[0066] wherein after each test is completed, the residual loess on the non-invasive probe is removed with a dry cotton cloth.

[0067] After each test is completed, the same mass of loess is taken at the non-invasive probe test site, and finally loess with a total weight of about 10-15 kg is obtained for indoor calibration.

[0068] S2. Calculate the dry density and mass water content of the undisturbed loess at the site arrangement point in combination with the dielectric constant, electrical conductivity and indoor calibration parameters a1, b1, c1, and d1 of the undisturbed loess at the arrangement point;

Among them, the 10.0 m˜14.0 m is the ancient soil layer and contains more calcareous concretions, and the leveling effect is poor, so no test was carried out. During the implementation process, testers conduct test applications according to the specific implementation mode of the present invention.

[0091] S1. Use a crane to enter the exploration well at a depth of 1.0 m, and level the test points on the left and right sides of the well wall; then, after making the non-invasive probe closely fit the leveled test points for 5 to 10 seconds, use a micro The computer-driven time-domain reflection signal transmitter is tested through a non-invasive probe, and then the time-domain reflection waveform diagram of the test point is obtained. It should be noted that after each test, use a dry cotton cloth to remove residual loess from the test end of the non-intrusive probe. Further, after completing the test at the same depth, the staff descended with the crane and performed the same test at intervals of 1.0 m until the depth of the exploratory well was 20.0 m. Among them, the exploration wells with a depth of 10.0 m-14.0 m are ancient soil layers and contain many calcareous concretions, and the test was not carried out due to the poor leveling effect of the test surface. Therefore, a total of 32 non-destructive time-domain reflection waveform tests were carried out along the depth of 0 m-20.0 m in the exploratory well, and finally the dielectric constant and electrical conductivity of 32 groups of undisturbed loess were calculated. In addition, after each test, undisturbed loess blocks and detrital loess with a size of about 150 mm×150 mm×150 mm were collected at the non-invasive probe test site.

The collapsibility evaluation index K.sub.L of undisturbed loess at different layout points is calculated according to formula (6) in combination with loess dry density, mass water content and basic physical property indicators (such as: plasticity index I.sub.p and specific gravity G.sub.s). Then, according to the K.sub.L value, it corresponds to strong collapsibility (K.sub.L≥1.90), moderate collapsibility (1.26≤K.sub.L≤1.90), slight collapsibility (0.85≤K.sub.L<1.26) and no collapsibility (K.sub.L<0.85). The collapsibility of the undisturbed loess at the arrangement point is evaluated. It is worth noting that in this case, in order to illustrate the feasibility of the present invention more clearly, the indoor compression results were compared with the prediction results of the loess collapsibility evaluation mathematical model, as shown in FIG. 3.

Then, after the non-invasive probe is closely attached to the leveled test point for 5-10 seconds, a microcomputer-driven time-domain reflection signal transmitter is used for testing through the non-invasive probe, and then the time-domain reflection waveform of the test point is obtained. picture. It should be noted that after each test, the residual loess on the non-intrusive probe should be removed with a dry cotton cloth. Furthermore, 16 tests were carried out for each measuring line, and finally a total of 32 sets of time-domain reflection waveforms were obtained in the selected area, and then the dielectric constant and conductivity of 32 sets of undisturbed loess were calculated. In addition, after each test, undisturbed loess blocks and detrital loess with a size of about 150 mm×150 mm×150 mm were collected at the non-invasive probe test site, and finally 32 undisturbed loess blocks with a total weight of about 10˜15 kg of detrital loess. Among them, the undisturbed loess block is used for indoor drying method to verify the accuracy of non-destructive time-domain reflectometry for testing loess dry density and mass water content, and for indoor compression tests to verify the applicability of the mathematical model for evaluating loess collapsibility.

Further, the mass water content and dry density of the undisturbed loess at the site arrangement points are calculated by using the permittivity, electrical conductivity and indoor calibration parameters a.sub.1, b.sub.1, c.sub.1, and d.sub.1 of the undisturbed loess at the site arrangement points. Among them, using formulas (3) and (5) to calculate the mass water content of the undisturbed loess at the site layout point, the values of β and λ, are 0.841 and 0.046, respectively. Subsequently, the dry density of undisturbed loess at site layout points was calculated by using the mass water content of undisturbed loess and formula (4). It is worth noting that in this case, in order to illustrate the feasibility of the present invention more clearly, the results of dry density and mass water content of loess obtained by indoor drying method and non-destructive time domain reflectometry were compared, as shown in FIG. 4.

[0097] S3. The collapsibility evaluation index KL of undisturbed loess at different layout points is calculated according to formula (6) in combination with loess dry density, mass water content and basic physical property indicators (such as: plasticity index Ip and specific gravity G.sub.s). Then, according to the K.sub.L value, it corresponds to strong collapsibility (K.sub.L≥1.90), moderate collapsibility (1.26≤K.sub.L<1.90), slight collapsibility (0.85≤K.sub.L<1.26) and no collapsibility (K.sub.L<0.85). The collapsibility of the undisturbed loess at the arrangement point is evaluated. It is worth noting that in this case, in order to illustrate the feasibility of the present invention more clearly, the indoor compression results were compared with the prediction results of the loess collapsibility evaluation mathematical model, as shown in FIG. 5.

Furthermore, the present application may take the form of a computer program product embodied on one or more computer-usable storage media (including but not limited to disk storage, CD-ROM, optical storage, etc.) having computer-usable program code embodied therein.

[0105] The present application is described with reference to flowcharts and/or block diagrams of methods, apparatus (systems), and computer program products according to embodiments of the present application. It should be understood that each procedure and/or block in the flowchart and/or block diagram, and combinations of procedures and/or blocks in the flowchart and/or block diagram can be realized by computer program instructions. These computer program instructions may be provided to a general purpose computer, special purpose computer, embedded processor, or processor of other programmable data processing equipment to produce a machine such that the instructions executed by the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing equipment produce a means for realizing the functions specified in one or more steps of the flowchart and/or one or more blocks of the block diagram.

[0106] These computer program instructions may also be stored in a computer-readable memory capable of directing a computer or other programmable data processing apparatus to operate in a specific manner, such that the instructions stored in the computer-readable memory produce an article of manufacture comprising instruction means, the instructions The device realizes the function specified in one or more procedures of the flowchart and/or one or more blocks of the block diagram.

[0107] These computer program instructions can also be loaded onto a computer or other programmable data processing device, causing a series of operational steps to be performed on the computer or other programmable device to produce a computer-implemented process, thereby The instructions provide steps for implementing the functions specified in the flow chart flow or flows and/or block diagram block or blocks.

[0108] One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment of the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above is exemplary only and not intended to be limiting.

[0109] It will thus be seen that the objects of the present invention have been fully and effectively accomplished. Its embodiments have been shown and described for the purposes of illustrating the functional and structural principles of the present invention and is subject to change without departure from such principles. Therefore, this invention includes all modifications encompassed within the spirit and scope of the following claims.
