Understanding the interaction between supports and the surrounding rock is necessary for effective rockburst control. In this study, the squeezing behavior of the surrounding rock is analyzed in rockburst roadways, and a mechanical model of rockbursts is established considering the dynamic support stress, thus deriving formulas and providing characteristic curves for describing the interaction between the support and surrounding rock. Design principles and parameters of supports for rockburst control are proposed. The results show that only when the geostress magnitude exceeds a critical value can it drive the formation of rockburst conditions. The main factors influencing the convergence response and rockburst occurrence around roadways are geostress, rock brittleness, uniaxial compressive strength, and roadway excavation size. Roadway support devices can play a role in controlling rockburst by suppressing the squeezing evolution of the surrounding rock towards instability points of rockburst. Further, the higher the strength and the longer the impact stroke of support devices with constant resistance, the more easily multiple balance points can be formed with the surrounding rock to control rockburst occurrence. Supports with long impact stroke allow adaptation to varying geostress levels around the roadway, aiding in rockburst control. The results offer a quantitative method for designing support systems for rockburst-prone roadways. The design criterion of supports is determined by the intersection between the convergence curve of the surrounding rock and the squeezing deformation curve of the support devices.展开更多

文摘The stratum lithology and geological structure of the highway tunnel in the mountainous areas of western China are complex,and the engineering geological conditions are complicated.When the highway tunnel passes through different lithological strata,its structural design and construction technology are completely diff erent.Therefore,in order to support the tunnel design and construction,the tunnel survey Among them,the identification of the contact boundary between magmatic rock and metamorphic rock and the grade of surrounding rock is very important.Through magnetotelluric survey of the Mupi tunnel of Jiuzhaigou-Mianyang highway on G8513 line,2D forward numerical simulation,1D,2D,3D inversion,and engineering geological analysis,it is revealed that the electrical characteristics of each layer,focusing on the identification of the contact boundary between magmatic rock and metamorphic rock.This study provides the electrical characteristics of the magmatic rock and metamorphic rock contact boundary of the Mupi Tunnel.It is speculated that the boundary is revealed by the tunnel construction excavation,which verifies the correctness of the geophysical inversion model and provides a more detailed design basis for the tunnel design.I believe that taking the Mupi Tunnel survey as an example,through this research,it can provide detailed geophysical evidence for highway tunnels to distinguish between magmatic rock and metamorphic rock.

文摘The shear characteristics of bolted rock joints are crucial for the stability of tunneling and mining,particularly in deep underground engineering,where rock bolt materials are exposed to high stress,water pressure,and engineering disturbance.However,due to the complex interaction between bolted rock joints and various geological contexts,many challenges and unsolved problems arise.Therefore,more investigation is needed to understand the shear performance of bolted joints in the field of deep underground engineering.This study presents a comprehensive review of research findings on the responses of bolted joints subjected to shearing under different conditions.As is revealed,the average shear strength of bolted rock joints increases linearly with the normal stress and increases with the compressive strength of rock until it reaches a stable value.The joint roughness coefficient(JRC)affects the contact area,friction force,shear strength,bending angle,and axial force of bolted rock joints.A mathematical function is proposed to model the relationship between JRC,normal load,and shear strength.The normal stress level also influences the deformation model,load-carrying capacity,and energy absorption ratio of bolts within bolted rock joints,and can be effectively characterized by a two-phase exponential equation.Additionally,the angle of the bolts affects the ratio of tensile and shear strength of the bolts,as well as the mechanical behavior of both bolted rock joints and surrounding rock,which favors smaller angles.This comprehensive review of experimental data on the shear behavior of bolted rock joints offers valuable theoretical insights for the development of advanced shear devices and further pertinent investigations.

文摘Volcanic terrains exhibit a complex structure of pyroclastic deposits interspersed with sedimentary processes,resulting in irregular lithological sequences that lack lateral continuity and distinct stratigraphic patterns.This complexity poses significant challenges for slope stability analysis,requiring the development of specialized techniques to address these issues.This research presents a numerical methodology that incorporates spatial variability,nonlinear material characterization,and probabilistic analysis using a Monte Carlo framework to address this issue.The heterogeneous structure is represented by randomly assigning different lithotypes across the slope,while maintaining predefined global proportions.This contrasts with the more common approach of applying probabilistic variability to mechanical parameters within a homogeneous slope model.The material behavior is defined using complex nonlinear failure criteria,such as the Hoek-Brown model and a parabolic model with collapse,both implemented through linearization techniques.The Discontinuity Layout Optimization(DLO)method,a novel numerical approach based on limit analysis,is employed to efficiently incorporate these advances and compute the factor of safety of the slope.Within this framework,the Monte Carlo procedure is used to assess slope stability by conducting a large number of simulations,each with a different lithotype distribution.Based on the results,a hybrid method is proposed that combines probabilistic modeling with deterministic design principles for the slope stability assessment.As a case study,the methodology is applied to a 20-m-high vertical slope composed of three lithotypes(altered scoria,welded scoria,and basalt)randomly distributed in proportions of 15%,60%,and 25%,respectively.The results show convergence of mean values after approximately 400 simulations and highlight the significant influence of spatial heterogeneity,with variations of the factor of safety between 5 and 12 in 85%of cases.They also reveal non-circular and mid-slope failure wedges not captured by traditional stability methods.Finally,an equivalent normal probability distribution is proposed as a reliable approximation of the factor of safety for use in risk analysis and engineering decision-making.

文摘Percussion drilling is a promising approach for hot dry rock(HDR)fragmentation.However,understanding of HDR fragmentation mechanism under multi-dimensional percussion remains limited and hinders the corresponding drilling performance.Herein,an innovative true triaxial multi-dimensional percussion device was developed for the study of HDR fragmentation mechanism under in-situ temperature and stress conditions.Multi-dimensional percussion,involving both axial and torsional components,was applied to drilling in granite and carbonatite rocks sampled from the typical HDR target areas.Multiscale visualization techniques and a whale optimization-variational mode decomposition algorithm were employed to investigate the rock failure patterns and drilling energy characteristics.Results indicated that multi-dimensional percussion enhances brittle-ductile mixed failure in granite,characterized by transgranular,intergranular,and combined fracture patterns that promote rock cracking.In contrast,carbonatite drillhole displays enhanced brittle fragmentation and tortuous failure surface dominated by transgranular fracture pattern.Frequency-domain characteristics of penetration force signals for multidimensional percussion,especially the significant dominant frequency,amplitude,and high-frequency dissipation,indicate an increase in net energy for drilling into HDR and intensified rock fragmentation.Further,the effect of impact frequency on rock fragmentation performance was emphasized to maximize drilling efficiency.The optimal regulation schemes between axial and torsional impact frequencies are identified as 15 Hz+15 Hz for granite and 30 Hz+15 Hz for carbonatite.The reliability of the optimization approach was validated through a field test that employed a novel impactor in the geothermal well Fushen-1.

文摘The oil and gas stored in deep and ultra-deep carbonate reservoirs is the focus of future exploration and development.Conical PDC(Polycrystalline Diamond Compact)cutter,which is a new kind of PDC cutter,can significantly improve the rate of penetration(ROP)and extend PDC bit life in hard and abrasive formations.However,the breakage characteristics and failure mode of the conical PDC cutter cutting carbonate rock is still masked.In this paper,a series of single-cutter cutting tests were carried out with the conical and conventional PDC cutters.The cutting force,rock-breaking process,surface morphology of cutting grooves and cuttings characteristic were analyzed.Based on the derived formula of the brittle fracture index,the failure model of carbonate rock was quantitatively analyzed under the action of conical and conventional cutter.The results show that the average cutting force of the conical cutter is less than that of the conventional cutter,which means greater stability of the cutting process using the conical cutter.Carbonate rock with calcite as the main component tends to generate blocky rock debris by conical cutter.The height of the cuttings generated by the conical cutter is 0.5 mm higher than that generated by the conventional cutter.The conical cutter exhibits enhanced penetration capabilities within carbonate rock.The accumulation of rock debris in front of the conventional cutter is obvious.Whereas,the conical cutter facilitates the cuttings transport,thereby alleviating drilling stickiness slip.At different cutting depths,the conical cutter consistently causes asymmetric jagged brittle tensile fracture zones on both sides of the cutting groove.Calculations based on the brittle fracture index demonstrate that the brittle fracture index of the conical cutter generally doubles that of the conventional cutter.For carbonate rock,the conical cutter displays superior utilization of brittle fracture abilities.The research findings of this work offer insights into the breakage process and failure mode of carbonate rock by the conical cutter.

文摘We present a grid-growth method to reconstruct 3D rock joints with arbitrary joint roughness and persistence.In the first step of this workflow,the joint model is divided into uniform grids.Then by adjusting the positions of the grids,the joint morphology can be modified to construct models with desired joint roughness and persistence.Accordingly,numerous joint models with different joint roughness and persistence were built.The effects of relevant parameters(such as the number,height,slope of asperities,and the number,area of rock bridges)on the joint roughness coefficient(JRC)and joint persistence were investigated.Finally,an artificially split joint was reconstructed using the method,and the method's accuracy was evaluated by comparing the JRC of the models with that of the artificially split joint.The results showed that the proposed method can effectively control the JRC of joint models by adjusting the number,height,and slope of asperities.The method can also modify the joint persistence of joint models by adjusting the number and area of rock bridges.Additionally,the JRC of models obtained by our method agrees with that of the artificially split surface.Overall,the method demonstrated high accuracy for 3D rock joint reconstruction.

文摘Rocking the drillstring at the surface during slide drilling is a common method for reducing drag when drilling horizontal wells.However,the current methods for determining the parameters for rocking are insufficient,limiting the widespread use of this technology.In this study,the influence of rocking parameters on the friction-reduction effect was investigated using an axialetorsional dynamic model of the drillstring and an experimental apparatus for rocking-assisted slide drilling in a simulated horizontal well.The research shows that increasing the rocking speed is beneficial improving the friction-reduction effect,but there is a diminishing marginal effect.A method was proposed to optimize the rocking speed using the equivalent axial drag coefficienterocking speed curve.Under the influence of rocking,the downhole weight on bit(WOB)exhibits a sinusoidal-like variation,with the predominant frequency being twice the rocking frequency.The fluctuation amplitude of the WOB in the horizontal section has a linear relationship with the rocking-affected depth.Based on this,a method was proposed to estimate the rockingaffected depth using the fluctuation amplitude of the standpipe pressure difference.Application of this method in the drilling field has improved the rate of penetration and toolface stability,demonstrating the reliability and effectiveness of the methods proposed in this paper.

文摘The shear performance of bolts plays a crucial role in controlling rock mass stability,and the roughness of the joint surface is one of the main factors affecting the mechanical properties of anchored joints.The 2nd generation of negative Poisson ratio(2G-NPR)bolt is a new independently developed material characterized by high strength and toughness.However,the influence of joint surface roughness on its anchorage shear performance remains unexplored.This study involves preparing regular saw-tooth jointed rock masses and conducting laboratory shear comparison tests on unbolted samples,2G-NPR bolts,and Q235 steel anchors.A three-dimensional finite element method,developed by the author,was employed for numerical simulations to analyze the influence of saw-tooth angles on the shear resistance of anchored bolts.The findings show that the anchorage of bolts enhances the shear strength and deformation of saw-tooth rock joints.The 2G-NPR bolts demonstrate superior performance in shear strength and deformation enhancement compared to Q235 steel anchors,including improved toughening and crack-arresting effects.Furthermore,the improvement of the shear strength and displacement of the bolt decreases with the increase of the joint saw-tooth angle.These findings provide a valuable test basis for the engineering application of 2G-NPR bolts in rock mass stabilization.
