Research on Displacement Field of Soil around Pile with Different Density Based on Particle Image Testing Technology

Particle image testing technology has the advantages of non-intervention and high precision. In this paper, the particle image testing technology is combined with the indoor model test to explore the displacement development trend of the soil around the horizontal loaded pile under the difference of soil properties between layers. The principle of PIV technology is described, and the single-layer soil test group and the layered soil test group are set up, respectively. To this end, the indoor model test is carried out by changing the soil density. The study reveals that particle image testing technology can reduce the influence of data acquisition equipment on model tests in the maximum range, and restore the development trend of surface soil displacement in the horizontal load pile test to the greatest extent. Under the same load, the displacement influence area formed in front of and behind the pile of the two groups of tests takes the shape of a spindle centred on the pile body. The influence range of surface soil decreases with the increase of density. Moreover, the results of Tecplot analysis show that the soil stiffness is ranked from small to large as follows: single layer coarse sand, upper layer large particle size and lower layer small particle size test group, upper layer small particle size and lower layer large particle size test group, single layer fine sand. The test results can provide reference for the deepening of practical engineering.
