Resumen
The study of deep soil mechanics is the basis of deep shaft construction. Exploring the nonlinear permeability mechanism of deep confined aquifers in depth is the prerequisite and foundation for carrying out calculations of the hydrophobic consolidation settlement of thick alluviums and preventing and controlling deep-well-damage disasters. Against the background of shaft damage caused by hydrophobic consolidation settlement of the bottom aquifer of thick alluviums, a joint HPLTC-HPPNP (high-pressure long-term consolidation and high-pore-pressure nonlinear permeability) test was carried out on the bottom aquifer of thick alluviums based on the ETAS test system. This paper studied the evolution law of the permeability coefficient (kv" role="presentation">????kv

) of bottom aquifers under different heads of confined water, confining pressures (σr" role="presentation">????sr

), permeability hydraulic gradients (i) and loading?unloading methods. The internal pore structure characteristics of clayey sand were obtained by using low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technology to explore the clayey sand?s nonlinear permeability micro-mechanism. The research results showed that the bottom aquifer seepage volume (ΔQi" role="presentation">??????Qi

The research results of this paper provide a good experimental method for the study of deep soil permeability characteristics and parameter determination, provide a theoretical basis for deep alluvial hydrophobic consolidation and settlement, and further make up for the shortcomings of existing deep soil mechanics in permeability characteristics.
