Study on the Influence of Sand Core Compactness on Surface Entropy considering Engineering Disturbance by Ding-li Su, Hang Chen, Xuemiao Xu, Mengxiong Tang, He-song Hu

“…There is a close relationship between grain texture and compactness. (2) The calculation results of sand image entropy of one-dimensional entropy and two-dimensional entropy showed that the entropy value of loose, slightly dense, and medium dense sand images is positively correlated with the compactness of sand. (3) The maximum variance of two-dimensional entropy of loose, slightly dense, and medium dense sand image in the same borehole is less than 0.09, and the data variance amplification effect of two-dimensional entropy of image is mainly between different boreholes. (4) The dense feature of core sample structure forms an ordered structure with a gray change boundary, which increases the roughness of the image and leads to the increase of entropy. …”
