolin clay and its impact on soil’s consolidation behaviour by performing self-weight consolidation, slurry consolidation and 1-D consolidation tests. The effect of calgon content (dispersing agent) on geometric arrangement of the particles has been evaluated through cluster size distribution by performing double hydrometer tests. Then these clay slurries have been used to perform the AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) test to obtain the variation in average angle of particle orientation with respect to the calgon content present in the slurry. AFM technique provides 3D image of the clay sample and 2D image with Z-information with the potential of measuring intermediate microfabric of clayey soil quantitatively including dispersed and flocculated microfabrics. Other traditional techniques such as SEM, TEM & XRD are limited to only qualitative analysis of soil’s microfabric, thus, having no capability to measure intermediate microfabric of clay. A methodology of preparing bulk specimens of clay with intermediate microfabric has been developed using slurry consolidation technique; and then these specimens have been consolidated under 1-D loading to evaluate the effect of intermediate microfabric on compressibility and permeability of clay. In this study, all the experiments reports that the dispersed type geometric arrangement increases with the increase in calgon content in soil up to 2 % and then the reverse behaviour is observed at 3 %; which may depend on the required amount of sodium cations to neutralize the negatively charged faces of the clay platelets present in the slurry. 相似文献

Pliocene and Holocene siltstones and silts in outcrops from the Boso Peninsula, Japan and in cores from the East China were studied to determine distinctive characteristics of the turbiditic (Bouma E-Division) and hemipelagic siltstones and silts. Weathering characteristics, colour, grain size, and organic carbon-organic nitrogen ratio, plus clay fabric proved valuable in characterizing each unit. Clay and non-clay mineral content was uniform throughout. Clay fabric differences are pronounced. Random clay flake orientation prevails in the turbiditic interval while the hemipelagic unit has more preferred orientation. The fabric reflects different conditions of sedimentation. The turbiditic clay was deposited more rapidly in the flocculated state while the interturbidite hemipelagic clay may have formed from more slowly sedimented dominantly dispersed clay. Results suggest that clay fabric may be useful in combination with other sedimentary features in the study of mud-turbidite sedimentation. 相似文献

沉积形成的条纹和条带状构造多包含化学沉积和机械沉积2个沉积过程,在探讨其沉积机制时往往受到制约。而桌子山地区中、上奥陶统克里摩里组和乌拉力克组发育良好的条纹条带状泥岩,为单一的机械沉积作用所致,是研究条纹条带构造形成过程中沉积流体作用机制的理想层位。本次研究以详细的野外观察为基础,结合室内岩石薄片鉴定和近年来关于细粒沉积水槽实验的研究成果,探讨深水等深流在形成条纹条带构造中的作用。克里摩里组上段多为条纹状泥岩组成,呈极细的连续或断续透镜状,垂向上表现为细—粗—细序列;乌拉力克组多为条带状泥岩,与砾屑石灰岩伴生,垂向上发育窄—宽—窄序列。其成因则与等深流引起的黏土絮凝波和底载荷运动相关。在弱等深流作用期,絮凝波发育并存在长的尾迹,在等深流改造底载荷进行再沉积的同时,黏土絮凝波发生垂直降落沉积,形成条纹状泥岩;在强等深流作用期,絮凝波不发育,底载荷连续加积形成条带状泥岩。克里摩里组条纹状泥岩与乌拉力克组条带状泥岩的差别可能与水深相关,前者水体较深,后者水体较浅。研究结果说明鄂尔多斯盆地西缘中、晚奥陶世的最大海侵发生在克里摩里组上段,这对研究该地区的构造性海侵和大地构造环境具有重要意义。 相似文献

ABSTRACT Within the clear definition of a quick clay as being a soil which has a sensitivity greater than 30 and a remoulded strength less than 0.5 kPa, a general model for quick clay development is presented, based on the influences of various material properties and natural processes on the sensitivity and remoulded strength. The influences are separated according to depositional requirements and post-depositional factors and according to whether the influence is to increase the undisturbed strength or to decrease the remoulded strength. Depositional factors are the requirements for a flocculated structure and the dominance of low activity minerals. Post-depositional factors are cementation and slow load increase, which increase the undisturbed strength, and little consolidation, leaching and dispersants, which decrease the remoulded strength. The application of the model to marine, brackish water and freshwater sediments is discussed. 相似文献

The swelling of clay when it is subjected to moisture increase is a complicated process found to be influenced by several factors. The clay??s level of response is highly dependent on its mineralogical composition and structure. Practicing geotechnical engineers use the placement state and general index properties to forecast the swelling behavior of the soils. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of placement conditions on various clays and to demonstrate that the swelling of a particular clay type should not be predicted using information and trends obtained for other clays with different origins. Clay from Saudi Arabia was used to investigate the influence of initial moisture content and initial dry density on swelling. The prediction models created by other researchers were compared to the measured values in this study. The swelling behavior of both initially dry and wet prepared bentonite was examined, and the rate at which swelling developed in the bentonite clay was studied. The role of clay content in the volume change of sand?Cbentonite mixtures was also investigated. It was concluded that the prediction of clay-swelling parameters should not be based on the properties of other clays with different origins and mineralogical compositions. The trends published in the literature should be taken as a general guide only, and the influence of moisture content and dry density on swelling should be verified for individual sites. Because clay content significantly influences the overall volume change, it should be carefully assessed in each case. 相似文献

The oxidation state of Fe in soils is one of the few properties that can be altered in situ and is known to have a large effect on chemical and physical properties. Understanding this phenomenon enables the possible manipulation or management of the soil in such a way as to maximize the benefit of such changes in properties. The effects of redox cycles, however, are less understood because most studies have focused only on a single reduction event. The purpose of this report is to review the current state of knowledge of the effects of redox cycles on clay and soil behavior, with the hope that this background will encourage further investigations of these processes. Evidence clearly indicates that the means by which reduction of Fe in clay minerals occurs significantly influences the potential reversibility of the process. 相似文献

有机质中的纤维素和腐殖质会影响软土的力学性质,有机质含量越高,软土的力学特性就会越差。为研究高有机质软土的固结特性,通过对不同深度高有机质软土的渗透性、固结以及微、细观结构特征进行试验,并利用分解程度试验结果,分析高有机质软土的特殊渗透、固结和结构特征的形成机制。研究结果表明,不同埋深的高有机质软土渗透系数差别较大,且渗透固结速度较快,基本处于粉砂到粉质黏土数量级;0.5～1.8 m埋深的土层垂直渗透系数小于水平渗透系数,其余深度垂直渗透系数均大于水平渗透系数;分解程度的研究表明,分解程度直接影响高有机质软土的压缩固结特性,低分解程度的土层更容易发生塑性变形。由埋藏从浅到深,结构由絮凝结构逐渐向叠片结构转化,最后转变为集块结构。结合土体的分解程度分析,得出高有机质软土的分解程度高低直接影响高有机质软土的渗透、固结以及结构特性。 相似文献

粘土矿物是影响砂岩储集性能的重要因素。结合实例讨论了粘土矿物成因、绝对含量、成分、产状及晶体形态等与砂岩储集性能的关系。研究表明,粘土矿物对砂岩储集性能的影响程度与砂岩本身的成熟度有关。当砂岩成熟度高时,随粘土矿物绝对含量的增加,其储集性能降低,尤其是渗透率降低;但高成熟度砂岩随高岭石和充填状粘土矿物含量增高,物性相对变好。当砂岩的结构和成分成熟度比较低时,粘土矿物对其储集物性影响较小,而主要与岩石本身的成分和结构有关。研究还表明,不同形态的伊利石对砂岩的物性影响也不同,片状伊利石有利于改善储层物性,而纤维状和发丝状伊利石增多会使砂岩储集物性降低或变为非储层。 相似文献

One of the main usages of ball clays is in the pottery industry. However, in order to transport the clay suspensions from the mine site, some distance away from the consumer, dewatering of the clay suspension must be performed. The main restriction is that any dewatering treatment must not interfere in obtaining deflocculated, free flowing suspensions required by the pottery manufacturer.Investigations in the flocculation/deflocculation of these clay suspensions, resulted in finding a technique capable of achieving both requirements. The technique employs flocculation by an anionic flocculant in the presence of 10 mM of magnesium sulfate, thus achieving the dewatering step. When the magnesium sulfate was removed from the flocculated suspensions by simply washing the filter cake, good deflocculation of the clay suspension was achieved at alkaline pH. The role of MgSO4 in the flocculant adsorption/flocculation, and subsequently in the flocculant desorption/deflocculation, was discussed. 相似文献

Hybrid event beds comprising clay‐poor and clay‐rich sandstone are abundant in Maastrichtian‐aged sandstones of the Springar Formation in the north‐west Vøring Basin, Norwegian Sea. This study focuses on an interval, informally referred to as the Lower Sandstone, which has been penetrated in five wells that are distributed along a 140 km downstream transect. Systematic variations in bed style within this stratigraphic interval are used to infer variation in flow behaviour in relatively proximal and distal settings, although individual beds were not correlated. The Lower Sandstone shows an overall reduction in total thickness, bed amalgamation, sand to mud ratio and grain size in distal wells. Turbidites dominated by clay‐poor sandstone are at their most common in relatively proximal wells, whereas hybrid event beds are at their most common in distal wells. Hybrid event beds typically comprise a basal clay‐poor sandstone (non‐stratified or stratified) overlain by banded sandstone, with clay‐rich non‐stratified sandstone at the bed top. The dominant type of clay‐poor sandstone at the base of these beds varies spatially; non‐stratified sandstone is thickest and most common proximally, whereas stratified sandstone becomes dominant in distal wells. Stratified and banded sandstone record progressive deposition of the hybrid event bed. Thus, the facies succession within hybrid event beds records the longitudinal heterogeneity of flow behaviour within the depositional boundary layer; this layer changed from non‐cohesive at the front, through a region of transitional behaviour (fluctuating non‐cohesive and cohesive flow), to cohesive behaviour at the rear. Spatial variation in the dominant type of clay‐poor sandstone at the bed base suggests that the front of the flow remained non‐cohesive, and evolved from high‐concentration and turbulence‐suppressed to increasingly turbulent flow; this is thought to occur in response to deposition and declining sediment fallout. This research may be applicable to other hybrid event bed prone systems, and emphasizes the dynamic nature of hybrid flows. 相似文献

The present paper deals with the impact of shear deformation on the geometric arrangement of particles within the soil specimen,
which is termed as the microfabric of soil. A series of compression and extension lubricated end triaxial tests are performed
on cylindrical specimens of Kaolinite clay with two extreme microfabrics; dispersed and flocculated, which are obtained using
slurry consolidation technique. Flocculated microfabric has random orientation of particles within the soil mass having face-to-edge
particle contacts; however, dispersed microfabric has parallel orientation of particles containing face-to-face particle contacts.
When the specimen is subjected to large stress levels during its shear deformation, the particle orientation and the geometric
arrangement within the soil specimen gets affected due to the force acting on the clay platelets. The variation in microfabric
of soil before and after shear deformation process is evaluated by obtaining X-ray diffraction patterns of the clay specimen
at three different locations using standard X-ray diffractometer. The discussion includes an analysis of the orientation of
soil particles located at shear banding zones of the clay specimens, which may be useful for understanding the strain localization
development in clays. 相似文献

The present paper evaluates the role of microfabric in strain localization patterns observed in soil specimens during its shear deformation in compression and extension triaxial testing. A series of compression and extension lubricated end triaxial tests are performed on Kaolin clay with extreme as well as intermediate microfabrics, which are obtained using slurry consolidation technique by varying calagon content from 0 to 3 %. Intermediate microfabric is the geometric arrangement of particles within the soil mass, which lies in between the particle orientation during two extreme microfabrics; flocculated and dispersed. Flocculated has random orientation of particles with face-to-edge particle contacts and dispersed has parallel orientation of particles with face-to-face particle contacts. When the specimen is subjected to large stress levels in triaxial testing, the particle orientation and geometric arrangement get affected due to the force acting on the clay platelets. In this experimental research, the variation in clay’s stress–strain and pore pressure response and initiation, propagation and formation of shear bands at different levels of compression and extension shearing is evaluated using digital image analysis setup associated with triaxial system. 相似文献

The environmental behaviour of colloidal clay in aquatic systems is linked to the properties of their aggregates. Earlier investigations of clay colloids were performed with electron microscope techniques which caused de-hydration of the particles. Information on the structure of colloid aggregates is needed for understanding their sedimentation behaviour, as well as colloid contaminant transport properties in natural systems. Scanning transmission X-ray microspectroscopy successfully produced images of montmorillonite colloid aggregates in a pseudo-equilibrium state in 1 mM NaCl suspensions equilibrated for more than a year. These clay aggregates were revealed at photon energies below the O absorption edges of clay and water. They were spherical or ellipsoidal with diameters of the order of 100–800 nm. The aggregates are porous and gel like with lower densities than the clay mineral. These investigations are important for modelling the occurrence of clay aggregates in aqueous environments. 相似文献

In late Pleistocene time Lake Dieri (ancestral ‘Greater Lake Eyre') was permanently filled during a wet climatic phase. Towards the close of Pleistocene time the watertable fell, Lake Dieri dried up, and its sediments deflated. Later the watertable rose, establishing ephemeral Lake Eyre in the deflated area, and Holocene sedimentation commenced. At about this time Lake Eyre tilted to the south and three sedimentary environments developed: (1) a saline playa environment without saltcrusts in the northern end of the lake, where water drains away before wholly evaporating; (2) a terminal salina environment in the south end, where evaporation of brines leaves saltcrusts overlying gypseous sediments; and (3) a saline flocculation environment between the playa and salina environments, where sediments are deposited by flocculation when muddy floodwater from the north meets highly saline water of the southern salina. In the northern playa environment, sedimentation is limited to the top of the capillary fringe above the watertable, below which sediments remain moist and protected from aeolian erosion, but above which they dry and blow out of the lake. In the southern salina environment sedimentation has not kept pace with the Holocene rise in watertable. If and when it does reach such a level, downward leaching of salt and deflation of exposed sediments is likely to occur. In the flocculation environment new deposits of clay are added but kept permanently wet by rising groundwater. When flocculated sediment builds too high, its excess is transferrred by surface water into the salina deposits to the south. 相似文献

This paper discusses the results of investigations of deformational and strength ground properties determined from specific features of macrotextures of groups of Lower Cretaceous grounds: homogeneous sands and homogeneous clay grounds, horizontally alternating clay and sandy grounds, and rocks showing complex textures (of the “ryabets” (spotted) type and others). The presented indices of physical and mechanical rock properties reflect the specific features of their composition, structure, and state of the discriminated types of Lower Cretaceous grounds. 相似文献
