文摘The study of the shear behavior of bonded rock-cement interface is important for understanding the strength and stability of grouted rock masses.This research aims to reveal the failure mechanism behind the shear property of bonded rock-cement interfaces.For the study,sandstone and granite joint blocks with specific morphology were fabricated by using a three-dimensional(3D)engraving technique.Bonded rock-cement joints with asperity inclination angles of 15°,30°,and 45°were prepared.Shear tests were performed on these bonded rock-cement joints to investigate the shear response and failure modes considering the effect of applied normal stress and interface morphology.Meanwhile,the two-dimensional particle flow code(PFC2D)was utilized to model the entire shear process of bonded rock-cement interfaces.The macroscopic shear behavior and mesoscopic failure mechanism were comprehensively investigated by the laboratory test and numerical simulation.The results showed that the shear stress-displacement curves of bonded rock-cement joints exhibit two distinct peaks,and the shear stress evolution can be categorized into four stages including elastic growth,rapid stress drop,secondary stress growth,and progressive softening.Significantly,the number of acoustic emission events also exhibits two distinct peaks related to the double peak of the shear stress curves.The failure of bonded rock-cement interfaces is mainly induced by shear fractures,while the failure of rock and cement blocks is primarily caused by tensile fractures.The number of shear cracks in the bonded rock-cement interfaces reaches the peak when the shear stress reaches the primary peak;whereas as the shear stress continuously approaches the residual stage,the fracture of the bonded rock-cement joints is primarily characterized by tensile cracks in the blocks.
文摘This paper investigates the mechanisms of rock failure related to axial splitting and shear failure due to hoop stresses in cylindrical specimens.The hoop stresses are caused by normal viscous stress.The rheological dynamics theory(RDT)is used,with the mechanical parameters being determined by P-and S-wave velocities.The angle of internal friction is determined by the ratio of Young's modulus and the dynamic modulus,while dynamic viscosity defines cohesion and normal viscous stress.The effect of frequency on cohesion is considered.The initial stress state is defined by the minimum cohesion at the elastic limit when axial splitting can occur.However,as radial cracks grow,the stress state becomes oblique and moves towards the shear plane.The maximum and nonlinear cohesions are defined by the rock parameters under compressive strength when the radial crack depth reaches a critical value.The efficacy and precision of RDT are validated through the presentation of ultrasonic measurements on sandstone and rock specimens sourced from the literature.The results presented in dimensionless diagrams can be utilized in microcrack zones in the absence of lateral pressure in rock masses that have undergone disintegration due to excavation.

文摘The shear characteristics of the interface formed between a cemented tailings backfill(CTB)and surrounding rocks play a cru-cial role in the design and stability of underground goafs.To investigate the shear behavior of CTB-rock interfaces,rock samples repres-enting the topography of surrounding rocks were constructed using 3D morphology scanning and engraving techniques.A series of direct shear tests were conducted on the CTB rock samples to examine the influence of the cement-tailings ratio on the interfacial shear behavi-or.The results showed that the compressive strength of the CTB and shear strength of the CTB-rock interface decreased with decreasing cement proportion.With deceasing cement content,the failure area of the CTB after the test increased,and the roughness of the newly generated interface reduced.A digital image correlation analysis revealed that the compressive stress concentration in the region with an obtuse angle with respect to the shear direction was the primary cause of CTB failure.Moreover,the correlation between the wear area and the silicon-dense area helped confirm that the silicon particles are more prone to failure in these areas than in other regions.Our find-ings provide new insights into the shear sliding mechanism at CTB-rock interfaces and can aid in the selection of the cement-tailings ra-tio at engineering sites.For example,if the horizontal principal stress of the surrounding rock mass in a backfilling area is relatively high,the cement content can be reduced for CTB applications.

文摘Embedding optical fiber sensors into composite materials offers the advantage of real-time structural monitoring.However,there is an order-of-magnitude difference in diameter between optical fibers and reinforcing fibers,and the detailed mechanism of how embedded optical fibers affect the micromechanical behavior and damage failure processes within composite materials remains unclear.This paper presents a micromechanical simulation analysis of composite materials embedded with optical fibers.By constructing representative volume elements(RVEs)with randomly distributed reinforcing fibers,the optical fiber,the matrix,and the interface phase,the micromechanical behavior and damage evolution under transverse tensile and compressive loads are explored.The study finds that the presence of embedded optical fibers significantly influences the initiation and propagation of microscopic damage within the composites.Under transverse tension,the fiber-matrix interface cracks first,followed by plastic cracking in the matrix surrounding the fibers,forming micro-cracks.Eventually,these cracks connect with the debonded areas at the fiber-matrix interface to form a dominant crack that spans the entire model.Under transverse compression,plastic cracking first occurs in the resin surrounding the optical fibers,connecting with the interface debonding areas between the optical fibers and the matrix to form two parallel shear bands.Additionally,it is observed that the strength of the interface between the optical fiber and the matrix critically affects the simulation results.The simulated damage morphologies align closely with those observed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM).These findings offer theoretical insights that can inform the design and fabrication of smart composite materials with embedded optical fiber sensors for advanced structural health monitoring.

文摘The rock mass failure induced by deep mining exhibits pronounced spatial heterogeneity and diverse mechanisms,with its microseismic responses serving as effective indicators of regional failure evolution and instability mechanisms.Focusing on the Level VI stope sublayers in the Jinchuan#2 mining area,this study constructs a 24-parameter index system encompassing time-domain features,frequency-domain features,and multifractal characteristics.Through manifold learning,clustering analysis,and hybrid feature selection,15 key indicators were extracted to construct a classification framework for failure responses.Integrated with focal mechanism inversion and numerical simulation,the failure patterns and corresponding instability mechanisms across different structural zones were further identified.The results reveal that multiscale microseismic characteristics exhibit clear regional similarities.Based on the morphological features of radar plots derived from the 15 indicators,acoustic responses were classified into four typical types,each reflecting distinct local failure mechanisms,stress conditions,and plastic zone evolution.Moreover,considering dominant instability factors and rupture modes,four representative rock mass instability models were proposed for typical failure zones within the stope.These findings provide theoretical guidance and methodological support for hazard prediction,structural optimization,and disturbance control in deep metal mining areas.

文摘Utilizing coarse aggregates containing mining waste rock for backfilling addresses the strength requirements and reduces the expenses associated with binder and solid waste treatment.However,this type of material is prone to aggregate segregation,which can lead to uneven deformation and damage to the backfill.We employed an image-segmentation method that incorporated machine learning to analyze the distribution information of the aggregates on the splitting surface of the test blocks.The results revealed a nonlinear rela-tionship between aggregate segregation and variations in solid concentration(SC)and cement/aggregate ratio(C/A).The SC of 81wt%-82wt%and C/A of 10.00wt%-12.50wt%reflect surges in fluid dynamics,friction effects,and shifts in their dominance.A uniaxial compression experiment,supplemented with additional strain gauges and digital image correlation technology,enabled us to analyze the mechanical properties and failure mechanism under the influence of aggregate segregation.It was found that the uniaxial compressive strength,ranging from 1.75 MPa to 12.65 MPa,is linearly related to both the SC and C/A,and exhibits no significant relation-ship with the degree of segregation in numerical terms.However,the degree of segregation affects the development trend of the elastic modulus to a certain extent,and a standard deviation of the aggregate area ratio of less than 1.63 clearly indicates a higher elastic modu-lus.In the pouring direction,the top area of the test block tended to form a macroscopic fracture surface earlier.By contrast,the compressibility of the bottom area was greater than that of the top area.The intensification of aggregate segregation widened the differences in the deformation and failure characteristics between the different areas.For samples with different uniformities,significant differences in local deformation ranging from 515.00μεto 1693.70μεwere observed during the stable deformation stage.The extreme unevenness of the aggregate leads to rapid crack penetration in the sample,causing macroscopic tensile failure and resulting in premature structural failure.

文摘Loess-mudstone landslides are common in the Loess Plateau.Investigations into the mechanical theory of loess-mudstone landslides have become a challenging undertaking due to the distinctive interfacial properties of loess-mudstone and the unique water sensitivity characteristics of mudstone.Hence,it is imperative to develop innovative mechanical models and mathematical equations specifically tailored to loess-mudstone landslides.In this study,we analyze the fracture mechanism of the loess-mudstone sliding zone using plastic fracture mechanics and develop a unique fracture yield model.To calculate the energy release rate during the expansion of the loess-mudstone interface tip region,the shear fracture energy G is applied,which reflects both the yield failure criterion and the fracture failure criterion.To better understand the instability mechanism of loess-mudstone landslides,equilibrium equations based on G are established for tractive,compressive,and tensile loess-mudstone landslides.Based on the equilibrium equation,the critical length Lc of the sliding zone can be used for the safety evaluation of loess-mudstone landslides.In this way,this study proposes a new method for determining the failure mechanism and equilibrium equation of loessmudstone landslides,which resolves their starting mechanism,mechanical equilibrium equations,and safety evaluation indicators,thus justifying the scientific significance and practical value of this research.

文摘Cemented tailings backfill(CTB)is a crucial support material for ensuring the long-term stability of underground goafs.A comprehensive understanding of its compressive mechanical behavior is essential for improving engineering safety.Although extensive studies have been conducted on the uniaxial compressive properties of CTB,damage constitutive models that effectively capture its damage evolution process remain underdeveloped,and its failure mechanisms are not yet fully clarified.To address these gaps,this study conducted systematic uniaxial compression tests on CTB specimens prepared with varying cement-tailings ratios.The results revealed distinct compaction and softening phases in the stress−strain curves.A lower cement-tailings ratio significantly reduced the strength and deformation resistance of CTB,along with a decrease in elastic energy accumulation at peak stress and dissipation energy in the post peak stage.Based on these findings,a modified damage constitutive model was developed by introducing a correction factor,enabling accurate simulation of the entire uniaxial compression process of CTB with different cement-tailings ratios.Comparative analysis with classical constitutive models validated the proposed model’s accuracy and applicability in describing the compressive behavior of CTB.Furthermore,particle size distribution and acoustic emission tests were employed to investigate the influence of cement-tailings ratio on failure mechanisms.The results indicated that a lower cement-tailings ratio leads to coarser particle sizes,which intensify shear-related acoustic emission signals and ultimately result in more pronounced macroscopic shear failure.This study provides theoretical support and practical guidance for the optimal design of CTB mix ratios.

文摘As core components of precision-guided projectiles,projectile-borne components are highly susceptible to failure or even damage in complex high-overload environments,thereby significantly compromising launch reliability and safety.However,accurately characterizing the mechanical behavior of propellants remains challenging due to the limitations in the current internal ballistic theory and the constraints of large-scale artillery firing experiments.This complicates the high-precision numerical modeling of projectile launch,and obstructs investigations into the failure mechanisms of projectile-borne components.Therefore,this paper identifies propellant parameters using the computational inverse method under uncertainty,further establishes high-precision numerical models of projectile launch,and explores the failure mechanisms of projectile-borne components in complex high-overload environments.First,a projectile launching experiment is meticulously designed and executed to obtain the breech pressure and muzzle velocity.Then,a general simulation model is built,and the powder burn model is used to simulate the ignition and combustion.Subsequently,the propellant parameters are effectively identified with the computational inverse method by the combination of the experiments and simulations.A high-precision numerical model of projectile launch is modified with the parameters validated by another experiment,and the high-overload characteristics during projectile launch are thoroughly analyzed based on this model.Finally,the high-overload characteristics of projectile-borne components are analyzed to elucidate the stress variation laws and to reveal the failure mechanisms influenced by time and spatial locations.This research provides an effective method for perfectly identifying propellant parameters and building high-precision numerical models of projectile launch.Additionally,it provides significant guidance for the anti-high overload design and analysis of projectile-borne components.

文摘Water-induced disasters in long-distance pipelines are prevalent geological hazards,characterized by their frequency and widespread distribution.The complexity of factors contributing to pipeline damage in practical engineering poses a significant challenge for analysis using solely theoretical models.This study systematically reveals the cross-scale failure mechanism of long-distance pipelines under hydrodynamic impact through the combination of multi-scale experimental representation and theoretical modeling.Employing a combination of macroscopic measurements,advanced material testing of residual samples from failed pipelines,and consideration of operational conditions and environmental factors,the failure modes is systematically analyzed.The findings reveal that under the vibrations induced by water impulses,the pipe material exhibits a pronounced ratchet effect,leading to an 8.92%reduction in elongation at break.Furthermore,the Bauschinger effect is observed,resulting in a 2.95%decrease in yield strength.Cyclic hardening significantly diminishes the impact toughness of the weld by 22.2%.Notably,at high vibration frequencies of approximately 18.98 Hz,the stress concentration in the girth weld near the axial midpoint of the pipe section initiates cracking,ultimately leading to failure under the alternating load generated by the oscillation.This study provides valuable insights into the scientific understanding of pipeline failure mechanisms under water impact,contributing to the development ofmore robust and resilient pipeline systems.

文摘Ceramic matrix composites have broad application prospects in the aerospace field due to their high temperature resistance and oxidation resistance.The effect of temperature and environment atmosphere on the fracture toughness and failure mechanisms of two-dimensional plain-woven SiC_(f)/SiC composites was investigated.The results show that they exhibit pseudo-plastic deformation behavior at different temperatures.The fracture toughness is as high as 48 MPa m^(1/2)at room temperature,and gradually decreases with rising temperature.The difference in fracture toughness between argon and air initially increases and then decreases with rising temperature.Furthermore,the high-temperature failure mechanisms of these composites were analyzed through macro and micro analysis.Based on this,a physic-based temperature-dependent fracture toughness model considering matrix toughness,plastic power,fiber pull-out,and residual thermal stress was developed for fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites.The model has been well validated by experimental results.An analysis of influencing factors regarding the evolution of fracture toughness was conducted by the proposed model.This work contributes to a better understanding of the mechanical performance evolution and failure mechanisms of ceramic matrix composites under multifield coupling conditions,thereby promoting their applications.

文摘Steep bedding slopes are widely distributed in Southwestern China’s mountainous regions and have complex seismic responses and instability risks,causing casualties and property losses.Considering the high-seismic-intensity environment,the dynamic failure evolution and instability mechanism of high-steep bedding slopes are simulated via the discrete element method and shaking table test.The dynamic response characteristics and cumulative failure effects of slopes subjected to continuous ground motion are investigated.The results show that the dynamic response characteristics of slopes under continuous earthquakes are influenced by geological and topographic conditions.Elevation has a distinct impact on both the slope interior and surface,with amplification effects more pronounced on the surface.The weak interlayers have different influences on the dynamic amplification effect of slopes.Weak interlayers have dynamic magnification effects on the slope surface at relative elevations of 0-0.33 and 0.82-1.0 but have weakening effects between 0.33 and 0.82.Moreover,the weak interlayers also have controlling effects on the dynamic instability mode of slopes.The characteristics of intergranular contact failure,fracture propagation,and displacement distribution are analyzed to reveal the dynamic failure evolution and instability mechanism through the discrete-element model.The dynamic instability process of slopes includes three stages:fracture initiation(0-0.2g),fracture expansion(0.2g-0.3g),and sliding instability(0.3g-0.6g).This work can provide a valuable reference for the seismic stability and reinforcement of complex slopes.

文摘Taking the Pusa Collapse in Nayong County,Guizhou Province,China as a case study,this paper investigates the impact of multi-layer coal mining on karst mountains characterized by deep fissures.Based on field investigations and employing discrete element numerical simulations,the deformation and failure mechanisms of karst mountain containing deep and large fissures under multi-seam mining conditions was investigated.The influence of the direction of coal seam extraction and the sequence of extraction between multiple coal seams on the failure modes of karst mountain with deep and large fissures was studied.The results indicate that underground mining primarily manifests in the development of mininginduced fissures in the mountain body,subsidence and deformation of slope masses,and triggering the expansion of existing fissures,further driving overall deformation and damage to the slopes.Deep and large fissures control the deformation and failure modes of the slopes,with closer and longer deep and large fissures near the slope surface exerting greater influence on the slope mass.The impact of mining in the same coal seam direction on the slopes is mainly reflected in the process of slope deformation and failure.Downslope mining directly leads to overall subsidence of the slope mass,squeezing the front and lower parts of the slope mass.Upslope mining initially causes the foot of the slope to sink and the entire slope mass to move outward,and continuous mining leads to overall settlement and downward compression deformation of the slope.The sequence of mining between multiple coal seams mainly affects the overall and local deformation values of the slope mass.Downward mining leads to increased overall subsidence of the slope mass and exacerbates the backward tilt of the slope top.

文摘Nacre-like structures exhibit excellent mechanical properties under low-velocity impact,but the effectiveness of the nacre-like designs under high-velocity impact remains unclear.In this study,the process of a spherical projectile impacting on a nacre-like plate over a wide range of velocities is simulated using the finite element method.A three-dimensional finite element model is constructed and validated against the test data of the target perforation in terms of residual velocity and fracture morphology.The effects of impact velocity,interface strengths,and geometric sizes on the impact resistance capabilities are systematically investigated,and a dimensionless geometrical parameter is proposed to reveal the mechanism affecting the fracture toughness of nacre-like materials.It is found that the impact resistance of the nacre-like material gradually weakens with impact velocity in-creasing and is inferior to that of homogeneous plates under high-velocity impact.Moreover,the fracture toughness of nacre-like materials depends on the competition mechanism between interfacial enhancement and strength weakening at different impact velocities.These findings provide significant guidance on applying bio-inspired structures to design protective materials.
