The evolution damage is analyzed in terms of the experimental results, and close attention is paid to the effect of damage evolution on Poisson＇s ratio. This study shows that Poisson＇s ratio is significantly affected by the concentration of solution and water-cement ratio. Poisson＇s ratio of concrete changes very little when the water-cement ratio is selected as 0.6 or 0.8, so that such change may be neglected. If water-cement is 0.4, however, the Poisson＇s ratio of the sample significantly changes. When the concrete sample of 0.4 water-cement ratio is immersed in sodium sulfate solution of 8% concentration for 285 days, Poisson＇s ratio increase 10.14% compared with its initial value. There exist a sensitive region and a non-sensitive region for the change rate of Poisson＇s ratio with respect to corrosion time. The change rate of Poisson＇s ratio monotonously decreases with corrosion time in the sensitive region; in the non-sensitive region, the change rate of Poisson＇s ratio is almost equal to zero.展开更多

Understanding of the damage evolution behavior in brittle rocks during loading and unloading is imperative for the designs of rock structures. In this paper, we investigate the damage evolution characteristics of a granitic rock during loading and unloading after a series of triaxial experiments performed at different confining pressures. The axial stress-axial strain variations of the tested specimens revealed that the specimens undergoing unloading fail with a lower axial strain compared to the specimens failed purely by loading. Higher confining pressures were observed to exacerbate the difference. Volumetric strain versus axial strain curves indicated that the curves reverse the trend with the beginning of major damage of specimens. We suggest here a new form of equation to describe the secant modulus variation of brittle rocks against the axial stress for the unloading process. Failure mechanisms of tested specimens showed two distinct patterns, namely, specimens under pure loading failed with a single distinct shear fracture while for the unloading case specimens displayed multiple intersecting fractures. In addition, analysis of the evolution of dissipation and elastic energy during deformation of the specimens under loading and unloading conditions showed differentiable characteristics. Moreover, we evaluated the variations of two damage indices defined based on the energy dissipation and secant modulus evolution during deformation and observed that both of them satisfactorily distinguish key stages of damage evolution.展开更多

文摘Silicon carbide(SiC)ceramics are extensively utilized in aerospace,national defense,and petrochemical industries due to their superior physical and chemical properties.The processing of bulk SiC ceramics necessitates precise and efficient grinding techniques to produce components with satisfactory functionality.However,the inherent high hardness and brittleness of SiC ceramics present significant challenges during grinding,leading to severe brittle fracture and tool wear that compromise both surface integrity and production efficiency.Although ductile-regime grinding of SiC ceramics can be achieved by enhancing machine tool accuracy and stiffness while optimizing wheel performance alongside appropriate selection of process parameters,a comprehensive summary of the mechanisms underlying damage evolution during grinding is lacking,and a mature grinding process for SiC ceramics has yet to be developed.To bridge this gap,the sintering technologies,mechanical properties,and microstructures of SiC ceramics were briefly covered.The grinding-induced damage mechanism and low-damage grinding technologies of SiC ceramics were summarized.The fundamental science underlying the ductile deformation and removal mechanisms of brittle solids was emphasized.Additionally,attention was directed towards the critical role of hybrid energy field grinding in minimizing brittle damages and promoting removal efficiency.This review not only elucidates the intrinsic interactions between the work material and abrasives,but also offers valuable insights for optimizing the grinding processes of brittle solids.

文摘Evaluation of damage evolution effects in biodegradable pure Mg was carried out,using transmission electron microscope as surrogate irradiation for high-energy radionuclide β decay in Brachytherapy.Time-dependent quantitative defect production,evolution dynamics,and evolution statistics were revealed in-situ for two prism foils(z=[1.210],[10.10]),in as-received and heat-treated pure Mg,after 300 keV electron irradiation up to 0.468 dpa at R.T.Preferred nucleation of basal-plane interstitial-type 1/6<20.23>loops was confirmed,in addition to a small portion of prism-plane 1/3<11.20>loops.No cavities were found.A higher yield of point defect concentration and a more evident trend of defect coarsening were identified in[1.210]than in[10.10].Pre-existing dislocations(on the orders of 10^(13)−10^(14) m^(−2))in pure Mg resulted in a delay of the first occurrence of visible defects.Defect migration and elastic interactions governed the microstructural evolution of electron irradiation damage in pure Mg,giving rise to events of loop coalescence,growth,and sometimes rotation of habit plane.The influence of incident electron energy can be correlated to the rates of point defect production,and is quantifiable;however,interfered by defect cluster stability,defect mobility,and defect interactions.This forms an important theoretical basis for the application of Mg subjected to MeV-level β-decay radiation in Brachytherapy.The paper concludes with a brief comparison between Mg and conventional Ti casing,outlines the advantages and challenges,and provides reference points for the validation of Mg/Mg-alloys in Brachytherapy seed application.

文摘To investigate the effects of the spraying process and different fibers on the mechanical properties and failure patterns of ultrahigh performance concrete(UHPC),three types of fibers were used.These fibers were formed using both spraying and molding methods.Uniaxial compression tests were conducted,and two nondestructive monitoring techniques,acoustic emission(AE)and digital image correlation,were employed to monitor the uniaxial compression tests.The results indicated that the compressive strength of UHPC with single steel fibers and hybrid fibers increased by about 19%and 14%compared with those of UHPC with polyoxymethylene fibers.In comparison with molded UHPC,sprayed UHPC showed a slight improvement in compressive strength.Specimens containing steel fibers exhibited better post-cracking ductility,whereas those with only polyoxymethylene fibers displayed a certain degree of brittle failure.In sprayed UHPC,the onset of significant internal damage was delayed,which was related to the redistribution of internal fibers.The failure of UHPC was characterized by primary tensile cracks,supplemented by shear cracks.The spraying process can better restrict the development of tensile cracks in UHPC.Sprayed UHPC typically exhibited multiple crack developments leading to failure,whereas molded UHPC generally failed in the form of a single main crack penetrating the specimen.The addition of steel fibers delayed the occurrence of local stress concentration zones,aligning well with AE monitoring data.

文摘Gas storage in abandoned mines is one way to reuse waste space resources.The surrounding rock of gas storage reservoirs in underground roadways undergoes damage and deformation under the cyclic loading of gas charging and discharging,which can pose a risk to the safety of the reservoirs.This study establishes a true triaxial numerical model of rock mass with the discrete element method(DEM)and explores the crack evolution of surrounding rock of underground gas storage during cyclic loading and unloading.Also,a damage evolution model in numerical analysis considering residual deformation is developed to explain the experimental results.As was revealed,cyclic loading and unloading resulted in fatigue damage in the specimen and caused strength deterioration of the specimen.During the loading process,the uniformly distributed force chains of the rock mass redistributed,evolving gradually to mostly transverse force chains.This contributed to the appearance of blank areas in the force chains when through cracks appear.The ratio of tensile cracks to shear cracks gradually decreases and finally stabilizes at 7:1.The damage evolution model considering residual strain can be mutually verified with the numerical simulation results.Based on the DEM model,it was found that there was a certain threshold of confining pressure.When the confining pressure exceeded 30 MPa,the deformation to ductility of sandstone samples began to accelerate,with a greater residual strength.This study provides a theoretical basis for analyzing the long-term mechanical behavior of surrounding rock of gas storage in abandoned mines.

文摘To address the issue of extreme thermal-induced arching in CRTS II slab tracks due to joint damage,an optimized joint repair model was proposed.First,the formula for calculating the safe temperature rise of the track was derived based on the principle of stationary potential energy.Considering interlayer evolution and structural crack propagation,an optimized joint repair model for the track was established and validated.Subsequently,the impact of joint repair on track damage and arch stability under extreme temperatures was studied,and a comprehensive evaluation of the feasibility of joint repair and the evolution of damage after repair was conducted.The results show that after the joint repair,the temperature rise of the initial damage of the track structure can be increased by 11℃.Under the most unfavorable heating load with a superimposed temperature gradient,the maximum stiffness degradation index SDEG in the track structure is reduced by about 81.16%following joint repair.The joint repair process could effectively reduce the deformation of the slab arching under high temperatures,resulting in a reduction of 93.96%in upward arching deformation.After repair,with the damage to interfacing shear strength,the track arch increases by 2.616 mm.

文摘In deep coal mining,surrounding rock is subjected to both high in-situ stress and intense mining disturbances,leading to significant time-dependent behavior.Accurately capturing this behavior is essential for predicting long-term roadway stability,necessitating the development of a reliable constitutive creep model and numerical simulation approach.In this study,creep experiments were conducted on pre-damaged rock with varying initial damage levels to investigate the time-dependent mechanical properties.Based on the experimental results,an accelerated-creep criterion was proposed,and an elastic-viscoplastic creep damage model(EVPCD)was established that simultaneously considers the effects of time-dependent damage and instantaneous damage caused by stress disturbances on rock creep behavior.Subsequently,the effectiveness of the proposed creep model was verified using experimental data,and the secondary development of the EVPCD model was completed based on the FLAC3D platform.Following this,a long-term stability analysis method of deep surrounding rock that accounts for excavation-and mining-induced disturbances was proposed.Using the main roadway of Xutuan Coal Mine as a case study,numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the time-dependent deformation and failure characteristics of the surrounding rock following excavation and mining disturbance.Combined with on-site monitoring of the surrounding rock damage areas,the results indicate that the EVPCD outperforms the CVISC and Nishihara models in predicting the time-dependent behavior of deep surrounding rock.

文摘Thermal-mechanical damage and deformation at the interface between shotcrete linings and the surrounding rock of tunnels under high-temperature and variable-temperature conditions are critical to the safe construction and operation of tunnel engineering.This study investigated the thermo-mechanical damage behavior of the composite interface between alkali-resistant glass fiber-reinforced concrete(ARGFRC)and granite,focusing on a plateau railway tunnel.Laboratory triaxial tests,laser scanning,XRD analysis,numerical simulations,and theoretical analyses were employed to investigate how different initial curing temperatures and joint roughness coefficient(JRC)influence interfacial damage behavior.The results indicate that an increase in interface roughness exacerbates the structural damage at the interface.At a JRC of 19.9 and a temperature of 70℃,crack initiation in granite was notably restrained when the confining pressure rose from 7 MPa to 10 MPa.Roughness-induced stress distribution at the interface was notably altered,although this effect became less pronounced under high confining pressure conditions.Additionally,during high-temperature curing,thermal stress concentration at the tips of micro-convex protrusions on the granite surface induced microcracks in the adjacent ARGFRC matrix,followed by deformation.These findings provide practical guidelines for designing concrete support systems to ensure tunnel structural safety in high-altitude regions with harsh thermal environments.

文摘The damage evolution of polycrystalline Al with helium(He)bubbles under strongly decaying shock waves is studied by molecular dynamics simulations.A new damage region is observed near the loading side of the sample,and the evolution characteristics and underlying mechanisms are elucidated.The development of damage in the new damage region begins after complete unloading of the incident shock wave and is further enhanced when the tensile stress arrives later.The damage evolution is completely controlled by the expansion-merging of He bubbles,without nucleation–growth of voids.This new damage region can be divided into two sections,each of which exhibits a unique dominant mechanism.The damage in the section closer to the loading side is due to the reverse velocity gradient formed after complete unloading of the incident shock wave,depending on the rate of decrease and the amplitude of the initial peak pressure.A high initial peak pressure that can lead to melting of material near the loading side is a necessary condition for the formation of the new damage region,since a significant reverse velocity gradient can only be established if melting occurs.The dominant mechanism in the section distant from the loading side is the action of tensile stress,associated with the profile of the incident shock wave upon reaching the free surface,which determines the material phase near the free surface.Moreover,the presence of He bubbles is another critical factor for formation of the new damage region,which does not occur in pure Al samples.

文摘This study investigates the influence of loading frequency on the fatigue behavior of ballastless track concrete for high-speed railways,aiming to support the development of concrete capable of withstanding higher operational speeds.Fatigue tests were conducted at loading frequencies ranging from 5 to 40 Hz,with a focus on fatigue life,damage evolution,energy dissipation,and residual fatigue strain in the concrete.The results indicate that between 5 and 15 Hz,the fatigue life and energy dissipation remain relatively stable,with minimal damage evolution and small residual strains.As the frequency increases to 15-20 Hz,the fatigue life and energy dissipation gradually decrease,while damage accumulation and residual strain increase.Beyond 20 Hz,both fatigue life and energy dissipation decrease rapidly,damage accumulation becomes more pronounced,and residual strain continues to rise.These phenomena are primarily attributed to the increased strain rate and load change rate at higher frequencies,which affect the microstructure evolution and lead to reduced fatigue performance.

文摘Aiming at the problem of dynamic instability of hard-brittle jointed rock surrounding in deep tunnel/roadway engineering,combining with the support concepts of"coupling rigidity with flexibility"and"overcoming rigidity by flexibility",the prevention and control method with"rigid-flexible coupling(R-F-C)"was put forward.Through numerical simulation calculation,the impact damage process,acoustic emission(AE)evolution characteristics,and element stress/displacement evolution characteristics of unsupported surrounding rock structure model,rigid supporting surrounding rock structure model,and"R-F-C"supporting surrounding rock structure model under horizontal bidirectional impact loading were compared and analyzed.Based on the theory of stress wave propagation,the dynamic instability catastrophe mechanism of three kinds of supporting structure models induced by horizontal bidirectional impact loading was revealed.Based on the Mohr-Coulomb strength theory,the stress discrimination methods of dynamic catastrophe of surrounding rock induced by horizontal bidirectional impact loading under three kinds of supporting structures were proposed.Combined with the above numerical simulation study,the explosion impact physical and mechanical test of"R-F-C"surrounding rock supporting plate structure was further designed and carried out.Finally,combined with the"conceptual model of ball-cliff potential energy instability",the energy driving theory and energy transformation mechanism of impact-induced rockburst under three kinds of supporting structures were discussed deeply.The research results provided a scientific basis for further promoting the effective application of"R-F-C"supporting structure in the prevention and control of dynamic instability of deep tunnel/roadway surrounding rock.

文摘Experimental results about concrete under sulfate attack are summarized, which include the variation of mass density of samples and velocity of ultrasonic wave propagating in samples. The evolution damage is analyzed in terms of the experimental results, and close attention is paid to the effect of damage evolution on Poisson＇s ratio. This study shows that Poisson＇s ratio is significantly affected by the concentration of solution and water-cement ratio. Poisson＇s ratio of concrete changes very little when the water-cement ratio is selected as 0.6 or 0.8, so that such change may be neglected. If water-cement is 0.4, however, the Poisson＇s ratio of the sample significantly changes. When the concrete sample of 0.4 water-cement ratio is immersed in sodium sulfate solution of 8% concentration for 285 days, Poisson＇s ratio increase 10.14% compared with its initial value. There exist a sensitive region and a non-sensitive region for the change rate of Poisson＇s ratio with respect to corrosion time. The change rate of Poisson＇s ratio monotonously decreases with corrosion time in the sensitive region; in the non-sensitive region, the change rate of Poisson＇s ratio is almost equal to zero.

文摘In-situ rock failures can result from stress changes due to pure loading and/or unloading. Understanding of the damage evolution behavior in brittle rocks during loading and unloading is imperative for the designs of rock structures. In this paper, we investigate the damage evolution characteristics of a granitic rock during loading and unloading after a series of triaxial experiments performed at different confining pressures. The axial stress-axial strain variations of the tested specimens revealed that the specimens undergoing unloading fail with a lower axial strain compared to the specimens failed purely by loading. Higher confining pressures were observed to exacerbate the difference. Volumetric strain versus axial strain curves indicated that the curves reverse the trend with the beginning of major damage of specimens. We suggest here a new form of equation to describe the secant modulus variation of brittle rocks against the axial stress for the unloading process. Failure mechanisms of tested specimens showed two distinct patterns, namely, specimens under pure loading failed with a single distinct shear fracture while for the unloading case specimens displayed multiple intersecting fractures. In addition, analysis of the evolution of dissipation and elastic energy during deformation of the specimens under loading and unloading conditions showed differentiable characteristics. Moreover, we evaluated the variations of two damage indices defined based on the energy dissipation and secant modulus evolution during deformation and observed that both of them satisfactorily distinguish key stages of damage evolution.

文摘This paper reports the modeling method and outcomes of mechanical performance and damage evolution of single-lap bolted composite interference-fit joints under extreme temperatures.The anisotropic continuum damage model involving thermal effects is established on continuum damage mechanics which integrates the shear nonlinearity constitutive relations characterized by Romberg-Osgood equation.The temperature-induced modification of thermal strains and material properties is incorporated in stress-strain analysis,extended 3 D failure criteria and exponential damage evolution rules.The proposed model is calibrated and employed to simulate behavior of composite joints in interference fitting,bolt preloading,thermal and bearing loading processes,during which the influence of interference-fit sizes,preload levels,laminate layups and service temperatures is thoroughly investigated.The predicated interfacial behavior,bearing response and failure modes are in good agreement with experimental tests.The numerical model is even capable of reflecting some non-intuitive experimental findings such as residual stress relaxation and matrix softening at elevated temperatures.

文摘To understand the anisotropy dependence of the damage evolution and material removal during the machining process of MgF_(2) single crystals,nanoscratch tests of MgF_(2) single crystals with different crystal planes and directions were systematically performed,and surface morphologies of the scratched grooves under different conditions were analyzed.The experimental results indicated that anisotropy considerably affected the damage evolution in the machining process of MgF_(2) single crystals.A stress field model induced by the scratch was developed by considering the anisotropy,which indicated that during the loading process,median cracks induced by the tensile stress initiated and propagated at the front of the indenter.Lateral cracks induced by tensile stress initiated and propagated on the subsurface during the unloading process.In addition,surface radial cracks induced by the tensile stress were easily generated during the unloading process.The stress change led to the deflection of the propagation direction of lateral cracks.Therefore,the lateral cracks propagated to the workpiece surface,resulting in brittle removal in the form of chunk chips.The plastic deformation parameter indicated that the more the slip systems were activated,the more easily the plastic deformation occurred.The cleavage fracture parameter indicated that the cracks propagated along the activated cleavage planes,and the brittle chunk removal was owing to the subsurface cleavage cracks propagating to the crystal surface.Under the same processing parameters,the scratch of the(001)crystal plane along the[100]crystal-orientation was found to be the most conducive to achieving plastic machining of MgF_(2) single crystals.The theoretical results agreed well with the experimental results,which will not only enhance the understanding of the anisotropy dependence of the damage evolution and removal process during the machining of MgF_(2) crystals,but also provide a theoretical foundation for achieving the high-efficiency and low-damage processing of anisotropic single crystals.

文摘A closed,trans-scale formulation of damage evolution based on the statistical mi- crodamage mechanics is summarized in this paper.The dynamic function of damage bridges the mesoscopic and macroscopic evolution of damage.The spallation in an aluminium plate is studied with this formulation.It is found that the damage evolution is governed by several dimensionless parameters, i.e.,imposed Deborah numbers De~* and De,Mach number M and damage number S.In particular, the most critical mode of the macroscopic damage evolution,i.e.,the damage localization,is deter- mined by Deborah number De~*.Deborah number De~* reflects the coupling and competition between the macroscopic loading and the microdamage growth.Therefore,our results reveal the multi-scale nature of spallation.In fact,the damage localization results from the nonlinearity of the microdamage growth.In addition,the dependence of the damage rate on imposed Deborah numbers De~* and De, Mach number M and damage number S is discussed.

文摘To investigate the dynamic damage evolution characteristics of bank slopes with serrated structural planes,the shaking table model test and the numerical simulation were utilized.The main findings indicate that under continuous seismic loads,the deformation of the bank slope increased,particularly around the hydro-fluctuation belt,accompanying by the pore water pressure rising.The soil pressure increased and then decreased showed dynamic variation characteristics.As the undulation angle of the serrated structural planes increased(30°, 45°, and 60°),the failure modes were climbing,climbinggnawing,and gnawing respectively.The first-order natural frequency was used to calculate the damage degree(Dd)of the bank slope.During microseisms and small earthquakes,it was discovered that the evolution of Dd followed the“S”shape,which was fitted by a logic function.Additionally,the quadratic function was used to fit the Dd during moderately strong earthquakes.Through the numerical simulation,the variation characteristics of safety factors(Sf)for slopes with serrated structural planes and slopes with straight structural planes were compared.Under continuous seismic loads,the Sf of slopes with straight structural planes reduce stalely,whereas the Sf for slopes with serrated structural planes was greater than the former and the reduction rate was increasing.
