Image-Based Characterization Techniques for Geotechnical Applications
Abstract Recent advances in digital technology led to great improvement in understanding and solving many geotechnical engineering problems. This paper presents few important image-based techniques for precise characterizations, applicable to geotechnical engineering and demonstrates the same. Some of the important applications discussed in this paper are particle shape characterization of granular materials, quantification of surface roughness of sand particles, measurement of shear band thickness in direct shear tests and correlating it to the shear strength of soils, and microtopographical analysis of geosynthetic surfaces to understand shear-induced surface changes and correlating them to their interface shear behavior. While experimental measurements fall short to render required accuracy to these problems, image-based studies offer better visualization of underlying mechanisms along with accurate quantifications.
