Abstract
Due to the characteristics of geographical environment and many complicated factors, the seepage properties of calcareous sand are quite different from those of common continental and marine sediments. To investigate the change of permeability coefficient of calcareous sand under external load, a seepage test device equipped with an impact loading system was developed. The effects of particle size distribution, initial relative density and impact load on the permeability of calcareous sand were investigated with this device. The results showed that the larger the curvature coefficient and uniformity coefficient, the smaller the initial relative density lead to the greater the permeability coefficient of calcareous sand and the more obvious the change of permeability coefficient before and after loading. The permeability change of calcareous sand under impact load was greater than that of quartz sand.
