  • Patent number: 12360070
    Abstract: An in-situ evaluation method and system for loess collapsibility based on non-destructive time-domain reflection technology, includes: calculating loess dry density and mass water content; considering loess dry density, mass water content and basic physical property indicators, and evaluating loess collapsibility in situ through mathematical models. The loess collapsibility in-situ evaluation method based on the non-destructive time domain reflectometry technology of the present invention can not only realize whether the loess has collapsibility, but also has the potential to distinguish strong, medium and slight collapsibility.

  • Publication number: 20240230616
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a cone penetrometer for detecting multi-pollutants and the corresponding method based on laser induced fluorescence (LIF) and time domain reflectometry (TDR). The cone penetrometer includes two main modules: the TDR module mainly composes of a PEEK insulating rod, two gold-coated stainless steel probes and a coaxial cable; the LIF module mainly composes of endoscope image sensor, alumina glass lens, an ultraviolet LED with a 280 nm-wavelength, and an ultraviolet LED with a 325 nm-wavelength. Detection is performed to obtain the soil dielectric constant for characterizing the volumetric water content, electrical conductivity for the content of ionic pollutants, fluorescence intensity at 325 nm-wavelength for the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, fluorescence intensity at 280 nm-wavelength for the content of humic acid, and soil images for soil types.

  • Publication number: 20240102955
    Abstract: A non-invasive time domain reflection probe calibration method includes: using different volume ratio of ethanol and deionized water mixed solution to calculate a test target's medium weight coefficient and waveguide length of the non-invasive time domain reflection probes; using different concentrations of NaCl solutions to calibrate a waveguide geometric dimensioning of the non-invasive time domain reflection probes; preparing compacted soil samples with known different moisture contents and densities, and calibrating a correlation parameter of compacted soil samples' dielectric constant and conductivity with moisture content and density. The method not only determines the sensitivity of the test target medium of the non-invasive time domain reflection probes, but also obtains the waveguide length and geometric dimensioning of the probe, and realizes an accurate test of moisture content and density of the soil.
