The grainboundaries in poly-crystal structure produced by Voronoi tessellations can represent flaws in intact rockand allow for numerical replication of crack damage progression through initiation and propagation ofmicro-fractures along grain boundaries. The Voronoi modelling scheme has been used widely in the pastfor brittle fracture simulation of rock materials. However the difficulty of generating 3D Voronoi modelshas limited its application to two-dimensional (2D) codes. The proposed approach is implemented inNeper, an open-source engine for generation of 3D Voronoi grains, to generate block geometry files thatcan be read directly into 3DEC. A series of Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) tests are simulated in3DEC to verify the proposed methodology for 3D simulation of brittle fractures and to investigate therelationship between each micro-parameter and the model's macro-response. The possibility of numericalreplication of the classical U-shape strength curve for anisotropic rocks is also investigated innumerical UCS tests by using complex-shaped (elongated) grains that are cemented to one another alongtheir adjoining sides. A micro-parameter calibration procedure is established for 3D Voronoi models foraccurate replication of the mechanical behaviour of isotropic and anisotropic (containing a fabric) rocks. 2014 Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.展开更多

文摘Cast iron alloys with low production cost and quite good mechanical properties are widely used in the automotive industry.To study the mechanical behavior of a typical ductile cast iron(GJS-450)with nodular graphite,uni-axial quasi-static and dynamic tensile tests at strain rates of 10^(-4),1,10,100,and 250 s^(-1)were carried out.In order to investigate the influence of stress state on the deformation and fracture parameters,specimens with various geometries were used in the experiments.Stress strain curves and fracture strains of the GJS-450 alloy in the strain rate range of 10^(-4)to 250 s^(-1)were obtained.A strain rate-dependent plastic flow model was proposed to describe the mechanical behavior in the corresponding strain-rate range.The available damage model was extended to take the strain rate into account and calibrated based on the analysis of local fracture strains.Simulations with the proposed plastic flow model and the damage model were conducted to observe the deformation and fracture process.The results show that the strain rate has obviously nonlinear effects on the yield stress and fracture strain of GJS-450 alloys.The predictions with the proposed plastic flow and damage models at various strain rates agree well with the experimental results,which illustrates that the rate-dependent plastic flow and damage models can be used to describe the mechanical behavior of cast iron alloys at elevated strain rates.The proposed plastic flow and damage models can be used to describe the deformation and fracture analysis of materials with similar properties.

文摘To reveal the influence of coupled effects of dry-wet cycling and precompression stress(CEDWCPS)on the damage evolution of limestone with horizontal fissure(LHF),a series of degradation and uniaxial compression tests were conducted,and a corresponding piecewise damage constitutive model(PDCM)was established.We found that both dry-wet cycling and precompression stress deteriorate the physical properties,alter the microscopic characteristics,and reduce the mechanical properties of the LHF.These degradations are particularly pronounced under the CEDWCPS,although the magnitude of these changes gradually diminishes with the progression of dry-wet cycling.Meanwhile,they also reduce the deformation degree,prolong the micropore compaction stage,shorten the unstable crack propagation stage,lower the frequency and intensity of AE events,decrease the high-amplitude and high-frequency AE signals,enlarge crack scales,and shorten the crack initiation time.Among the changes of these indicators,the dry-wet cycling plays a dominant role.The crack types of LHF under the CEDWCPS(LHFCEDWCPS)are predominantly tensile cracks,supplemented by shear cracks.The failure mode can be defined as tensileshear composite failure.Finally,the established PDCM effectively captures the nonlinear deformation of micropore and the linear deformation of the matrix in LHFCEDWCPS,with all corresponding R^(2) consistently exceeding 0.97.

文摘Understanding the deterioration behaviors and mechanisms of rocks under thermo-hydromechanical(THM)interactions is crucial for mitigating slope instability.In this study,the physicomechanical properties of silty mudstone subjected to THM interactions were investigated by triaxial tests.The underlying micro-mechanisms were revealed using microscopic tests.The triaxial test results indicate that the strength parameters of silty mudstone decrease by 89.50%(deformation modulus),78.15%(peak strength),70.58%(cohesion),and 48.65%(friction angle)under 16 THM cycles,a load of 300 kPa,and alternating between 0℃water immersion and 60℃drying.The SEM test results indicate that the deterioration of silty mudstone strength primarily results from hydrothermal-expansion softening and cracking driven by the TLHM interactions.The specimens manifest shear failure under confining pressure exceeding 140 kPa.Furthermore,a new constitutive model considering hydrothermalexpansion strain and non-linear deformation characteristics was developed.The discrepancy between the experimentally measured peak strength and the damage constitutive model prediction remains below 5%.The proposed model is verified to be in satisfactory agreement with the experimental results.The self-designed THM apparatus overcomes the limitations of traditional investigations,enabling simultaneous consideration of thermal,hydraulic,and mechanical interactions.

文摘High ground temperature and unloading disturbance have emerged as critical factors impacting the property of cemented gauge-fly ash backfill(CGFB).The characteristics of energy and damage in CGFB were analyzed under conditions of high ground temperature and unloading by conducting triaxial unloading tests with different initial confining pressures on CGFB that had been cured at various temperatures.Based on dissipative energy,triaxial unloading confining pressure damage constitutive model of CGFB was constructed.It has been demonstrated that the ratio of elastic strain energy in CGFB decreases and the ratio of dissipated energy increases at the end of unloading increases under higher curing temperature.The change in the elastic energy consumption ratio curve of CGFB,which shifts from a gradual increase to a swift rise at a certain"inflection point",can be utilized as a criterion for evaluating the failure of the unloading strength of CGFB.The triaxial unloading damage constitutive model for CGFB divides the damage progression into three distinct phases:initial damage stage,accelerated damage development stage,and rapid damage growth stage.The research findings offer a theoretical foundation for evaluating the extent of damage to CGFB caused by the combined influences of elevated ground temperature and unloading.

文摘The paper is to design and construct a coupled elasto-plasticity damage constitutive model for concrete.Based on the energy dissipation principle,the Hsieh-Ting-Chen four-parameter yield function is used.The model can reflect different strength characteristics of concrete in tension and compression,and reduce the limitation and lacuna of the traditional damage constitutive models for concrete.Furthermore,numerical test for concrete stress-strain relation under uniaxial tension and compression is given.Moreover,the damage process of concrete gravity dam is calculated and analyzed in seismic load.Compared with other damage constitutive models,the proposed model contains only one unknown parameter and the other parameters can be found in the Hsieh-Ting-Chen four-parameter yield function.The same damage evolution law,which is used for tension and compression,is good for determining stress-strain constitutive and damage characteristics in complex stress state.This coupled damage constitutive models can be applied in analyzing damage of concrete gravity dam and arch dam.
文摘A grain-based distinct element model featuring three-dimensional (3D) Voronoi tessellations (randompoly-crystals) is proposed for simulation of crack damage development in brittle rocks. The grainboundaries in poly-crystal structure produced by Voronoi tessellations can represent flaws in intact rockand allow for numerical replication of crack damage progression through initiation and propagation ofmicro-fractures along grain boundaries. The Voronoi modelling scheme has been used widely in the pastfor brittle fracture simulation of rock materials. However the difficulty of generating 3D Voronoi modelshas limited its application to two-dimensional (2D) codes. The proposed approach is implemented inNeper, an open-source engine for generation of 3D Voronoi grains, to generate block geometry files thatcan be read directly into 3DEC. A series of Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) tests are simulated in3DEC to verify the proposed methodology for 3D simulation of brittle fractures and to investigate therelationship between each micro-parameter and the model's macro-response. The possibility of numericalreplication of the classical U-shape strength curve for anisotropic rocks is also investigated innumerical UCS tests by using complex-shaped (elongated) grains that are cemented to one another alongtheir adjoining sides. A micro-parameter calibration procedure is established for 3D Voronoi models foraccurate replication of the mechanical behaviour of isotropic and anisotropic (containing a fabric) rocks. 2014 Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

文摘Four key stress thresholds exist in the compression process of rocks,i.e.,crack closure stress(σ_(cc)),crack initiation stress(σ_(ci)),crack damage stress(σ_(cd))and compressive strength(σ_(c)).The quantitative identifications of the first three stress thresholds are of great significance for characterizing the microcrack growth and damage evolution of rocks under compression.In this paper,a new method based on damage constitutive model is proposed to quantitatively measure the stress thresholds of rocks.Firstly,two different damage constitutive models were constructed based on acoustic emission(AE)counts and Weibull distribution function considering the compaction stages of the rock and the bearing capacity of the damage element.Then,the accumulative AE counts method(ACLM),AE count rate method(CRM)and constitutive model method(CMM)were introduced to determine the stress thresholds of rocks.Finally,the stress thresholds of 9 different rocks were identified by ACLM,CRM,and CMM.The results show that the theoretical stress−strain curves obtained from the two damage constitutive models are in good agreement with that of the experimental data,and the differences between the two damage constitutive models mainly come from the evolutionary differences of the damage variables.The results of the stress thresholds identified by the CMM are in good agreement with those identified by the AE methods,i.e.,ACLM and CRM.Therefore,the proposed CMM can be used to determine the stress thresholds of rocks.

文摘Understanding the mesoscopic tensile fracture damage of rock is the basis of evaluating the deterioration process of mechanical properties of heat-damaged rock. For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.

文摘Coral reef limestone(CRL)constitutes a distinctive marine carbonate formation with complex mechanical properties.This study investigates the multiscale damage and fracture mechanisms of CRL through integrated experimental testing,digital core technology,and theoretical modelling.Two CRL types with contrasting mesostructures were characterized across three scales.Macroscopically,CRL-I and CRL-II exhibited mean compressive strengths of 8.46 and 5.17 MPa,respectively.Mesoscopically,CRL-I featured small-scale highly interconnected pores,whilst CRL-II developed larger stratified pores with diminished connectivity.Microscopically,both CRL matrices demonstrated remarkable similarity in mineral composition and mechanical properties.A novel voxel average-based digital core scaling methodology was developed to facilitate numerical simulation of cross-scale damage processes,revealing network-progressive failure in CRL-I versus directional-brittle failure in CRL-II.Furthermore,a damage statistical constitutive model based on digital core technology and mesoscopic homogenisation theory established quantitative relationships between microelement strength distribution and macroscopic mechanical behavior.These findings illuminate the fundamental mechanisms through which mesoscopic structure governs the macroscopic mechanical properties of CRL.

文摘Magnesium(Mg)alloys,known for their low density and high specific strength,are widely used in the lightweight design of engineering structures.However,their complex mechanical behaviors,particularly including the cyclic plasticity,damage,and fatigue failure influenced by dislocation slipping,twinning,detwinning,and their interactions,present significant challenges in ensuring the safety and reliability of Mg alloy components.Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive understanding of such behaviors and their underlying micro-mechanisms,and the development of reliable constitutive models,damage models,and fatigue life prediction methods.This review highlights recent advancements in these topics by elaborating particularly on the intricate connections between the macroscopic plastic deformation and microscopic mechanisms of Mg alloys,and the initiation and propagation of microcracks and microvoids observed through experimental studies and numerical simulations.We also discuss the progress in the theoretical models that predict the cyclic plasticity and/or fatigue life of Mg alloys.Finally,some topics for future research are suggested.

文摘Localized rock failures,like cracks or shear bands,demand specific attention in modeling for solids and structures.This is due to the uncertainty of conventional continuum-based mechanical models when localized inelastic deformation has emerged.In such scenarios,as macroscopic inelastic reactions are primarily influenced by deformation and microstructural alterations within the localized area,internal variables that signify these microstructural changes should be established within this zone.Thus,localized deformation characteristics of rocks are studied here by the preset angle shear experiment.A method based on shear displacement and shear stress differences is proposed to identify the compaction,yielding,and residual points for enhancing the model's effectiveness and minimizing subjective influences.Next,a mechanical model for the localized shear band is depicted as an elasto-plastic model outlining the stress-displacement relation across both sides of the shear band.Incorporating damage theory and an elasto-plastic model,a proposed damage model is introduced to replicate shear stressdisplacement responses and localized damage evolution in intact rocks experiencing shear failure.Subsequently,a novel nonlinear mathematical model based on modified logistic growth theory is proposed for depicting the shear band's damage evolution pattern.Thereafter,an innovative damage model is proposed to effectively encompass diverse rock material behaviors,including elasticity,plasticity,and softening behaviors.Ultimately,the effects of the preset angles,temperature,normal stresses and the residual shear strength are carefully discussed.This discovery enhances rock research in the proposed damage model,particularly regarding shear failure mode.

文摘Rock is exposed to the combined effects of the confining pressure and strain rate during the dynamic excavation process in deeply buried high-stress tunnels.Therefore,a constitutive model that considers both the strain rate and the confining pressure effect plays a crucial role in evaluating the disturbance and stability of deeply buried tunnels.Taking mudstone as an example,a series of tests were performed to reveal the combined effect of the strain rate and confining pressure on the mechanical behavior of soft rock,and a novel statistical damage constitutive model was proposed.The confining pressures of 0 MPa,10 MPa,20 MPa,and 30 MPa and strain rates of 10^(-5)s^(-1),10^(-4)s^(-1),10^(-3)s^(-1),and 10^(-2)s^(-1)were investigated.The results show that the rock strength increases with increasing confining pressure and strain rate,and that the contributions of these two factors can be considered independent of each other.However,an increase in the confining pressure reduces the degree of rock damage and increases the ductility of the sample at failure,whereas the strain rate has the opposite effect.Finally,a full deformation process damage model considering strain rate effect is established based on a modified Hoek‒Brown strength criterion considering the strain rate.The model can capture the nonlinear increase in strength and elastic modulus with increasing confining pressure and strain rate,reproducing the brittle‒ductile transition characteristics and the full deformation process.

文摘The trade-off between mechanistic interpretability,operational convenience,and predictive accuracy is challenging for predicting the lifetime of lithium-ion batteries.To resolve this contradiction,we propose a damage model based on fatigue damage theory and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.The causal relationship of“fatigue damage→resistance increase→capacity fading”is revealed to describe the underlying mechanism.Charge transfer resistance is chosen as the variable to ensure the convenience of data acquisition.To verify the accuracy of the model,the electrochemical impedance spectrum and capacity of a graphene-coated silicon electrode at two charging rates are collected and analyzed.50% and 75% of the measured data are utilized as inputs to compare the prediction capabilities of the proposed damage model and the existing empirical model.The particle filter algorithm is adopted to train the parameters of both models.The maximum prediction error of the damage model is less than 3%,showing better prediction accuracy and medium-term prediction stability than the empirical model.Our work demonstrates that the proposed damage model is an effective way to resolve contradictions in lifetime prediction.

文摘This paper presents an investigation of well integrity during low-temperature CO_(2)injection using a model of thermo-poroelasticity with interface damage mechanics.The casing-cement and cement-formation interfaces are described using cohesive interface elements and a bilinear traction-separation law.Verification testing is performed to establish the correct implementation of the coupled thermal,hydraulic,and mechanical equations.Simulation scenarios are developed to determine well interface damage initiation and development for intact wells and wells with an initial defect in the form of a 45°debonded azimuth.Each intact and defective well was simulated for30 days of CO_(2)injection at selected temperatures.Under the conditions considered,tensile radial stress developed at both the casing-cement and cement-formation interfaces.Hoop stress in the cement sheath remained compressive after 30 days but with reduced magnitude at the lower injection temperature,indicating greater risk of tensile stress and radial cracking as the injection temperature was reduced.Damage occurred in two of four scenarios considered,namely,the intact and defective wells at an injection temperature of 10℃,and was limited to the casing-cement interface,with no damage to the cement-formation interface.Inclusion of the pre-existing defect led to earlier damage initiation,at 2.75 days compared to 4 days,and produced a microannulus with over double the peak aperture at 0.077 mm compared to 0.037 mm.These findings emphasize the importance of accounting for initial defects and damage evolution when investigating the integrity of CO_(2)injection wells.

文摘To investigate groundwater influence on stability and rockburst mechanism of deep hard-rock rectangular tunnels,water-immersed treatment and uniaxial compressive acoustic emission(AE)experiments were conducted on rectangular tunnel specimens.Energy dissipation characteristics,AE evolution characteristics and damage evolution characteristics of rectangular tunnels were analysed under waterimmersed condition.Under water-immersed condition,tunnel specimens were quite sensitive to water.Average peak stress and average peak strain energy exhibited negative exponential decay with waterimmersed time.Among them,after 12 d of water immersion,average peak stress of specimens decreased by 28%.Average total strain energy decreased by 70%.Average elastic strain energy decreased by 71%and average dissipated strain energy decreased by 68%.After 62 d of water immersion,average peak stress of specimens decreased by 34%.Average total strain energy decreased by 78%.Average elastic strain energy decreased by 79%and average dissipated strain energy decreased by 75%.Water weakened bonding among mineral particles.Moreover,it undermined load-bearing capacity and diminished energystorage properties.Under high stress,massive releasable elastic strain energy stored in natural specimens within pre-peak stage may abruptly release after peak stress.This caused rapid crack development and connection in specimens.During accumulation and release of elastic strain energy,initial failure typically occurred at sidewalls.This failure location was not affected by water.Compared with natural specimens,Specimens immersed in water for 62 d had the lowest peak values of cumulative amplitude,cumulative AE energy and cumulative AE count.After 62 d of water immersion,peak values of cumulative amplitude,cumulative AE energy and cumulative AE count of specimens decreased by 84%,97%and 99%.Compared with AE damage model,fitting degree of energy damage model was higher.For natural specimens,fitting degree of energy damage model was 0.96.For specimens immersed in water for 12 d,fitting degree of energy damage model was 0.96.For specimens immersed in water for 62 d,fitting degree of energy damage model was 0.72.Therefore,an energy damage model had more remarkable applicability and reliability.By establishing dynamic mapping relationship between energy and damage in the model,accuracy of rockburst early warning has been significantly improved.This provided scientific basis for support structure design of rectangular tunnels and regulation of high strain energy.

文摘A novel shear damage model based on homogenization theory and a modified Mohr-Coulomb criterion is proposed to predict the full deformation process of gas hydrate-bearing sediments(GHBSs)during shearing by analyzing micro-mechanisms of shear deformation and failure characteristics.Then,the physical significance of the model's parameters is explored.Finally,the damage evolution and shear stress partition inside GHBSs during the shearing process are analyzed in detail.The results show that model parameters have clear physical meaning,and the shear damage model is capable of reflecting the nonlinear deformation and strain softening characteristics of GHBSs due to its ability to better describe the damage evolution and shear stress partition mechanisms inside GHBSs during the shearing process.Comparisons of experimental and theoretical results show that the global performance of the novel shear damage model is satisfactory.The model is expected to be widely adopted to analyze submarine landslide instability due to hydrate dissociation.

文摘High-altitude cold regions exhibit complex geological and environmental conditions,fostering steep rock slopes with macroscopic joints and mesoscopic freeze-thaw(F-T)damage.Cyclic loading further exacerbates rock instability,yet the fracture mechanisms and load response relationships remain poorly understood.This study prepared intact and fractured sandstone specimens,subjected them to F-T cycles and graded loading-unloading,and monitored their structural evolution via X-ray computed tomography.First,the progressive failure process was investigated from both qualitative morphologic features and quantitative void parameters.The results showed that intact and fractured sandstone instability behaviors are determined by F-T damage and joint arrangement,respectively.However,both indicate that precursory localization of failure can only be detected when heterogeneous damage exists in advance.Furthermore,the void parameters of undamaged intact sandstone exhibit power-law acceleration,while damaged sandstones are characterized by a trend of initial decrease followed by an increase.Subsequently,a damage constitutive model for freeze-thawed fractured sandstone under graded loading-unloading was established.This model is based on the Lemaitre strain equivalence hypothesis and defines the coupled damage variable through multivariable indicators.In this framework,the material damage induced by fractures and F-T is unified and characterized by void parameters;while the load-induced damage is integrated with the energy linear allocation law and defined by damage energy.Thus,the stress-strain theoretical relationship is depicted,and the model is validated as reliable.Finally,a conceptual model of rock damage due to F-T and loading-unloading was proposed by combining the microscopic testing results from X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.
