We present an aerosol injection technique (AIT) to accelerate the consolidation of soft soils for ground improvement. We employ high-pressure aerosol injections at different depths to enhance the drainage in soft soils for faster consolidation. The technique is briefly described. A well-instrumented field test is carried out to demonstrate its performance. Compared to the traditional methods, our approach gives rise to faster dissipation of excess pore pressure and larger ground settlement. This method is particularly attractive for the improvement in soft ground in medium depths.

气溶胶注入技术加速软土地基固结：一项现场研究

我们提出一种气溶胶喷射技术（AIT），以加速软土的固结，以改善地面状况。我们在不同深度采用高压气雾剂注入，以增强软土中的排水能力，从而加快固结速度。简要介绍了该技术。进行了良好仪器的现场测试以证明其性能。与传统方法相比，我们的方法可以更快地消散多余的孔隙压力和更大的地面沉降。该方法对于改善中等深度的软土地基特别有吸引力。
