Abstrait:

This study presents a rigorous approach for the extraction of the modulus of soil and unbound aggregate base materials for quality management using intelligent compaction (IC) technology. The proposed approach makes use of machine-learning methods in tandem with IC technology and modulus-based spot testing as a local calibration process to estimate the mechanical properties of compacted geomaterials. A calibrated three-dimensional finite element (FE) model that simulates the proof-mapping process of compacted geomaterials was used to develop a comprehensive database of responses of a wide range of single and two-layered geosystems. The database was then used to develop different inverse solvers using artificial neural networks for the estimation of the modulus from the characteristics of the roller and information about the geomaterials. Several instrumented test sites were used for the evaluation and validation of the inverse solvers. The proposed approach was found promising for the extraction of the modulus of compacted geomaterials using IC. The accuracy of the inverse solvers is enhanced if a local calibration process is incorporated as part of a quality management program that includes the use of in situ measurements using modulus-based test devices and laboratory resilient modulus testing. Moreover, compaction uniformity plays a key role in the retrieval of the modulus of geomaterials with certainty. The proposed approach fuses artificial intelligence with mechanistic solutions to position IC as a technology that is well suited for the quality management of compacted materials.
