Physical and Mechanical Characteristics of Seabed Sediment Microstructure in the Northern Shelf of the South China Sea
In the present work, the scanning electron-microscopic observations, electronprobing (energy spectrum) analyses and the analyses of physico-mechanical parmeters have been made for the sediments from two areas of the South China Sea Shelf (i.e., the sea area off the Pearl River mouth and the sea area to the south of Hainan Island); the relaion between the microstructures and the geotechnical (engineering) properties of the shelf seabed sediments has been investigated. Results of analyses reveal the diversity of the micro-structures of sediment and lead to a preliminary micro-structures classification. According to the packing and interconnecting (mutual cotacting) styles of sediment grains, the structure of pores and based on the physical and mechanical parameters, it is possible to comprehensively assess the engineering property of the microenvironments of marine sediments.
