SUCTION-CONTROLLABLE TRIAXIAL TEST SYSTEM FOR STUDYING THE MICRO-HYDROMECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF UNSATURATED SOILS WITH IN-SITU X-RAY MICRO COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCANNING
The subject invention pertains to a suction-controllable triaxial test system and a method for studying the micro-hydro-mechanical behavior of unsaturated soils through the visualization of the in-situ evolution of three-dimensional (3D) microstructure upon triaxial loading in a ((p-u.sub.a), q, s) space. The triaxial apparatus can be small enough to be operated within a micro-focus or nano-focus X-ray CT scanner. Internal characteristics and 3D movements of soil particles and the water and air in soil pores can be visualized during in-situ controllable hydro-mechanical loading processes without disturbing the soil sample. The evolution of 3D micro-structure of unsaturated soil samples of varying matric suction can be directly related with their element-scale behavior for conducting cross-scale fundamental studies.
